LONDON, Feb. 2.—Thera has
been no attempt made to conceal
the effects of the German Zeppelin

It has resulted In a complete
change in the attitude of the union
ists towards conscription. The
unionists Jost many of their wives
and families, all the dead belpg of
the workii g class. This had re
sulted in a very embittered feeling
towards Germany. Zeppelin war
meetings have been held In various
cantors since the raid, and with the
result that conscription has in many
cases been actively upheld.
Eight of the wounded died today
