»GOVERNMENT OF BRITAIN STARTS PLANS 11 (CONTINUED FORM PAGE ONE) ■ him. , Insistence of the pure conservi ative elements ou the fullest ■ measure of protection when the I cabinet discusses the problem of j ■ the adverse trade i olance was I expected to briirg the question of I a pure conservative government [ to an immediate climax. The triendship between Stanley' ■I Baldwin and MacDonald, and. Baldwin's attitude that the conserva-j I tiv® were elected as national party candidates and not conservative candidates, was expected to' keep MacDonald at the head of I the government indefinitely. Able to pass easily any legisla I tion necessary to lead Britain out ;of its financial and industrial morass, the government was expected to push the following i measures as soon as i<arliamentary procedure would permit: I—Stabilization of the pound sterling at the time and point where it was believed to have reached its natural level, estimat-! I ed at around $4. 2. Attempt international agreements to relieve the burdens of ' war debts and reparations. 3. —Summon an imperial conference. probably at Ottawa, as the first move toward an empire cusI toms union. 4. Apply- heavy duties to manufactured goods which are sold cheaper in Britain than they can 1 be manufactured here; also duties : on luxuries. 8 Practical measures to reduce unemployment, already decreasing due to the stimulation of industry after suspension of the gold ■; standard. 6 —Conversion of the war loan. | T- —An eventful "scientific tar-; j iff' meanwhile giving high tariff, nations such as the United States the opportunity to modify their tariffs against British goods an-1; i forestall the use of Britain's new i weapon, Heavy duties against manufac-i tured goods would affect the United States. Germany, Russia. Belgium. 9 rance and Scandinavia, while south American countries! Would escape lightly because they send raw materials chiefly to' Britain. “ It was believed the govern-1 ment s attitude toward Soviet Russia would be stiffened, perhaps by restricting the system i.fj I export credits, unless the soviets 1 agree to trade concessions. i Little change was exacted in I the attitude toward lhe league of nations and disarmament, although ! the preponderance of conserva-1

! lives in the government may , : make the government policy slight-, i ly more nationalistic. It was knowrf that Mahatma I : Gandhi and other Indian leaders' feared a stronger government hand at the Indian round table conference, decreasing the chances ! of settlement. Neut-’-al foreign economic and finanf ial experts questional by 1 the United Press agreed that ’ every nation concerned in world finance and trade would be affectj ed tv.- the swing of traditionally j I conservative Britain hack to the I ' right.” It was emphasized that , the present crisis was largely the I ■ result of a general loss of confidence and that the instability of . sterling had dislocated the world's banking machinery, of which Lon- j | don is the center. The new house of commons . w ill present the unusual aspect of I government sisnporters overflowing the opposition betahes. There the "gallant 59” probably will be' led by George Dansbury, former laborite first commissioner of works, until Arthur Henderson, William Graham, or J. D. Clyr.es is returned to parliament by the| i esignation of a safe tabor seat . and the consequent bye-election. Unless Henderson is returned to the house of commons by February, u was considered scarcely I possible that he would be atlle to act as president of the wrold dis-1 armament conference at Geneva. He was elected to that post as I foreign secretary of the labor government. I The labor return to parliament' Vcws only 18 per cent of that of 192 J). 1* was believed That tabor Would . turn to less radical policies in i I future elections in an effort to «ntiee the more conservative ele-1 I ments who deserted the party. Tlie position of David Lloyd' ' George in national affairs after' the repudiation of his free trade 1 principles was the subject of much political speculation. It was suggested Lloyd George might re-' ' capture the leadership of the Sir! Herbert Samuel liberals and the! J national laboritcs. with perhaps a few dissenting conservatives and 1 old line laborites, and form a new : middle party. , The conservatives, liberals, and | national laborites who appealed to | the country under leadership of j MacDonald held 551 seats of a' . total of 615 in the new house of, commons against 59 for the oppo-1 | sition. The government was ex-' j pected to win the five unreported i seats, giving it an absolute majority of 497 over the laborites. The 1 I coneervatives then will hold an absolute majority of a%mt 330 | seats.
