Dread Possibility Of General Election
Revival Of Internal An Alarming Development
London, July 19.
Many Socialists are nervous of the thought that Sir Winston Chur- chill may spring a surprise general election on the country before they have patched up a series of bitter quarrels at present disrupting the babour Party."
Illnesses in the Government, with the Prime Minister himself topping the invalid list, seem to rule out the possibility of an autumn election.
But Sir Winston Churchill is one of the unpredictables of politics and ho might agree with a large body of his followers who are arguing that he should strike while Government prestige is high and the Socialists are weak.

Universal Low Press Rates For Cable, Radio Messages Suggested By Journalist
London, July 20.
A universal low press rate for cable and, radio, messages is sug- gested by Mr Francis Williams as a way out of the high costs that here and there severely hamper the flow of news.
In "Transmitting World News," a United Nations publication, out today, he contends that a uniform reduced rate might result in such kh therealed volume of presă traffic as,to bê economically feasible.
The Commonwealth rate is a penny a word. But charges made by different countries for similar communication services vary by over 300 per cent and it may cost twice as much to send nowa In one direction as in reverse,
