est Popular Vote —— Liberals Now Hold Balance of Power.

(Special to The Guardian)

LONDON, May 3l.—The Baldwin government is defeated. At a quarter past five this afternoon, the com- bined opposition has secured wellover' half of the totals in the new House of Commons. But it was equally clear‘ Labor could not secure a majority. although well Ln the lead.

The awry is told by these figures: i Labor 287; Conservatives 251; Liberals , 52; Nationalists 3; Prohibltfonists l; IndependenL-Conservatfvcs 1; In-i dependent-Consfitutionalists l; Iii-- dependent 1. m doubt 1a. Total s15. i

Lloyd George with his 4e Liberals‘

is masher of the situation. Bis lossesi

and gains have ben equalized and his party 1s intact. That is to say 46 Liberals are already returned; 46 Lib- crals sat in the last House at Dissolu- tion. Lloyd George, therefore, has the cheering prospect of adding to his following from the 6'7 ridings yet to report. Some Welsh are certain for his column.

In-the gains and losses column to date Liberals have won 22 seats and. 10st iii. pointing f0 a. final net Shin of at least eight seats. which gives

easier said than done. Falling that, what? Another election in the late autumn. '

At this tabulation Conservative net". losses were 113 and Labor net gains 105. the account. being balanced by eight net Liberal gains. Rldings yet to report will mean some readjust-

i ments to these figures, but not ma-

terial. for the situation 1s at last definitely decided. The ballot box has said its say and soon it. will be time for the statesmen to talk.

The hour is intensely dramatic, but on the other hand it fa common knowledge Labor leaders believe if they are called upon to form a. gov- i ernmcnt; a number of the more ad. i vonced Liberals will swing to their i side, thus definitely breaking up the historical ‘Liberal ' party. This as- sumes Labor will not only have the largest group 1n the House-which apears certain now, but they will be so close to a clear majority that the accession of a few radicals from tho Liberal fold will complete it.
