The new STORTHING
Political Complexion Of Norway's
Legislative Body-Conserva-
tives Have a Majority.
Socialists Make Big Gains Promise
to Become Factor Of Great
Importance.

Norway's new storthing will have III
members-an increase of three. The con-
servatives will hold sixty seats, or clear
majority of three. The socialists have
shown a surprising growth in all parts of
the country, but have elected only one
member, and that one from Finmarken.
The liberals, or Venstre, who have been
in power for a generation, gained two
places in Finmarken, but have lost twen-
ty- three seats and are thereby reduced to
the minority party.
1t is generally admitted that the social
lists at the next election will be a factor
of great Importance. Their program is
much the same as elsewhere: government
control of profitable industries, universal
suffrage for both men and women, old
age pensions for all classes, adjustment
Of the military system, referendum in
all important question, adjustment of the
game laws, better public schools, shorter
working day enforced by law, and various
other reforms.
Christiania, which was the stronghold
of the venstre party, deserted it wholly
in the recent elections, giving the con-
servatives 12,73S votes to the socialists
SOL and to the liberals only 5,406.
The lone socialist in the storthing is
Jorgen Berge, an editor at Narvik. He
is a Roman Catholic and is the first per-
son of that faith to sit in the storthing
