Macmillan YieIdinq
Party's leadership
Announcement
Comes After
His Surgery

BLACKPOOL, England, Oct.
10 (AP)-Prime Minister Har-
old Macmillan announced to-
day he would not be able to
lead the Conservative Party at
the next general elections.
Mr.. Macmillan'S announce
ment was read to the annual
conference of the Conservative
Party by Lord Home, Foreign
Secretary.
The prime minister, who I'M
derwent a successful operation
for removal of his prostate
gland in London today, said:
ut is now clear that, what
ever might have been my pre-
vious feelings, it will not be
possible for me to carry the
physical burden Of leading the
party at the next general cleo
TONS"
The elections must be held
by october. 1854.
Queen Is Informed
Mr.. Macmillan's announce
ment was contained in a let
ter written yesterday. 1t said:
IF the operation, which I
am to undergo tomorrow,
proves successful it is clear that
I will need a considerable
period of convalescence.
II would not be able to face
all that is involved in a pro-
longed electoral campaign.
Nor could I hope to fulfill
the tasks of Prime Minister for
any extended period and I have
so informed the Queen.
In these circumstances I
hope that 1t would soon be
possible for the customary
processes Of consultation to be
carried on within the party
about its future leadership"
Not Unexpected
The conference solemnly
received the tidings Lord Home
brought.
1t was not, however, I'M
expected.
The only question in the
mind of most delegates was
when Mr. Macmillan would ac-
tually give up his post, once
it became known that his ILL
ness would involve two or three
months Of inactivity and con-
valescence.
Since Mr.. Macmillan was
hurried to the hospital Tuesday
night, party managers have
been in the process of trying
to agree on a successor but
they have not so far succeeded.
Deputy Prime Minister Rich
ard A. Butler, so, who is acting
during the Prime Minister'S ILL
ness, is regarded as a favorite
to succeed him.
Others mentioned are Lord
Hailsham, Sc, Science Minister,
and Reginald Maulding, as,
Chancellor of the Exchequer.

paid as high as $500 to one
trapper for his winters catch.

both green and cured hides: he

excess fat and stores them in
a ventilated building to dry
naturally for three to ten days.
He moves the cured furs by
truck To the N. c. Hide and

which is operated by his bro

brokers.

fur prices vary with demand.
Prices are highest, traffic hca-
West and marketed furs the

Ward and other dealers have
been discouraged by the er-
