LABOUR’S OFFENSIVE
RESULT SHOULD BE KNOWN ON FRIDAY PROMPT COUNTING Times Cable. Reed. 11 a.m. LONDON, Monday. Parliamentary correspondents expect that an excellent idea should be obtainable by Friday morning of whether Labour’s offensive has succeeded, as despite the largely-increased electorate, the counting in over 200 of the constituencies in which Labour’s effort is expected ,to be the greatest will begin immediately the polling has ended, enabling a declaration of the result late at night or early on Friday. Eighteen Ministers, including nine members of the Cabinet, are involved in the results thus announced. Among them are Sir Austen Chamberlain, Mr. Neville Chamberlain, Mr, L. S. Amery, Sir Arthur Steel-Maitland and Sir William Joynson-Hicks, and also several Labour leaders. Mr. Baldwin’s, Mr. MacDonald’s, Mr. Lloyd George’s, Mr. Churchill’s and Mr. Snowden’s results will be announced on Friday afternoon, when practically the remainder will be published.
