Candidates from more than 30 political parties will make their final bids to their home constitu- encies tomorrow for election to the 025-seat House of Commons. The race essentially is between the governing Labor Panty—which introduced socialism into Britain after its sweeping victory in 1945 —snd the Conservative opposition which would stop further nation- alization and claims it could run present state enterprises and ser- ‘vlces more cheaply and edlficlent- y. Weather puldl¢l.l0flS were that it would be cold and cloudy elec- tion day. with occasi 1 rain. Thursday the polls will be open from 7 AM. until 0 PM. (3 AM. until 4 P.M. AST). The .results of about 240 urban s.unsi“uencies are expected to be known before bai- lot countlns ltops for the night. By noon Friday a sufficient num- ber of results are expected to establish the outcome. Both Prime Minister Attlee and Conservative leader W in s 1 o n Churchill spoke in their own baili- wicks. lndependentt surveys by news- papers and public-opinion polls indicate that both major parties each will receive about 40 per cent of the vote. Redistribution has left the boundaries of only 02 ridings unchanged, confusing predictions. Some observers see the possi- bility that neither Labor nor Con- serve-tives will receive I working majority in the new House which is to meet March i. In that case a new election prdbabiy would be called since Labor and Conserva- tives have said they will not take part in a coalition. The Liberals, third strongest party. are not given a chance of forming a government. How. over. some observers claim if neither major party has a work- ing majonity. the Liberals may hold the balance of power. lossr Berlin To In Occupied May 28 BERLIN, Feb. 21—(AP) —Ber- lln's Communist youth openly boasted today this they intend t° occupy the whole city May 28- Thu lg W_hitaund the day the Communists plan a march of half a million blue-ahirted youths in Berlin.

He hop- ed that the Massey Commission. now investigating the Canadian cultural scheme, would recommen‘ that the Federal Government grant. financial aid to put universities on their feet. Members on both sides of the chamber paid tribute to the memories of Senate a John Sinclair (PC — Prince Edward Island) and E.C. st. Pere (D- Quebec). who died -within the last month. senator Golding, who comes from the farming district of Huron- Perth. expressed the wish of these counties that the King and Queen once more pay a visit to Canada. to renew the friendship cemented in the royal visit of 1930. Defence Necessary He said he noted that the Gov- ernment was planning to make heavy expenditures for a defence program: While ted" such expenditures they knew they were necessary so Canadians could co-operate fully with other members of the North Atlantic family. Defence was necessary because of the prevalence of the "forces of materialism." "No matter how much we love peace, «we are never going to lower ourselves as a nation from what we believe is right." Turning to the Canadian trade pict/ure. senator Golding said Can- ada must have patience. some outlets for Canadian goods had dried out. but new ones would be found.

Feb. 21 -— (AP) — The United States broke off ro- iations with Communist Bulgaria today in the touuhest American action thus far against any sov- iet-bioc country. Clfmaxing a "long series of in- tolerable restrictions and ind it- ities" against the us. legati in sofia, American Minister Donald 1!. Heath and his entire staff were ordered home.
