(Received October 7, at 11 a.m.) The newspapers express the opinion that as the result of yesterday’s overwhelming; vote in the Labour Party conference, condemning a united front with the Communists, the advocates of this proposal in the Labour ranks, the chief of whom has been Sir Stafford Cripps, will abandon their campaign. The Press reports suggest connection between this and the re-election of Sir Stafford Cripps and Professor Laski to the national executive among the representatives of constituency Labour parties, at the head of whom is Mr Herbert Morrison, who received 348,000 votes. A new executive member in this' section is Mr Philip Noel Baker. Mr Clynes again headed the trade union section of the executive with 2,057,000 votes.
