STANDINGS) Mandate Gives Britain New World Status - PM By CARL MOLLINS LONDON (CP)--Prime Min- ister Wilson, returning in tri- umph to 10 Downing Street after his Labor party's crushing de- feat of the Conservatives in Britain's general election Thurs- day, pledged new initiatives for disarmament and an end to the Viet Nam war. "This decisive mandate will give Britain greater authority in the world and above all in the search for international disarm- ament and international peace," Wilson said from the steps of his official London residence. With results tallied from 623 of the 630 constituencies, the count was: Labor 362, Conserv- atives 250, Liberals 9, Irish Re- publican 1, Speaker 1. Although today's results from outlying areas showed increased strength for the Conservatives, as expected, Wilson's Labor 0/party was certain of anover- all majority of close to 11 seats, | experts said.

The Queen and her family have no votes. A. J. Irvine was in hospital in the Liverpool area «when his re-election as Labor mem- ber for Liverpools Edgehill riding was announced. He suf- fered a recurrence of heart trouble Thursday and was whisked to hospital. His con- dition is not believed serious. At Edinburgh, unsuccessful Conservative candidate I. C.

CONCEDES DEFEAT Conservative Opposition Leader Edward Heath, after keeping silent all night, finally conceded defeat just before La- bor captured its 316th seat. In a formal statement, he said: "The British people have given their verdict. it now is clear the Labor party will form the next government." The big Labor win, pith its promise of stable government, gave a boost to the pound, which opened strongly against the dollar in the money market after recent weakness. Reginald Maudling, a promin- ent Conservative party figure, said he thinks the electorate de- budget will be extremely severe, He predicted more price in- creases to match those an- nounced for steel, aluminum and newsprint during the last week, As the morning's returns came in, the oldest member of the outgoing House, Emanuel Shinwell, 81, chairman of La- bor's parliamentary caucus, easily retained his seat for the Durham mining district of Eas- ington. Shinwell has fought eve election since the First World War and he held various cabi- net posts in Clement Attlee's Labor government after . the Second World War.
