TELEGR+ MS. ST. CROLIX STATION. St: Johns, N. E., May 9th.—The lead of ‘ne Sguires Govermment party in the Nevivundland general elections was in- ee sed by one, when the Fogo district reported that a Government candidate was returned. Ihe narties now stand Govornment 18, opposition 13, to be heard from 5. It is predicted that these five s-a:s will go to swell the foll"wing of i Riehard Souires and will give him a w.ajority of 9 in a house of 36. iondon.

The Duke, who heads the Government commiitee which is in- quiring in.o the eountry’s air strength, was replyving in debate initiated by Lord Birkerhead, who based a demind for a one power standard in the air on the €normous sn)‘)eri»ri(ry of the French air {ovee and deciared tuat the nation could nst be content with such superiurity in any country, however fricndiy that coun- -I~y might be. ‘The Luke of Devonshire suid ne would be unable to give the details of the proposed increases until the committee of inquiry -had reported, but he assur.d the touse of Lords that e Loverameni would *endeavour to czrry out whatever recommenidations wbre made. London, May 9th, - Lord Curzon’s cov- Ko 1117 erine le'ter to the Governments note (o the Russian Soviet instructs the British aoent at Moscow, Mr. Hodgson, in the event of his receiving no reply from the Qoviet Government at the end of ten davs, that he is to return to England with his whoie mission. If a reply is re- ceived before the expiration of ten days and itis cleacly unsatisfactory, the ler- ter reads, “‘you and your stats should leave Moscow without further delay.”’ It is expected that not (e least import- ant result of ihe note to Moscow will be its reac ion on labour here. Even be- fore the publication of the text, which snowed n muzh more vigorous phrasing than had been anticipated, the Independ- ent Labour party, the Communists and spokaesmen of the Pariiameniary Labour narty let it be known that they would regard as deplorable a canceilation ot trade relations with Russia, which step they believed the impending note tore- shadowed. Now there 1s a gererai be- lief that a break in relations between London and Moscow is imminent, al- though it is pointed out that this Gov- ernment nnly demands that Russia aban- don her present actions. The Parliamen- tary Labour party earnestly hopes that there wiil be no break with Russsia and is prepared to use all the means in its pewes, as the Official opposition, to pre- vent such an oecunrence, London, May 10th.—H.
