AELEE RESIGNS card Labor as "our ;:ovcrii- iiiciit" respond petulantly to :1 party wliicii for many Brit- ons still symbolizes the days of tliviln tests and- unemploy- ment? (An early statement by union chief Arthur Deakin iiidirzilcd organized labor will keep an open mind). The Conservatives come to power committed to a brand oi "welfare capitalisni". combining private enterprise and the wei- tare state. A substantial section of opinion fears the party may siiirk from doing what they be- lieve is necessary for the coun- try's economic health in fear of aiilagonizini: public opinion. Party titans of both main po- litical hues were largely rc- cicctcd. which followed closely the pattern of the 1950 election. The difference was that this time it was the Conservative Party rather than Labor which won the extra handful of votes on which the fate of government rcsis. There are rumors that Church- ill wili step out. of public life antlpbe succeeded by Eden after makim: an all-out attempt to end the cold war with Russia. During the campaign Churchill described world peace as ”the last great prize I seek to win." He has repeatedly called for a face-to-face meeting of Joseph Stalin and the leaders of the west. to seek A long-term settle- ment of east-west differences.

Tory roles in rtitai Attlee Resigns When it. was over Attlec, sombre figure in his usual'dark l-lomburg hat and coat, drove to Buckingham Palace to hand his resignation to the King. Church- ill visited the palace later to be- gin the formalities that go with the high office. The two inter- views were the first. political vis- ilors the King has had since he was operated on Sept. 23. It was reported that the King got out of bed to receive them. in a sober victory statement. Churchill foresaw a hard time ahead but pledged the Conserva- tives would seek the aid. of all men of goodwill to restore Brit- ain. to her rightful place in the world-"3. need which burns in the hearts of men far beyond these shores." It appeared that Churchill would be slightly better placed than Attiee had been to govern ef- fectively.- in the last deadlocked parliament Labor had only a sin- glc-figure majority. But. Churchill--always the mas- hole in case he faces I similar situation. He is almost certain to restore the university seats to bolster his voting power in the Commons. . These 14 seam-abolished by Labor-were occupied by is extra members elected in ii special poll of university graduates. For years safe Conservative seats. their re- iristaterpen-t would give Churchill a much. enlarged majority. In addition. many believe he could work out a deal with the once-powerful Liberals gaining some more voting strength. Pressing Problems Turmoil in the Middle East. I hazardous trade balance and home front shortages are among the pressing problems which will command Cl'iui'ohiii's attention. In a statement. to party offic- ials and election workers at Con- servative headouarters Churchill. witih tears in his eyes. declared: "There lies before us I diffi- cult time. A hard time. "I have no hesitation in saying that I have seen worse, and had to face worse. ”I do not doubt we shall come through because we shall use not. only party forces but we shall use the growing sense of the need to put Britain back in her place- I need which burns in the hearts of men far beyond these shares." There was deep gloom at Labor Party headquarters. but party chairman Morgan Phillip! took comfort in the fact that Attlee's followers polled more votes than Churchill's. .He stressed that all losing Labor seats went undei-by mljorities of 3.000 or less.

Georgetown Ladies Auxiliary To Canadian Legion Holds Meeting ..'The monthly meeting (if um Georgetown Ladies Auxiliary, Canadian Legion. 3.E.B.L.. was Md on Monday. October 22nd. in the Legion Hall. with 20 members present. x President. Mrs, J, w. Lav”, opened the meeting by calling for two minutes silence in mem- ory of departed oomradel. Eleven new members were in attendance and were made members of the auxiliary. Agreement was reached on the amount of membership dues to be paid.

Mount Stewart. on Monday evening. Oct. 22, a report was received from a delegated committee of their interview with the Public Utilities Commission about the increased rates of elec- tricity. The delegation consisted of two i'cpresent.atives each from Cardigan. Mount Stewart, Morell and St. Peter's Bay. The delegation had complained to the Commission thdt the in- crease seemed to be excessive and in some cases unjust. And if the rates were to be continued rural electrification will likely be re- duced, and certainly extension will be curtailed. This would seem to be opposite to the inten- tion of the Government which has done so much to improve roads and highways. and to en- courage the farming industry. ”It was found." the delegation reported. "that the Commission is not happy about the increased rates, but with expert advice of a recognized man in that kind of work, they did set the rates as low and as just as seemed pos- sible to them. "Electrification is not a social endeavour. but a business or cap- italistic venture. which means that assets and profits must be sufficient to attract lnvc.stioi's in order that. extension may be un- dertaken. In our economy this is understandable. but what is the use of extension if the cmt of using the power is excessive over and above the means of the people; so that the benefits are less than tihe burden imposed. The people who can afford all elec- trical equipment in tl.1cll' homes may not find the rates excessive. but the great majority of our people are not so blessed. They are the small users who are hard- est hit by the apparent. unneces- sary, excessive rabes in the pre- sent stage of development as far as electricity is concerned. Elec- tricity is not established in the rural areas, but in its infancy. It takes time for people with low incomes to change over so that a full. and possibly profitable use. may be made of electric power. "It is felt by the people of Mt. Stewart. that this matter is of grave concern to the future wel- fare and progress of the farmers of this Province. The people in the rural areas should register their opinions in this thing. and through Government and L'uOpel'- alion should strive to find some means of producing electricity and d'istributing it at a lower cost. Cooperation. in this as in other things. may be very suc- cessful, and may eliminate the al- ways exorbitant cost of outside capital. The will to do is the way to win.” It was decided by motion that the above be sent. to the Press. Electric Rates Add Rural Electrification Discussed In Mt. Stewart Resolution and the following resolution be sent to members of the Govern- ment. "Whereas Rural Electrification is becoming emeritial to work. and also an inducement for younger people to remain on the farms; "And whereas the larger centers are dependent upon prosperous rural conditions; V "And whereas the new schedule of rates imposes a burden on rural economy. which is becom- ing more and more dependent. upon electrical energy; "And whereas the change to electrical equipment is costly and must be gradual. the excessive cost of power in the early stages would tend to discourage the use of electricity on the farm. and tiierefore defeat the hope of ex- tension. which means a lessening of the benefits to the company. ”We the people of Mt. Stewart. solicit the good offices of. the Government to investigate and icy to arrange more equitable distribution of reasonable rates, so that the rural people will be encouraged to a greater use of electrical power."
