But party leaders warned against overconfidence. Results from 399 boroughs that had finished counting Friday gave Hie Conservatives a net gain of 310 seats. The Laborites dropped 341 seats to the Tories, Liberals and independents. HARD WORK AHEAD The Labor party lost control of councils in a number of big cities, including Llanidloes, Bolton, Northampton, M or ley, ' York, Reading, Ipswich, Dudley and Walsall. Lord Woolton, Conservative par ty chairman, hailed the results as encouraging but warned: "It will need sustained hard work during the next fortnight to secure a worthy victory at the general election." Thursday's elections took place In 401 boroughs. There were more than 5,710 Conservative, Laborite, Liberal, independent and Commu nist candidates in the field. The elections were fought mostly on local issues. CHARGE INTERFERENCE Campaigning for the May 26 contest began warming up as a Labor party leader accused the United States of interfering. The Laborites also donied Conserva tive claims that a Socialist vic tory would put Britain back on rationing. Woodrow Wyatt, parliamentary undersecretary of state in the last Labor government, told a politi cal rally in Sleaford President Ei senhower agreed to top-level Big Three talks with Russia only to help the Tories win on May 26. "President Eisenhower has no faith in top-level talks," Wyatt declared. "All he is trying to do is to prevent the Labor party from winning the election." if a " tt if',:.; v, a, . v 4 .3 T 1 t " -..

Neuberger (D- ore) trlday he would be " very happy to meet you in public de bate on the merits, or demerits, of any timely subject." But he indicated he feels the question of partnership construc tion of John Day Dam, the merits of which Neuberger challenged him to debate, may be a moot is sue by fall. Neuberger opposes Coon's bill under which local interests would pay for power features of the Columbia River dam and receive 50-year power contracts in re turn. Ho has challenged Coon to a scries of debates In Oregon this fall as to whether the proposal Is in tho public interest. Neuber ger said Thursday he had accept ed an Invitation from the Pendle ton Chamber of Commerce to de bate Coon there. In his formal reply Friday, Coon said: "Senator, T want you to know that I shall be very happy to meet you In public debate on the merits, or demerits, of any time ly subject. However, as seems to be your habit, you have presump tuously jumped to the conclu sion that H.R. 5789 (the partner ship bill) will not have become low by September. "For your Information I do not introduce bills for publicity, or other facetious purposes. I spon sor constructive legislation and work tirelessly for its passage. At no time have I deviated from this practice, and you may be sure that I will not in the pres ent instance."

Judicial Council SALEM Ml A bill creating a state judicial council was signed into law Thursday by Gov. Paul Patterson. The council, which will consist of all judges in the state, will study court procedures and mako recommendations to the governor. in mind, but Johnson said Fri day: "It looks like the President had something there. Leading Repub lican senators are making the point that a Big Four meeting at the summit would lead to a sen out to communism." There "may be a cold war" of polities, Johnson told newsmen, but the antagonists are Eisen hower and soipe Republican sen ators who apparently do not trust him to negotiate with the Com munists. Johnson made it clear he re ferred to recent speeches by GOP Senators Knowland of Cali fornia, the minority leader, Bridges of New Hampshire, chair man of the Senate GOP Policy Committee, and McCarthy of Wisconsin. ALL 3 SKEPTICAL All three have voiced skepti cism about Eisenhowers ex pressed willingness to attend a Big Four conference with the heads of state of British, France and Russia. They also have ques tioned the wisdom of trying to negotiate with Red China, as Eisenhower has said this coun try is willing to do. "I think an international con ference could lead to a sellout if our country is represented by stu pid and unpatriotic men," John son said. "But I have confidence in the President."
