In London, the sun shone brilliantly 1n an almost cloudless sky. Some people waited in the grey, clammy dawn 1o cast their ballots as soon as the polls opened. Work men stopped on their way to fac tories, mingling with others com ing home from all-night shifts. Both Conservatives and Social ists sent fleets of automobiles through the streets to carry voters who were short of time or unable to find other transportation. Election officials in many dis tricts throughout London and other large cities, including Cardiff, Leeds and Bristol, reported very heavy voting during the morning. Prime Minister Attlee and his family were among the first dozen people to vote at their West minster polling place. The mild mannered Labor Party chief cast his ballot shortly after 8 o’clock. Asked about his election prospects, he replied, “I never prophesy.” With Attlee were his wife, his two daughters and one of his two sons.. Election experts of both parties said the total vote might exceed even the record set last year when 28,769,477 (85 per cent) of the nearly 35,000,000 registered voters cast ballots. They based this forecast on the fact that both parties have con ducted intensive drives to get out the vote and on the belief that the | fundamenz] Issues of the election' have become so fiercely contro-! versial that few ballot would go unused today. ® ] From Buckingham Palace came | word that King George VI, still re cuperating from a major lung op eration, will remain awake until} midnight tonight to get election | results. His doctors have sanc-! tioned the late hour for this oc- | casion. | Election-recording boards were set up in Piccadilly Circus and in other gathering points by London newspapers. . i As the polls opened, both major p'artiesﬁsue‘ d eenfident statermentk predicting victory. Public opiniof’ surveys ended with the Conserva tives still on top in graphs and charts—but with the lead over La bor greatly narrowed in the final hours. Both parties were contending hotly for the Liberal vote. The Liberais—Britain’s third force— number some 2,000,000 voters, but have put up candidates in only a few districts. Final messages from both Churchill and Prime Minister Att lee tersely rephrased the central issues. These were: 1. Whether to continue the vast socialist experiment in state con trol over business and industry or whether to restore the Conserva tives and return as far as possible to a system devoted to private en terprise. 9. Whether to bring back Churchill, on whom the Socialists have attempted to pin the label “warmonger” and who, they warn, would pursue a line of policy that could lead to war. Inherent in the first are the pressing questions of prices, wages, housing, subsidies, and taxes. In the area of foreign policy, fo cal points of disagreement are re lations with the United States, methods of conduct in the cold war with Russia and the struggles in Iran and Egypt. ] BATTLE CASUALTIES WASHINGTON, Oct. 25 — (AP) —The defense department today identified 427 more battle cas ualties in Korea.

Britain, already maintainini a tight military and naval control of the Suez Canal Zone, reiterated her determination also not to be forced out of the vast cotton growing Sudan to the south. In the Sudan’s capital, Khar toum, British civil secretary Sir James Robertson told the Legisla tive Assembly today Egypt's can cellation of the 1899 condominium agreement was invalid. The agreement set up joint British- Egyptian control of the Sudan, which Egypt now claims as hers alone. Egypt has said she would give the Sudan “elf-rule under the Egyptian crown, with Ex}?t re taining control of defense finance and foreign affairs. From the Bri tish side, Robertson today prom ised the Sudanese “a full self governing constitution” by the end of next year. Robertson indicated, however, that Britain also plans restrictions, at least at first, on Sudanese in dependence. The constitution, he told the assembly, would satisfy the “immediate aspirations” of the Sudanese, The- Egyptians talked just as determinedly. Salah El Din in a fiery speech last night said Egypt must prepare for a “long struggle” against the British she is seeking to oust from the Suez Canal Zone and the Sudan. He spoke before the National Pact Committee,~organized. after Egypt broke off her 1936 treaty with Britain 11 days ago. The foreign minister said “We must use the arms the British al ways have used against us,” add ing, “our fight will require all our energies and perhaps blood. We are not against a weak enemy, but a strong one.” Underlining the foreign minis ter’s words, Egyptian Royal Air Force jet planes were seen flying low over Cairo today. It was not immediately apparent what their mission was. * In the Canal Zone British war ships foiled an attempt by Egyp tian authorities to deny British merchant ships transit through the waterway. The Egyptians refused them clearance. The British Navy, backed up by its ships at either end of the canal entrance, au thorized the merchantmen to go through. Rail and road traffic also re mained under tight British mili tary control.

N. Proposal BY ROBERT B. TUCKM% MUNSAN, Korea, Det. 25. — (AP) — The United Na tions today proposed a give and-take compromise to set up a buffer zone across the wartorn Korean peninsula. The U. N. proposal ealled for the Allies to yield about 200 square miles of North Korea in the east, and for the Reds to give up a similar area in the west. The buffer zone would be about 2% miles wide and follow gen erally present battle lines. The proposal was introduced in a subcommittee meeting in Pan munjom shortly after cease-fire negotiations were resumed by the main Red and Allied teams, end ing a 64-day breakdown im the parleys. There was no immediate indica~ tion of Communist reaction. The Reds previously demanded a buf fer zone along Parallel 38, old poli tical boundary between North and South Korea. Maj. Gen. Henry I. Hodes, sub committeeman who presented the Allied proposal, cautioned the Reds to aceept it, or face a less favorable offer later. He peinted out that while talks were in recess, the Allies had advanced thelr line many miles northward. Committees Adjourn After the proposal, accompanied by detailed maps, was made 10 the Communists, the subcommittees adjourned until 11 a. m. Friday (9 p. m., EST, Thursday). Brig. Gen. William P. Nuckols, U. N. Command spokesman, said the Communists would be obliged to give up Kaesong, former site of cease-fire talks. It is just helow parallel 38 in Western Korea, The proposed buffer zone would run from the.mouth of the Yesong river in West Korea to 11% mmniles southeast of Kosong on the Ko rean east coast. The Allies are about 50 miles north of parallel 38 in that area, The linehwould run about four miles south of Pyongg apex of the old iron trianglﬁ;ﬁﬂup area of the Communists. It weuld bend south to about 6% miles south of Kumsong, the blasted Red headquarters and supply wen ter on the central front, now wir tually in Allied hands. From that point it would twist northeastward and through a m about 15 miles north of the Y chon Reservoir on the east eentral front and then generally morth east to the east coast. Allied forces would keep hard won, blood - soaked Heartbreak Ridge on the east central fromt, Very Amicable Nuckols sald the main delega tions session was “very amicakhie.” After half an hour Gen. Nam 11, chief Red envoy, proposed that the cease-fire problem be handed back to the subcommittees, The Allies agreed. The subcommiitees were dead locked on the issue when the Reds called off the talks at Kaesong Aug. 23. Nuckols said: “We wasted wery little time on administrative mat ters, The desire of the United Nations delegation was to get snto substantial matters and not go in to past history. “We wanted to get into agenda item number two (the huffer zone) as quickly as possible and that is exactly what we are do ing.” Thursday night was the dfinst time since negotiations wepened July 10 that the United Nations command has publicly announced exactly where it wanted the cease fire line.
