Newspaper Page TexttPAGE sdc THE NEWS AND THE HERALD. KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON November 21, 1939 UNRESTRICTED BLOCKADE OF SET GERMANY (Continued From Peg One) which could b seen from the shore, carried a crew of 180 and i8 passengers, one of them Brit ish. A lifeboat and other craft rushed to the rescue, and some survivors wore brought to ahore. British reprisals against Ger many, extending the blockade to exports aa well aa Imports, would mean concentration on neutral shipping, since Germany herself baa practically no ships at sea now. The aim would be to halt com pletely all sea commerce with Ger many. Chamberlain made his state ment in reply to a question by op position Laborlte Leader Clement Attlee on whether the government proposed to take any action as a result of the laying of mines which sank The Netherlands pas senger ship Simon Bolivar and other vessels over the weekend. Today a British mine-laying trawler, the Mastiff, was added to the toll, becoming Britain's sixth admitted naval loss of the war. In reply to Attlee, Chamberlain explained that under international law If unanchored mines are used they should become harmless in one hour, at the most, after those who laid them lost control over them. He said none of these pro visions had been observed by Ger many In laying the mines which Britain considers the cause of re cent ship losses. (Germany has denied her mines were responsible tor the Binking of the Simon Bolivar.) After recounting the loss of more than ten ships, both British and neutral, and many lives dur ing the past six days, chamberlain said: "I may remind the bouse that In the last war, aa a measure of Justified reprisals for submarine attacks on merchant ships, the ex ports of German origin or owner ship were made subject to seiiure on the high seas. "Many violations of Internation al law and the ruthless brutality of German methods have decided us to follow a similar course now, and an order In council will short ly be Issued giving effect to this decision." Cheers greeted the statement. This step means that Britain will seek to shut oft Germany's export trade, from which she aC' quires foreign exchange, as well aa the tlow of imports to Germany. y " Yon get all . 4 advantages In ( SCIIKXLEY'S J) l Light-Bodied I J RED LABEL JJ 1.

Receipt About H, 500,000,. 000. Deficit About $1,600,000,000. Th amount of neat year's revenue constitutes perhap the biggest question mark In the president's budget-making.

At th sam time, changing bus! ness conditions have altored the revenue estimates which were ex pected last January to result in a deficit ot about 33,300,000,000 so that current guesses of this years deficit rang between 1 3,' 000,000,000 and 14,000,000,000.
