Great Britain Intensifies
Economic War On
Germany
LCNDON. Apr. 2 —</P»— Great
Britain intensified her economic
war on Germany In a three-fold
drive today and cautioned neutral
nations that aid to the reich might
render them “liable to the hideous
fate that has overtaken previous
victims of German policy.”
Prime Minister Neville Chamber-
lain delivered this warning to
neutrals in a statement In com-
mons in which he announced that
the British stranglehold on Ger-
man trade was being lightened
by
1. Control of the sea with the
navy already having taken "cer-
tain practical steps to interfere
with passage of German cargo
ships from Scandinavia" and halt-
ing Russian ships In far eastern
waters.
2. Trade agreements with neu- j
trals surrounding Germany under
which Britain outbid Germany for
vital products.

/ANE APRIL FOOL prank
^ that backfired with a bang
was pulled late Monday after-
noon bv a trio of El Reno
youngsters, two of them only G
years old and the other 8 years
old, Chief C. O. McCain of the
El Reno fire department re-
lated today.
Supposedly having run out of
other practical jokes to play on
the unsuspecting citizenry, the
trio decided that a grand climax
for April Fool would be to turn
In a false fire alarm. So at 4:40
p. m. Monday the fire depart-
ment received a call to 200
North N avenue.
When they couldn't find a
fire, the firemen promptly trac-
ed the call—a sure and simple
thing to do—and cut short the
April Fool frolic of three very
frightened voungsters who were
told that there should be a
limit to everything, even prac-
tical joking on Apr. 1..
