British Ministers, who are directly responsible for the safety of Great Britain, are disposed to take a grave view of the airship raid on the East Coast that has called forth the execration of the civilized world. They believe it was a trial trip designed to ascertain how far such operations were feasible in more important directions. Possibility of an organized attack on London, England, is spoken of lightly in some quarters. That is not a view of the matter Ministers having at hand special information are disposed to take. In their opinion London with its teeming population, its historic buildings, is the deliberately chosen objective.
