ade” as light as possible for neutrals. “We intend to do our best to cause the least possible inconvenience to neutrals with whom we have no ‘quarrel — always consistent with Seppe of German exports,” the Prime Minister said. The blockade was formally invoked with publication in the official gazette and all neutrals, including Italy and Japan, despite their angry protests, were being - notified that German goods henceforth are barred from the seas. “Meanwhile, reports in naval quarters said that British warships, blockading the North Atlantic, had captured or sunk 12 German merchant ships which had sailed from the United States disguised as neu-
The report was published by the News Chronicle, quoting a member of the crew of the armed British merchant ship Chitral, which landed at Glasgow yesterday with 11 survivors of the British auxiliary cruiser Rawalpindi. The Rawalpindi, a former liner of 16,697 tons, was sunk in a fight with the German pocket battleship . Deutschland off, the southeast coast of Iceland Thursday. The loss of life was expected to reach 260. While British warships searched the fog-bound North Atlantic for the Deutschland, Mr. Chamberlain praised the crew o fthe Rawalpindi for a brave but hopeless fight. “Those men must have known as goon as they sighted the enemy that there was no chance for them,” the Prime Minister told the House of Commons. Carried on Traditions
“But they had no thought of surtender. They fought at their guns until they could fight no more. Then many of them went to their death. They carried on the great traditions of the Royal Navy.” The intensified sea warfare claimed its 45th ship in 11 days with an official announcement in Berlin today that a submarine had sunk a 10-ton British cruiser east of the Shetland Islands. Earlier, Britain had announced the sinking of the freighter Uskmouth, 2483 tons. Twenty-two of the crew were picked up by a pass{ng steamer and three were missing. The cause of the sinking was not disclosed. Few Days Grace Given
In connection with the blockade, neutral shippers will be given a few days’ grace, to dispose of German exports already in transit, and after that, the war of commerce will start in full fury. Preliminary instructions already have been sent all warship captains :
“you will have power to confiscate and impound all goods of German origin no matter in what ships they are carried or wherever they are bound,” they read. It is estimated that $250,000,000 worth of exports, or 30 per cent of Germany’s normal foreign commerce, will be affected.
France Joins Blockade
- France is invoking an identical blockade. Holland and . Belgium, extensive * dealers in German goods, will be hardest hit and they have sent mild protests. It was believed that special provisions would be made for relieving them bf some of the regtrictions and that some concessions also would be made to Sweden. The story of the Rawalpindi sinking follows: Last Wednesday, while on patrol, she captured a German merchant ship, put a prize crew aboard and sent it to a British port. The next day she encountered the Deutschland, a warship so fast and , with its 11-inch guns, torpedo tubes and scouting airplanes, that only five British and French fighters are considered its match. The Deutschland opened fire and

the Rawalpindi replied feebly, with six-inch guns. Although larger, the Rawalpindi was no match in ‘battle and was blown to pieces in a short while. Most of the Rawalpindi’s crew of 300 went down with her. Eleven were picked up after 23 hours by the Chitral which had aboard the crew of 34 of a German merchant ship. The Germans had scuttled their ship when the Chitral approached it. Naval quariers believed that the Deutschland’s days were numbered. British cruisers and airplanes now were hot on her trail. Several German merchant ships believed headed for a rendezvous with the Deutschland to deliver her fuel and supplies, have been captured lately and sooner or later, if she is not lost in battle, she will have to make for some port, it was said. Another victim of the sea was, the Dutch liner Spaarndam, 8857 tons, which struck a mine 10 miles off the Thames Estuary yesterday, was still burning this morning, visible from shore. Crowds stood on the cliffs watching her burn. Four members of the crew and an elderly woman passenger, Mrs. Fredica Steffens, a native of Utrecht, Holland, were lost.
Paris Reports Six
German Subs Sunk
PARIS, Nov, 28 (U. P.). — Six German submarines have been sunk by naval patrols during the past 10 days, French dispatches said today. The French said also that in addition to the intensified war on the sea one of the most violent combats of the war had occurred 12 miles east of the Moselle River sector on the Western Front. Unfavorable weather conditions greatly reduced operations of both French and German planes, which Sopfined their flights to scouting acvities.

