British Election campaign

While the election results in the United Kingdom were incomplete at the time of writing, the trend, as anticipated. pointed to the downfall of the Labour Govern- ment and the return of the Conservatives under their indomitable leader, Rt. Hon. Winston Churchill. The eyes of the world have been on the campaign, and its con- sequences are likely to be far reaching on; British policies abroad and at home. i

The six-year record on which Labour based its appeal to the electorate included the tremendous task of postwar recon- struction. Measures like the national health service and education programme loomed large' in the Government cam- paign. The Conservatives stressed more particularly the worsening international situation, resulting partly from Western rca1'mamcnt but complicated by the Per- sian disaster and the trouble in Egypt, which they attributed largely to the Gov-. ernment's vacillating policy. l

Chronicling the series of misfortunes that have struck at British prestige in various parts of the world and given grievous injury to its strength. Mr.

Churchill warned repeatedly that neither peace nor prosperity could be obtained by "a retreat from responsibility." That was the ultimate issue as he saw it, transcend- ing all the issues of merely local impor- lance.

The "war mongering" charge which was levelled at the Conservative leader did the Laboritcs no good. It was, as Mr. Churchill aptly termed it. a "foul", and a breach of the Britishcr's sense of fair play. Speak- ing at one of the closing rallies of the campaign, he called it "a cruel and un- grateful accusation." and the opposite of; the truth. ”I think it is quite true," he: added. ”that. at a very dark moment of our history. I was called upon to take the lead for more than five years of awful war, and that I did my best until victory was won. But that that should be made the ground that I want to have a third world war to show off my talents is base and mean and beyond compare." These simple words, stripped of all oratorical ad- ornment. must have touched many hearts by their blunt sincerity. l

Locally the major controversy seemed to centre about the cost of living. Statis- tics were uscd by both parties to prove their opponents wrong-it all depended on the periods on which the indices were bas- ed and on different items of expenditure. Every party reportedly had an election poster that read: "Vote--for lower prices" or words to that effect.

When the House of Commons was dis-i solved for the elections the standings were: Labour. 314, Conservatives and al-. lies, 206; Liberals, 9, others, 3, vacant, 3.l As the results came through last evcning,l Labour prospects had dwindled to a mini-i mum and only the size of the Conserva-l live majority seemed in doubt.

Pensions Measures Passed ,

The new Old Age Assistance Act, pro-. viding for payments up to S40 per month for persons between 6.3 and 69 years on a means t.est basis, went. through unanimous- ly in the Legislature, the only Opposition

criticism being on the score of its inadc-l

quacy. However, the Act. can always be amended to provide for a larger Provin- cial contribution if revenue is available. The cost is estimated by the Provincial Treas-l urer, Hon. Mr. Darby, at &'587,000 annual- ly. as against 3399.000 under the present old age pensions scheme which is being

taken over entirely by the Federal Govcrn- gains for Labor, Conservatives and Farm- ment next year. This would leave some- ers, and heavy losses for Communists. The thing on the right side of the ledger; but vote for Non-Labor Fusion and the Christ- : former Provincial Treasurer. Mr. Wil- tan Peoples' Party also dropped percentage- ltam Hughes, warned that the maximum wise. and the same is true of non-political payments by the Province under the As- lists and the splinter Smallholders, Work- reached for :1 er: and Fisherman's Party. The Liberal

from the measures enacted, the session served a good purpose in bringing the mem- bers, new and old, together for the first time, and in enabling the former to get their bearings before the regular session begins. On this occasion. formal speech- making was entirely eliminated and much time was saved by this common-sense pro- ccdure. If by agreement between the party leaders such speeches can be cur- tailed within reasonable limits in future- both with regard to their length and the number participating-it would be a great improvement.

No town look: the oame to a doctor as it. does to other people. There are a lot of secret doors in it. which he and no one else may enter. and herein lies much of the fascination which the practice of medicine has for those who de- vote their lives to it, And herein also lies the fascination of this book written by ll. Nova Scotian doctor.

His first patient was a sick baby fed only on dried cod. His wed- ding gift to his bride was a cheque for five hundred dollars. but whether or not he managed to raise the price of a stamp for it is not revealed.

Student: of the impact of radio and television on political cam- paigning will be interested in Great. Britain": comparative in- difference to these new-tangled devices. Although the Brlt.l:h are or. the verge of one of the most important national election: they have ever held. they have sched- uled only five hours of radio cam- paigning for all parties. and so far. none at all of televiaion cam- paigning.

British radio is. of course, gov- ernment controlled, and its time is not for sale. But five hours be- tween now and Oct. 25. Election Day, have been divided. on an equitable basis. for campaign promises. pledge: and recrlmin- otion:. To make sure that. no one gets in any side rcmarka. political figures who would normally ap- pear on forum or debate program: have been gently but. firmly bar- red from the air during the com- paign period.
