ROTECTING ROYAL

FAMILY FROM RAIDS.

LONDON, Feb. 20.- The private a-

partments ot' the lloyal Family in Buckingham Palace are being protect- ed against possible German air raids. Ever since the Zeppelin raid of ii few weeks ago, there have been reports in circulation here that protective mea- sures would be adopted for at least part. of iiuekiiigliain Palace.

Much attention was attracted to-

day, when workmen began spreading heavy wire netting over that part. of the palace occupied :is residential qiiarters by the lloyal l~‘ainily. This netting was placed on a heavy frame- work trestle which staiids six feet or more from the roof proper.

Among other places in London pro-

tected by a similar screen are the houses of Duchess ot' Marlborough, one ot' the Rothchild and some of the public institutions.