BRUSSELS, Belgium, Nov. 28 (U. P).—Anti-aircraft guns today fired on several foreign airplanes flying over Brussels. The planes appeared about noon, flying at a high altitude. They appeared to be trying to hide behind the clouds. After a few minutes they disappeared toward the West.

Imperialism * Apparently Is Move to Make Soviet Invulnerable.

was seeking a warm-water outlet to the Atlantic whence the powerful fleet which he had commenced to build could sally forth to the seven seas. Stalin is known to entertain similar aspirations. And while he
belabors others for their “imperialism,” he continues his own game of power politics as played by every Tsar since Peter—around Scandinavia, the Black Sea, the Balkans, the. Dardanelles, Turkey, India, Vladivostok and the Far East. This old-fashioned imperialism apparently is designed to make the Soviet Union as nearly invulnerable as possible as a base from which to press on with “the new imperialism. ” Under the old imperialism, ] Babylon, Greece, Rome and their imitators sent out expensive expeditions to dominate weaker nations by force of arms. Thereafter, as dependencies, the subjugated nations paid tribute to the conqueror.
Process Cheaper, Safer
Under the “new imperialism,” it is observed, the process is much cheaper if not simpler and safer. Moscow sends out a handful of disguised agents to direct others who gain control. After which, the country thus taken pays tribute to Moscow. The result is the same, so far as the people are concerned. They are no longer their own masters. China, it is pointed out, has lost to both forms of imperialism. Japan’s soldiers invaded Manchuria while Russia's agents invaded Outer Mongolia, but Manchukuo today is no less a puppet of Tokyo than Outer Mongolia is of Moscow. Thus far the “new: imperialism” has not worked ‘very successfully save in a few isolated spots. But, Moscow’s spokesmen explain, that is because the world was not yet ready for revolution. Today, however, word comes from Moscow . that world revolution is|® again in order. Germany, Britain, France, Japan and China are already at war and others may be sucked in. In the. resultant world chaos and despair, perhaps even the strongest nations will be ready for the little push which Russia can give—if she improves the advantages which are now hers. ; Such, at any rate, is the belief of some of the shrewdest observers in

already pened. ‘Thousands of anti-Finnish mass

held throughout ‘the Soviet Union
yesterday. The Moscow radio gharged shat leaders had been goaded

(Great Britain frequently has been accused of it.). The announcer, a woman, said Russia believed the Finns "threatened Leningrad and
peace would be restored as soon as
.|Soviet demands were filled.
The forerunner to the present situation was a series of territorial}. demands made on Finland. A Finnish mission came here three times to negotiate on them, but broke them off two weeks ago and went home. Russia has demanded territory on the Karelian Isthmus, to guarantee the safety of Leningrad, and island ‘and mainland naval bases in the Gulf of Finland to guarantee Russia's access to. the Baltic.
Finns Calm in Face
Of Russian Threats
HELSINGFORS, Finland, Nov. 28 (U. P).—Finns went about their business as usual Jotlay, maintaining a strange aplomb in the face of Russian threats and abuse of their government. There were no crowds : around government buildings: no queues int front of news stands, and very little to indicate that a crisis was in the offing. The popular .calm seemed to spring either from the belief that Russia would not invade Finland, or, if she did, Finland's Scandinavian friends would come to her aid.
COPENHAGEN, Denmark, Nov. 28 (U. P.).—Danes believed that the Finns were showing infinite patience in the dispute with Russia. The idea here was that Russia might have created a border “incident” to get another Finnish mission back to as| Moscow to renew discussions on Russia’s territorial demands.
OSLO, Norway, Nov. 28 (U. P.). —The newspaper Tidens Tegn said today that “outside Russia, hardly anyone will trust the Russian protest (to Finland). . . . It seems more than accidental that the “incident” on the border should come

