‘ DEFEATS WILSON

i At the beginning of the new gparliamentary session late in [1960 he ran against Gaitskell |for party chief and was de- .’ feated by 166 votes to 81. a ma- Ijority for Gaitskell of more than Itwo to one. The challenge was never repeated.

‘ At the 1961 party conference. j Gaitskoll em e r g e d victori- lous again. The ban-the-bomb so- lcialists, who a year earlier had inarrowly carried their resolu- ;tion. this time were crushingly defeated. The Labor leader's of- ficial policy gained 4.526.000 votes against 1.756.000 in the proportional representation vote of conference delegates.

Gaitskell‘s conference tri- umph marked the beginning of a new phase in which his per- sonal prestige began to rise rapidly.

This was strikingly demon- ‘strated at the 1962 party con- ference at Brighton.

Although dominated by the thorny issue of Britain’s effort to enter the European Common Market—which Labor officially decided to oppose on present terms available. but not 1! bet- ter conditions can be obtained

skell very much in control of his supporters.

In private he was a man of wide literary and other inter- ests—and he gained much en- joyment from his garden.

One of the biggest disappoint- ments of his career was Labor’s defeat in the 1959 general elec.

P e Minister Macmillan sent the following message to Mrs. Gaitskell

“Your husband and I have been colleagues in the House of Commons for many years and I know how sadly will be missed. not only by members of his own party but by all of us.
