Twenty were killed and 88 wounded, all civilians, with four exceptions, the London press bureau announced. The extent of the property damage was withheld by the cen- sors. It is known, however, from an earlier press bureau an- nouncement that many fires occurred, tho it was claimed they had been controlled at midnight. Private messages indicated the raiders struck at the very heart of the metropolis. Air raids against England thus far killed 122, and wounded] arg es over 300, according to the official count, compiled from press “TEPPELIN —MARCONI BY WILLIAM G, SHEPHERD LONDON, Sept. 9.—“If | were ount Zeppelin | would protest be- fore the world against the sere announcements Strike Heart of City Never previously tho have the raiders reached the heart fof London, altho on August 17 they reached the cast and | northeast suburbs—-workingmen’s sections—killing 36 and wounding 36.
