Britain's Socialist Regime
Faces Fight For Re-Election
By HEWITT MACKENZIE
AP Foreign Affairs Annkit
England'i experiment with so
cialist government it headed for
a itormy showdown In the next
general election, which Will de
termine whether the country
wishes to continue the regime or
return to the old system of free
enterprise on which the great
ness of the empire waa built.
The Labor (Socialist) govern
ment which came Into power in
July of '45 would have a normal
life of five' years-thai is until
next summer. However. Eng
land'! economic crisis has reach
ed such a grave pa that it's
anybody's guess whether it will
get better or worse. This con
fronts the socialist leaders with
the problem of whether to hang
on until the end of their term
In hope of improvement-or to
force an early election on the
chance that things are better
now than they will be later.
Anybody's Guess
As things stand, that decision

must hinge largely o n crystal
gazing. Much will depend.' it
slrikes me, on the outcome of
the British-Canadian American
conference opening In Washing
ton to seek a solution of John
Bull's predicament. If relief can
be devised, the socialist political
chances might be improved.
England's socialist leaders are
under no delusions about the po
litical dangers ahead. Both Sir
William Lawther, president of
the great British Trades Union
congress, and James Griffiths,
chairman of the Labor party,
warned the annual conference of
the T. V. C. Monday that Social
ism is facing a tough fight.
This blunt warning Is aimed at
wildcat strikes which have been
complicating the economic cri
sis. Both leaders declared labor
might lose the next general el
ection if It didn't stay on the
job. Sir William asserted t h a t
some work stoppages have been
Instigated by Communists.
Socialists Worried
So Britain's socialist leaders
are worried- -and for good rea
son. Things haven't worked out
as they anticipated when they
took office. Economic difficulties
which they inherited as the re
sult of the war, have gone from
bad to worse.
Inevitably there has arisen the
searching question of whether
the situation has worsened be
cause of socialist policies or whe
ther the same misfortune would
have dogged the Conservatives
if they had been continued i n
power. That's a question which
the voters most certainly will
want answered before they go to
the polls.
The burden of proof will rest
with the Socialists, and it won't
he easy to produce the evidence.
They can claim with perfect
right that they inherited serious
economic difficulties. Few will

Longshoremen
Temporarily
Barred By Court
SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 8.
LVy The CIO Longshore union
was temporarily barred by court
order today from interfering with
ships ready to load or sail for
Hawaii, where Longshoremen
have been on strike since May
1
But the stevedores still refused
to work the Matson company's
Hawaiian refiner here, or the
Hawaiian logger at Wilmington,
Calif.
Federal Judge George B. Har
ris temporarily restrained the
union from picketing the ships
and set hearings for 2 p.m. to
day (PSTI on whether his order
shall be .made permanent.
The Hawaiian local of the
longshoremen sent two members
here several weeks ago to picket
the refiner, and one man to pick
et the logger. Longshoremen then
refused to load the ships.
Despite withdrawal of the pick
ets, the Matson company said no
longshoremen reported for work
on the refiner last night. The
company asked for about 85 long
shoremen to report at 7 p.m.
About 40 showed up near the
pier but left again, the company
said, after two union agents
showed up.
