CANDIDATES OF
LABOR AT.CRISIS
British Parties Combine for
Election.
Bg United Press

~ UnuCd Press
LONDON. Oct. 14.-Conservatives
and libreals have united to defeat
labor in the forthcoming general
election. Although no official admis-
sion of such an anti-Socialst com
pact could be obtained from spokes-
men for either of the older parties,
the purpose was evident today.
In many constituencies either the
conservative or the liberal candidate
has misunderstanding the way
for a straight fight against labor in
stead Of a triangular contest which
might end by giving the seat to the
government party.
The two older parties will do their
utmost to prevent reelection OF
Prime Minister Macdonald in his
home constituency. The cOnserva-
tives have withdrawn their candi-
date. leaving the opposition field
open TO the liberal nominee, whom
they will support financially, al
though unofficially.
The Tories also withdrew their
candidate at Paisley, leaving ex-
Premier H. II. Asquith a straight
fight against labor.
At Carnarvon. Lloyd George will
be opposed only by the labor candi-
date, Prof. A. E. Zimmerman.
In the west OF Scotland there has
been general agreement similar 10

Change Advised

When the local tornado was re-
ported in the Zeppelin's path, Navy
men at the New Jersey air station
suggested that by turning toward
Charleston. S. c., the storm might
be avoided.
The cruiser Detroit was called by
the ZR-3 during the night. but had
difficulty in getting an answer back.
Have message for you," the
cruiser signaled the dirigible.
Go ahead" answered the ZR-3.
The Detroit's operator didn't re.
ceive the signal, so Lakehurst re-
layed the message, saying:
THE ZR-3 is listening. Send your
message"
A little later the ZR-3 was heard
asking an unknown steamer regard
ing the weather conditions.

through ether, the speeding airship
kept on it's course, roaring steadily
on into the dawn Of its third day
