At Stake In New
British Election
LONDON UP Winston
Churchill and his conservative
"shadow cabinet" began shaping
election strategy today as Social
ists and their foes squared off
auickly for a mighty election bat
e to control British government
policy.
The former wartime leader
greeted Labor Prime Minister Cle
ment Attlee's announcement that
the country will vote Oct. 25 just
35 days from now with the cry
that Britons can now place in
power a cabinet effective at
home and abroad and "not misled
by class warfare or doctrinal fal
lacies." His "shadow cabinet" is
made up of the younger tories who
advise him and help fight his bat
tles in parliament.
Attlee's announcement to the
country said the Labor party
wanted a decisive vote of confi
dence from the people after 18
months of government with only a
very small majority in the House
of Commons.
Labor's margin on Important
votes has been only from six to
10 in the 625-seat house since the
February 1950 elections. The La
bor party took power in 1945.
Attlee appeared to leave no
doubt he wanted popular endorse
ment of his policies not only over
the attacks from the Conservatives
but also over a left wing section
of the Labor party that opposes so
much spending for rearmament.
Churchill will be 77 on Nov. 30
and is suffering from a grow
ing deafness.
Recent public opinion Dolls in
the country indicate that the coun
try's 34,000,000 voters have swung
heavily toward the Conservatives.
One poll gave the tories 51V4 per
cent to 38V& percent for Labor.

Quick-Thinking
Grocery Clerk
Traps Fugitive
YAKIMA, Wash. UP) -Law
enforcement agencies called off a
valley-wide manhunt Wednesday
after their quarry was trapped by
a quick-thinking grocery clerk.
Sheriff's officers gave Robert
W. Reid, 32, a clerk at De Voe's
market here, full credit for the
capture of Marcus Hilstodt, iden
tified by the FBI as an escapee
from the penitentiary at Bismarck,
N. D.
Deputy sheriff Roger Menden-
hall, one of the officers alerted
by Reid, arrested Hilstodt without
a struggle as he sat in Reid's
car at a service station.
Officers said the fugitive was
the man who had led a state pa
trol officer on an 80-mile-an-hour
movie thriller chase through twist
ing Ellensburg canyon earlier in
the day. The chase touched off a
daylong manhunt which spread
throughout Yakima valley.
Reid told officers he spotted the
man standing alongside the high
way as he drove home from work
last night. Reid said he went on
home, scribbled "I think I have
the fugitive in my car" and his
license number on a piece of pa
per, and started driving back to
ward Yakima.
The clerk said he saw the man
again and offered him a ride.
Approaching town, Reid told his
passenger he had to pay a bill
and stopped the car at a trailer
camp store. He left the note after
telling the woman clerk he would
be parked at a North First street
service station.
Police, state patrolmen and sher
iff's officers closed in a few min
utes later and Mendenhall made
the arrest
