	R.M.S. Titanic - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Bruce Ismay, who survived, and the ship's builder Thomas Andrews, who was on board to observe any problems and assess the general performance of the new ship.
		Following an inspection by the ship's officers and Thomas Andrews, it was apparent that the Titanic would sink, and shortly after midnight on April 15, lifeboats were ordered to be readied and a distress signal sent out.
		Almost two hours after Titanic sank, RMS Carpathia, commanded by Captain Arthur Henry Rostron, arrived on scene and picked up its first lifeboat at 4:10 AM, even though merely 10 miles away was the Californian, another ship, which had sent ice warnings to the Titanic.

	B&W Picture Place: Titanic postcard
		The I.M.M was an American and German organisation and its principal player was the American J. Pierpont Morgan, a financier, who had created 'trusts' or cartels that eliminated competition in the American road and rail systems (and this was subsequently acted upon by legislation named the Patman Acts)
		White Star was founded by Thomas Henry Ismay, a grand old man who had the misfortune to sire a weak fobbish son named Bruce Ismay who got involved in share manipulation because White Star was financially 'on the rocks'.
		It is sufficient to say that I.M.M bought White Star as a means of removing Cunard (a wholly owned British company that was backed by the British government with low fixed interest loans) from the supremacy of holding the Blue Riband which was the transatlantic speed record held by Cunard for over 20 years.
