SUICIDAL HANDLING OF

OIL DISPUTE BY PERSIAN GOVT

Flushing, Oct. 1.

Britain told the Security Council today that action "within the next day or two" was essential' to halt Iran's "suicidal” handling of the oil dis- pute.

Sir Gladwyn Jebb, the British representative, warned that the ex- tremist Iranian nationalists were "their own worst enemies" and if their assault on Anglo-Iranian oil properties was not stopped, Iran's economic "goose will be cooked."

Sir Gladwyn made a plea for quick action after Russia had tried in vain to block consideration of the crisis on the grounds that it was purely a domestic Iranian affair.

COMMENT OF THE DAY

T

With But A Single Thought

have

HE electors of Britain now

before them the manifestoes of the two major political parties seeking a October 25. Both popular vote on Conservatives and Socialists concen- trate on domestic issues, and even in this wide and varied field are at one on Never number of subjects. quite a before, in fact, have these two parties, originally politically poles apart, advocated election platforms so closely akin. The Liberals, somewhat wryly, but rightly, might well claim that both sides have borrowed the best of Liberalism in their new endeavours to woo the country. The two manifestoes provide an illuminating example of how the leading political parties in Britain have adjusted themselves to the needs of the times. Both eschew extremism and concentrate on the middle road. The Socialists refrain from proposing new measures which could become major controversial issues; likewise the Torles say they do not intend to

interfere

соп-

with past Socialist legislation, save the bill which nationalises the iron and steel industries. The similarity of the eléction programmes may well present the non-aflinted voter with a dilemma: may also doprive the Conservatives of some of the vital "floating vote," particularly the support of those Libera's "by persuasion" who have no Liboral candidates in their stituencies for whom to cast a vote. A comparison between the Sociallat and Tory platforms helps to illustrate the point. The Conservatives are basing their appeal to the country on nine points, five of which are roughly in line with fundamental proposals advanced by their principal adversaries. Both parties would (1) carry out the present Government's rearmament plan, (2) retain nationalisation of the coal industry: (1) discipline or eliminate monopolica, (4) maintain taxation on excess profits, and (5) preserve food subsidies. In direct opposition to the Socialista, the Tories would (a) scrap the iron and steel nationalisation and stop further proposals for State ownership and (b) reorganise the publicly-owned road and rail transport

system on a regional basis. The Tories make specific mention of two other issues which do not appear as main planks in the Socialists' platform. They are, firstly to protect the fishing industry from unrestricted foreign dumping, and secondly, to set a building target of 300,000 houses a year. Labour makes geven promises, including abolition of pay differences between inen and women in the public services (obviously a deliberate attempt entice a useful number of voters). limitation of dividends (indicated prior to the announcement of a general election), further raids on unearned incomes in the form of special taxation, the establishment of auction markets in provincial towns to try and bring down the cost of fruit and vegetables, and the creation of develop- ment councils wherever it is believed they could contribute to industrial efficiency.

-Most of the proposals advanced by both Socialists and Tories. are relatively minor domestic problems. The dominating question is how can the country go through with its vast, but Inescapable rearmament programme and at the same time keep inflation within limits that will not disastrously unbalance the nation's economic equilibrium, or utterly destroy the people's incentive to produce more with relatively fewer rewards. Neither party forthrightly commits itself to the solution of this connundrum. The Socialists are content to rely on their policies of the past six years to achieve the result. The Conservatives suggest a compromise financial and political policy. Neither party, however, can guarantee the final outcome and tend to shy away from the issue. Whatever the pros and cons of the election

appeals, it remains to bo noted that neither indulge in extravagant promises beyond the reach of fulfilment, and both go out of their way to take due regard of the sombre international and domestic situations. In many respects the manifestoea ére`models of restraint founded on realism.
