to Clitheroe Division Government in stale of 4political desperation?


'TOURING the marginal constituencies, Mr. George Brown, 1 deputy leader of the Labour Party, paid a whirlwind visit


to Clitheroe Division Labour Party’s dance at the Mercer Hall, Great Harwood, on Saturday. Delayed by fog, after speaking at a Salford conference, lie


found time to have a meal and chat with friends, Mrs. Ada Whittaker, a local magistrate, and her husband, al their home in Thom Street, before uoing to the microphone in the dance hall.


Fifteen minutes later lie was


on his way to Openshaw, near Manchester, to speak at a by- clection campaign meeting.


by County Councillor F. Ains­ worth. chairman of Great Har­ wood Trades and Labour Council, said the Government was clearly suffering from two crippling dis­ abilities—it was in a. state of extreme polit ical desperation and had an appalling ignorance of tint complexities of some of the gravest issues facing Britain. The Prime Minister, he said,

the busv A.59 trunk road between Lancashire and Yorkshire is running high. Though three earlier applica­

will tliis time be granted. As reported in the Advertiser


and Times recently, tfie Divi­ sional Education Executive Com­ mittee No. 5 are supporting the application. They have done so on tire three previous occasions,

issue. He knew it was his govern­

He knew it was an irrevocable decision from which there was no way back, and that all the mil­ lions of pounds spent since, and which they were talking of spending, could do no more than set up an illusion of indepen­ dence that deceived no one.
