STOCK EXCHANGE
BETS ON THE LIBERALS

UNITED PRESS LEASED WIRE
London, Dec. 3.-Although the
Stock Exchange odds are to !
that the LibS--z-Irish-Labor alliance
will elect a majority of the House
of Commons, the belief is growing
today that the House of Lords will
weather the election storm and re-
tain its powers. 1t is predicted in
some quarters that the liberal ma
jority in the commons will be slen-
der.
Many assert that the Liberals
will not have as many seats as the
Conservatives, and that the Liberals
thereby will be forced to depend on
their allies for victory, which will
be by narrow margin, with the re-
suit that King George will not exc
cute the Liberals anti-Lords policy.
They declare that the king rightfully
could say that the Liberal victory
was not decisive enough to warrant
his creating a number of Liberal
peers to give the Liberals control of
the upper house.
