Conservatives oust British
From AP andiReuter
LONDON-A one-vote margin in the
House of Commons toppled Prime
Minister James Callaghan's minority
Labor government last night, forcing
national elections that could bring
Britain and Europe their first woman
chief of government.
Callaghan's three years of shaky rule
ended when the House of Commons
voted 311-310 for an opposition no-
confidence motion. It was on Conser-
vative Party leader Margaret That-
cher's censure motion.
CALLAGHAN immediatelyannoun-
ced he would recommend to Queen
Elizabeth that Parliament be dissolved
and an election held. The date was ex-
pected to be May 3 or May 10.
The result followed one of the most
exciting votes in British history. Con-
servative members of Parliament
greeted it by throwing their arms in the
air and waving agenda papers. Labor
politicians reacted by singing "The Red
Flag."
Callaghan's government has been
beset by crippling strikes in recent
months. He is the first prime minister
ousted on a confidence vote since Ram-
say MacDonald, Britain's first Labor
premier, was turned out 55 years ago.
Thatcher, 53, who has been called "a
Tory glamor" girl by critics at home
and "the iron maiden" by newspapers
in the Soviet Union, opened the debate
yesterday by saying: "The government
has failed the nation, lost credibility
1 and it is time for it to go. Britain is now
a nation on the sidelines. Rarely in the
post-war period can our standing in the
world have been lower or our defenses
weaker."
Latest polls show Thatcher's Conser-
vatives far ahead of Labor.
THE VOTE INDICATED seven ab-
stentions from the 635 members of the
House of Commons. Those not voting
were not immediately identified.
Immediately after the vote,
Callaghan said, "We will take our case
to the country."~
Thatcher replied that her party
believes the elections should be called
"as a matter of urgency."
Thatcher charged that the Labor
government has "doubled prices,
doubled dole queues, doubled debt,
diminished our defenses and under-
mined public respect and confidence in
the law."
CALLAGHAN DEFENDED his
policies and sniped at the minority fac-
tions that have allied themselves with
the Conservatives, saying, "The
minority parties have walked into a
trap . . . It is the first time in recorded
history that turkeys have been known to
vote for an early Christmas."
Labor has been badly hurt by this
winter's string of truckers' and general
service strikes that crippled the shaky
economy and inconvenienced the
general public.
The no-confidence motion, howelver,
was triggered by Callaghan's failure to
win support for a referendum on
limited home rule in Scotland and the
subsequent defection of the Scottish
Nationalists in Parliament.
FOR THE PAST two years,
Callaghan's administration has relied
on pacts and deals with the minority
parties to keep its tenuous hold on of-
" fice; Conservatives branded him "a
wheeler-dealer" but his personal
popularity has stayed high in the
opinion polls.
Although Thatcher will begin the for-
thcoming campaign'as the favorite to
take over at 10 Downing Street, her
three years as Conservative leader
have not been easy.
Critics say she has a middle-class
school mistress manner which upsets
working class voters and she has
sometimes struggled to hold the atten-
tion of Parliament.
LABOR HAS BEEN in trouble since it
narrowly won an Oct. 10, 1974, general
election under Harald Wilson. The par-
ty started off with a slim majority of 319
seats, which has been whittled down to
306 by defeats in several special elec-
tions.
Following a series of resignations and
defections that sapped the party,
Wilson suddenly resigned the premier-
ship. Callaghan succeeded him as par-
ty leader and prime minister on April 5,
1976.
Labor limped along in power through
a string of deals with minority parties.

'Great Train' derailed
(Continued from Page 7)
libidinous richies our heroes are trying
to fleece).
As a master safecracker, Donald
Sutherland struggles as best he can
with what was intended as a comic part
- except that Crichton has failed to
provide him any funny lines or
situations: Some actors can conjure
laughs out of thin air, but Sutherland is
not the 'type; and it becomes a little
embarrassing to watch him try so
gallantly and so futilely.
The Great Train Robbery is an ar-'
tistic anomaly. The picture has nothing
to say, and takes an agonizingly long
time not saying it; there appears no
discernible reason to have filmed it
other than to make a lot of money
which, according to current box office
totals, is exactly what it's been doing. It
looks like a case of the old art-vs.-
business syndrome, and though
Crichton may emerge the economic
victor, the moviegoing public remains
the decided aesthetic loser.
