British Go to Polls

Today

LONDON (iP)-British voters
elect a new 630-seat House of
Commons today, deciding whether
to keep Prime Minister Sir Alec
Douglas-Home's Conservatives at
the helm or to replace them with
the Labor Party, led by Harold
Wilson.
The. race appeared so close that

not as much as there should have
been. He has accused the Con-
servatives of allowing the country
to stagnate and campaigned on
the slogan: "Let's go with Labor!"
Conservatives want ot keep a

bookies-legal in Britain-still
were giving odds that Labor would
win.
Prime Minister Douglas-Home
and Wilson made last-minute.
pleas for support last night and
trumpeted conflicting claims of
victory. Their tone and the wor-
ried expressions of their aides in-
f dicated, however, that they were
none to sure.
Prime Ministry
Wilson, 48, one-time Oxford
University faculty member, and
Douglas-Home, 61, a former
nobleman, are rivals for the Prime
Ministership. The job goes to the
man whose party wins control of
the House of Commons.
Either Wilson or Douglas-Home
will be the person the winner of
the United States presidential
election Nov. 3 will have to deal
with on an intimate basis in West-
ern alliance matters.
A puzzling campaign, Britain's
most disorderly this century, pro-
duced contradictory clues as to
the outcome of voting.
28 of 36
About 28 million men and wom-
en, out of an eligible 36 million
voters, will chose the persons they
want to respresent them in Par-
liament for the next five years.
The polls will remain open from
7 a.m. to 9 p.m.
Balloting is on a district basis.
The voter designates the man he
wants to represent him in Parlia-
ment. Wilson and Douglas-Home
get votes only in thier own dis-
tricts.
The field contains .1,700 candi-
dates - Conservatives, Laborites
and Liberals with i scattering of
splinter group nominees.
Opinion Polls
Public opinion polls, fluctuations
in the stock exchange plus endless
rumors have indicated the tide
was running first toward the La-
bor party and then toward the
Conservatives.
Throughout the campaign how-
ever, bookmakers quoted odds
making the Labor Party the f a-
vorite. A person must put up 11
pounds to win 4 if he picks a
Labor Party victory. For every
pound put on the Conservatives a
bettor stands to win two.
The campaign touched on for-
eign affairs and defense matters
but basically was fought on a
bread and butter issue.
Douglas-Home has said 13 years
of unbroken Conservative rule has
given Britons full employment and
the highest standard of living they
ever have known.
Some Growth
Wilson has conceded there has
been some economic growth but

Labor wants to give up the in-
dependent British deterrent. It
proposes all nuclear weapons be
put under joint Allied control and
wants to strengthen conventional
forces for NATO defense.
Taxation
In taxation, Conservatives pro-
pose to continue to reform the tax
system both for companies and in-
dividuals.
Labor wants a major overhaul of
the whole tax system with higher
unearned incomes carrying a
greater share of the tax.
Conservatives also want to
maintain an annual growth rate
of four per cent, with economic
planning by a partnership of gov-
ernment, management and unions.
They aim to double the 1954
standard of living by 1979 and
want to complete the denational-
ization of the steel industry.
Over Four Per CentF
In this area Labor proposes to
reach at least a four per cent
growth rate and asks creation ofI
a Ministry of Economic Affairs
to draw up a national plan to in-
crease investments, expand ex-
ports and reduce nonessential im-
ports.
It also asks an incomes policy
covering profits, dividends and
rents as well as wages, to be
achieved through cooperation with
unions. Labor would nationalize
steel completely, and also have
public ownership of water supply
and road transport.
Also proposed: publicly owned

end of monopolies, controling mer-

In education, the Conservatives
propose suitable education or
training for every boy or girl up
to 18, promising to raise the
school-leaving age from 15 to 16.
They advocate a priority drive for
more teachers and new schools.
Laborites would abolish the 11-
plus qualifying examination fori
children to enter grammer school.S
They would make secondary edu-
cation comprehensive; raising the
school-leaving age to 16 and re-
ducing the size of classes to 30.

They want to integrate private
schools into the state system and
to expand higher education.
On the technology issue, Con-
servatives propose new research
agencies and government help for
new industrial techniques. They
would modernize methods, markets
and machines.
Labor calls for a national plan
to mobilize technology. It wants
a major change in attitude to-
ward science and new ways of
putting modern techniques into in-
dustry. Laborites propose a min-
istry of technology and revision
of training facilities.
