CANADA REJECTS
 ME|GHEN'S GOVT.
Leader and Five Colleagues Fail
 Of Reelection

Ottawa. Sept. IS R)-The belief prevailed in political circles today tha tthe conservative government of Arthur Meighen would resign as g consequence Of it's loss of yesterdays s parliamentary elections. In this case Governor General Lord Byng prob ably will send for former Premier Mackenzie King to again assume the reins Of government. In yester- days balloting, with seven consti- tuencies yet 10 be heard from, the liberals gained Is seats and the conservatives lost 2S.
 MT. Meighen was elevated to the premiership on the resignation of Mir. King last July, when the gov ernor- general refused a request of the King government to dissolve parliament when it was faced by a vote of censure before the house for it's responsibility for alleged dishon- esty in the customs service. The question of constitutionality of Lord Byngs action was made much of during the campaign by the liberals. They argued that no British govern ment had been refused dissolution in 100 years. MT. Meighen retorted that no prime minister had asked for dissolution with a motion of Ccn- sure hanging over his head.
 Questions which were of high i'm port during the campaign were Mir. Meighens proposal to revise the tariff on the protective principle and MT. Kings plea that no change in the tariff should be made that might prey on any legitimate industry.
 The conservatives in their speech es dwelt at length on the recent re- port of the parliamentary commit tee which investigated the King governments customs administra- tion. This report censurcd former Minister of Customs Jacques Bureau, asked for a reorganization of the department and the dismissal of cer- tain custam officials. A proposed vote of censure Of the government based on this report resulted in the King governmene giving lip power.
