MACDONALD is
'FAVORITE' ON
ELECTION EVE
Prime Minister'S Party Is
Expected to Be Sustained
at Polls Tuesday.
BY r l..
United Press stan Correspondent

LONDON, Oct. 26.-The National
government Of Prime Minister RAM
say Macdonald continued the IA
vorite today to win a parliamentary
majority in the new house Of COM
mons to be elected Tuesday.
Political developments of the next
few weeks depend upon the size OF
the National governments majority
and particularly upon the makeup
Of the majority. Disposition of
liberal votes where the party has
no candidates is considered ex-
tremely important.
The Conservative party was con-
coded the chance Of winning an
absolute majority over all other
parties, although such a majority
would be one of the component
parts Of the National government
majority. If the government re-
turns fewer candidates than is an
ticipated, its component parts will
be obliged to stick together indefi-
nitely to insure a continuous work
ing majority.
Tariff Policy at Stake
An absolute Conservative majority
would near pressure for a full and
immediate tariff policy, probably
leading to detection from the ma
tional government of the free trade
liberals headed by Sir Herbert
Samuel.
With the unity Of the government
majority thus disturbed, most OBJ
servers doubted whether Macdonald
and his National Laborite followers
would remain long in the govern
ment.
If both free trade Liberals and
National Laborites broke away from
the National government, the Con-
%servatives and Liberals led by Sir
John Simon, whose policies are al
most identical, were believed capa-
BILE of forming a government which
could remain in Office for the full
statutory period Of five years.
Heavy Labor Vote Certain
Failure of the Conservatives and
simon Liberals to command an abb
solute working majority in the
house of commons would force them
to water down their tariff policy in
order to placate the free traders
and retain Macdonald at the head
OF the government.
The government made a deter
mined effort to arouse some of its
none-too-interested elements and
get them to the polls to offset the
Labor vote which is cast religiously
in full strength regardless of antici-
pated result of the election.
The biggest unknown factor in
the election was the 4,000,000 votes
cast for Liberal candidates in 355
constituencies in 1929 in which there
are no Liberal candidates in the
present campaign.
No Precedent for Defeat
Labor claimed that Liberals
were supporting their candidates in
industrial areas. 1t did not appear
worried about Liberal votes for
Conservatives from middle class,
residential and agricultural dis
tricts where Conservatives are al
ready safely entrenched.
Defeat of Macdonald in his per-
sonal fight for reelection to the
house of commons from the Sea-
ham division would not necessitate
his resignation.
Although there is no precedent
for the defeat of a prime minister
in a general election, experts in
constitutional law say Macdonald
could continue as temporary head
Of the government if it was ar
ranged to have him elected i'm
mediately from another con-
Stituency.
