McINTYRE HOOD Special to The Oshawa Times LONDON -- With the British general election now definitely fixed for October, political stu- dents and observers are looking back over the records for some indication as to what is to hap- pen when that election is held. On the surface of things as they are today, a Labor victory seems assured. The wing 'to Labor in the county borough and urban borough elections has 'been. such that if it were re- peated on the same scale in October, Labot would have a substantial majority and, would form the new government. Cer- tainly the Labor party has much more reason to be hopeful for victory that it had at this time in 1959, when the last general election was held on October 8. There is one important factor which has to be considered. In the local municipal elections, the percentage who voted aver- aged something below 40 per cent, although it was slightly higher in some areas. In the 1959 general election, 78.7 per in 1955 the voting percentage was 76.8 per cent. Thus the vote in a general election can be taken to be a ximately dou- ble that in the local elections, and the unknown factor is how that missing half of the poten- tial voters would cast their bal- lots. In the 1959 general election, the Conservatives polled of the total polled, With that number of votes they captured 365 seats. The Labor party se- cured 12,216,166 votes, or 43.8 per cent of the total, and captur- ed 258 seats. The Liberals had 1,640,761 votes or 5.9 per cent cent of the electorate voted, and 13,750,965 votes, or 49.4 per cent Back ctions and won six seats. There were 30,897 who voted for Commun- ist candidates of whom none were elected. Independent can- didates of various types secured 223,949 votes, or 0.8 per cent of the total, but only one inde- pendent was elected, and he had (previously held a Conservative seat in the Commons. Looking over the results of the last three elections, it is note- worthy that there has been lit- tle changeover in the strength of the two major parties, al- though Liberal strength has more than doubled. In the 1951 election, the Conservatives had 13,724,418 votes, equal to 47.98 per cent; Labor had 18,948,385 votes, or 48.77 per cent and the Liberals 730,551 votes of 2.65 per cent, In that election, the Con- seratives won with a majority of 28 seats. In 1955, the Conservative vote was 13,310,891 or 49.8 per cent; Labor, 12,405,254 or 46.3 per cent and the Liberals, 722,402 votes or 2.7 per cent. The re- sult of this election was a Con- servative majority of 55 seats. The noteworthy feature in the 1959 election was that while the percentage of the Conservative vote declined from 49.8 per cent to 49.4 per cent, and that of Labor from 46.3 per cent to 43.8 per cent, the Liberal share rose from 2.7 per cent to 5.9 per cent, The 722,402 votes in 1955 rose to 1,640,761 in 1959, There have been recent signs, however, that Liberal support is declining rapidly. In the bor- ough elections throughout Eng- land and Wales, the Liberals lost 9 seats tiey had previous- ly held and gained 34, a net loss of 59 seats. The Conservatives had 83 gains, most of them at the expense of the Liberals, si Se ia RS eS peg me a Saga cg eg Seog a TA RI I LS ale a Here is the U.S. Navy's Sea- lab One, an experimental un- derwater craft that will house four men under 200 feet of wa- ter in the Atlantic Ocean off Bermuda early this summer.
