Only a short time after he had won his own seat—though by a reduced majority — the Socialist standardbearer announced: CONCEDE DEFEAT “In view of the results which have now come in. we feel bound te concede the result of the elec- tion. It is obvious that there will be a Conservative government. “It is the will of the people, and we accept it." Cheers greeted the prime min-. ister as he turned up at Con- servative headquarters shortly afterwards. With characteristie understatement Macmillan had this comment on the result: “It has gone off rather well.”’ More exuberant was party chairman Lord Hailsham, whe shouted: “This is the moment of truth.” : Frank Byers, chairman of the Liberal Party, which increased its popular vote, replaced Labor as the second party in more than a few contests and actually gained a seat from the Conserva- tives, said the gutcome proved that “Socialism is out of date.” NO POWER BALANCE “The young people are coming over to us,” he added.
