INTENSIFICATION OF BLOCKADE: BRITISH OPINIONS
London, To-day. THE GENERAL LINE OF Home Press comment yes- terday on Mr. Chamberlain's speech is that al- though the intensification of the blockade which he forecast may damage the neutrals, in the long run they will benefit from any measure taken to shorten the war.
"The Times" says that "we are dealing with a criminal na- tion and if in the heat of the battle some blows fall on the neutrals they must bear their injuries as patiently as they can.
"It is their battle as much as ours, and it is not unreason- able for us to ask neutrals to apply a benevolent and not a strict interpretation of the laws of neutrality.

The "Manchester Guardian”. says without facing grave dangers. that Germany's criminal attacks neutrals justifies reprisals under in- ternational law. It means 'hardship for the neutrals if the blockade is intensified, but the thing the neutrals will feel most and mention the least is the feeling that if they, fulfil the British demands it may involve them with Germany.
A similar point is made by the "Glasgow Herald,” which, how ever, goes on to say that we should not wait to see what Hitler is go- ing to do, but that there should be other action against: Germany as well.
The "Daily Express" ✓ insists we must seek other means. as well of bringing the war to a close. We must adopt sterner methods and harsher
measures.