LONDON, Nov. 28 28 (U.' P.).—Lord Halifax, Foreign Secretary, told the Soviet Ambassador, Ivan Maisky,| last night that while Britain was observing strict impartiality in the Soviet-Finnish dispute, it hoped Sere would be a peaceful settlement.
BERLIN, Nov.28 (U.P.).—Authoritative sources said today that while Germany was not directly interested jn Russia's quarrel with Finland, the Russian viewpoint was fully understood here and that “a great power has a right to secure i route to the sea and cannot be xpected to breathe through anio lungs.” The spokesman said Britain was “goading Finland on.”

A goal on the floor made the game too easy, so he elevated two of them—one at each end of a rectangular court—over the players’ heads. The height he selected was nine feet, still standard. For goals he used peach baskets, the only available round objects. He made 13 rules, 12 of which survive. Frank Mahan, a member of the class, pointed out that the game needed a name. He suggested “Naismith ball”. The inventor objected, however, and it was agreed that is should be’ called basket-

College and independent basketball players alike, spoke of him as a keen “student” of modern play. Sports promoters in Kansas City honored him by organizing a fast independent circuit and calling it the Naismith League. °' For the last i years, he donated a huge silver trophy to the winning |team of the National Intercollegiate Basketball Tournament in Kansas City, and during the week-long marthon he was an almost constant spectator. It was hard for him to fathom that the game he had conceived had grown until it was America’s most popular winter sport. “You fellows put me in a class with Abner Doubleday, who invented baseball,” he often said. “If basketball filled a need in the winter sports picture, I am glad, but I nothing to do with making it grow. Honestly, I never believed that it ever would be played outside of that gymnasium in Springfield.”

“I wonder if the consumer and
the producer should be at odds over this? We speak of increased stock feed costs as the reason for the price increase. The farmers receive only 4 cents for their quart of milk and the distributors get 8 cents. Where is that 8 cents going? Perhaps the answer to that is the answer to our problem.” C. W. Hunt, of the Indianapolis Milk Foundation, testified later that ~ quart of milk delivered to the consumer’s door cost the distributor a total of 11 8-10 cents. Only one distributor took the stand in favor of repealing the price increase. He was C. D. Bridgeman of the Bridgeman Dairy of Indianapolis. ‘I Am Opposed to Rise’
Mr. Bridgeman said: “I feel that the people of Indianapolis are entitled to 4 per cent (butterfat content) milk and inasmuch as the prices we are discussing today are based on 4 per cent milk, I do not see any reason for distributors being allowed to sell milk for less butterfat content. “I also think that the distributors “|can afford to pay the producer more ‘land not raise the price to the con-
sumer. I am opposed to this price rise,” He then suggested a revamping of prices. to producers “which I feel the distributors in this area can well afford to pay. Under my plan the producers will receive an increase of 21 cents per hundredweight and with no increase to the consumer.” . Among others who spoke before the Board were: Harry S. Shepard, College Avenue Civic League president, who said in part: “Our fight is not with the farmer . « « the distributor is squeezing out the butterfat in milk for byproducts . . . crop conditions have been good and feed prices are low . «+ o the only reason we can see for this price increase is the profithungry milk distributors and we are not willing to pay a monopolistic price so that a few distributors can take the butterfat from milk and give us anything they want to.” Dale Long, representing the Independent Milk Producers of Indianapolis, who said: “I am in favor of the increase in price with a possible decrease in the spring when production is less costly + . . but if we must come before the Milk Board to -argue to get the price up after we give a reduction we better keep our price up all the 'time.” C. Y. Foster, member of the State Board of Agriculture, stated that “50 per cent of the Indiana producers are losing money. Let's all be fair and each consider the problems of the other.” = Carl L. Hedges, manager of the Indianapolis Dairymen’s Co-opera-tive, Inc. defended the increase by saying “I don’t think 1 cent a day makeés a difference to the consumer. I don’t think it will decrease the consumption.” . ‘J. D, Littleton,
