All If Elected

IDNDON (Reuters)-The Labor Plfly Timid"! Proposed a plan to give dominion status to the smallest territories in the Com. monwealth.

The proposals are contained in the third of a series of colonial policy pamphlets. to be submit- ted to the party's annual conven- tion this fall-

The Labor party says it would put its plan into operation if it gained control of Parliament at the next general election, ex- pected in 1960.

The cornerstone of the program is the right of scli-determinaion for every colony. lf full dominion status were not practicable, some colonies might become members of a federation or integrate into a sovereign state.
