BERLIN, Sept. 15.—Count von Rev- entiow, the naval writer, replies in the Tages Zeitung to-day to British critt- clams of German airship raids over London. He asserts that London is a fortress and that Gir Perey Scott, newly appointed defender of the city from aerial attacks, should order the civil population to depart. The Count declares it is not Ger- many's responsibility that the fort- reas of London has not been evacu- ated and adds that the fallure of the British Government to order the mil- lions of civilians to leave shows “dis- dainful disregard of the principles of humanity, civilization and interna- tional law.” ‘The airship attacks, Count von Rev- entiow insists, are of a purely mili- tary character, and concludes: ‘We hope confidently that the say- ing, ‘Throwing bombs on London,’ will soon be as trite as the phrase, ‘Carrying coals to Newcast The Overseas Nows Agency says: “German newspapers which arrived recently in tho United State: 1 pamphlets advising t jon of American munitio Such @ practice ls designated oMficlally aa stupid and dangerous.
