CAPITAL LEVY CRY
HURT LABOR'S CHANCES
Asquithions Failed to Make
Expected Gains.

LONDON, Nov. 16 (Assoclated Press).
While the results OF yesterdays vot-
ing cannot properly be described as
landslide. as the Conservatives at the
time of the dissolution OF Parliament
numbered about $50. IT amounts. con-
sidering the peculiar circumstances of
SAe time and the high hopes held by
the Labor and Liberal parties of the
return of the country TO progressive
views. almost TO the same thing. and
il may be supposed that the Conserva-
tives themselves hardly expected such
favorable results.
Inc Asquith Liberals lately improved
their position, rising from thirty-four
in the old Parliament 10 sixty-two in
the new, but they did not do as we'll as
they expected. 1t is generally believed
also that Labor would have done far
better but for the tactical mistake in its
advocacy of capital levy.
While The strength of Conservatism IN
The country is a matter OF surprise, per-
laps the keynote of the elections Is
ihe decline OF Liberalism and the
growth OF the Labor party. This seems
TO show that henceforth the struggle
viii be between the Conservatives on
the one hand and the Labor party on
the other.
The position now IS that Labor Is the
iecOHu strongest party IN tue ftouhc'
and in what looks now as the improb-
able event of the present Government
suffering defeat in Parliament Il would
be TO tho Labor party that the King
would naturally turn for new Premier.
Anc Ter striking feature OF the cleo
tions is that the women voters have
taken quite an Unexpectedly strong
interest in the struggle. their partlclpa-
tion probably accounting more than any
thing else for the exceedingly heavy
polling.

LONDON. NOV. 16 ASSOCIATED Prcss)
The long I'awn out fight between
Lloyd George and sir George Younger
has for tho time ended with victory for
the chairman OF the Unlonst party.
Younger and his adherents staked their
political fortunes at the famous Carl
ton Club meeting which smashed the
Coalition on the conviction that the
country was ripe for n return,to straight
party politics and in the firm belief
that tho nation would support their con-
victlon by sending the Conservatives Ia
the House of Commons with good
WORKING majority.
Major Lloyd George tho former Pre-
mier's son. had an enormous majority
in Pembroke. his poll being 21,569 to

Paris. Nov. 49,
Although Great Britain is anxious 10
keep hold of the Mosul oil fields attained
by an accord with the French at San
Reno. IL is now evident that the Turks
intend to bring up the question OF Tur-
keys Eastern frontier ar the Lausanne
conference and thereby enable American
interests to obtain more extensive rights
than has hitherto been possible.
Isrnet Pasha. the Nationalist dele
gate, when asked whether failure TO
mention Turkeys Eastern frontiers in
the Mudania armistice meant that the
boundaries as specified in the Sevres
treaty remained valid. said that 1t was a
matter which certainly would be taken
up at Lausanne.
This confirms recent reports from
Constantinople that the Angora Gov
ernment still considers Mosul a part of
Turkish territory and that all efforts to
mandatze the oil fields are invalid, the
Angora Government alone considering
itself entitled TO apportion oil conces-
sions within its frontiers.
Ismet Pasha indicated that n new
regime must be substituted for the
capitulations, one which would make
foreigners pay taxes. although they
would be assured of the fullest liberty

Pittsburgh, Pa, Jan. 10.-Plant
operations have commenced to ex-
pand again in this district after the
contraction of production around
the first of the year Steel produc-
ton is on larger scale in both the
Monongahela and Allegheny val
leys- The Pittsburgh Steel COM
nany has resumed operations at
Monessen and the Allegheny Steel
company has increased production
at its Tarentum plants.
A canvass Of the business firms
here today showed an almost unan-
imous opinion that trade will grad
ually expand during the present
year. Retail lumber dealers report
almost unprecedented activity in
the Pittsburgh district One build
er is starting work on IS dwellings.
The November and December oil
production in Pennsylvania was
considerably in excess of consump-
ton and the latest cut in PennsyI-
vania crude oil did not come as a
surprise to oil men, although it is
expected to curtail field work to a
certain extent. Coal and coke mar
kets continue very quiet, but the
placing OF orders for steel and cars
suggesting a better demand for
steel has helped to produce a bet
ter sentiment in coke and coal.
