the civilian populations. have noticably
Quickened the public interest. both in
this country and in Germany in this
great diplomatic situation.
The British press in general is re-
strained in tone but the average Eng

siders hint at an attempt 20 interfere
with the absolute blockade Of Germany
should England care to enforce this

and i'm spite of the sinking Of four more
British merchantmen, involving the loss
of four lives. Great Britain. still holds

if this step is taken that it will be
