Ltd, 837 High Street. Phone: 5096322 There are demands for the leader, Mr. Callaghan, to resign and for sweeping changes in the way the party is run. "We are heading for a situation that will be as crippling to the party's prospects as anything in the past," an aroused Mr.

Callaghan warned Left-wingers at a party meeting last Thursday. It is not the first time a Labor defeat has led to blood-letting, but the landslide triumph by Mrs. Thatcher's hawkish Conservatives has brought open between Labor's firebrand Left-wingers, led by Mr. Tony Benn, and the moderates typified by Mr. Callaghan, 67.

In essence the Left is saying: "Lefs show our true colors and be real socialists instead of blurring the edges." And the Right replies: "That's the surest way to remain out of office forever." As the sides form for the showdown, much will depend on how much Mr. Callaghan alienated the country's unions with his 5 per cent anti-inflation pay limit last winter. Labor boasts that it is the natural party to rule predominantly working-class Britain, but unions angered by the pay code confronted their Government with a strike rampage which turned many voters towards the Conservatives. Union votes will be vital to Mr. Callaghan when the dispute reaches its climax at the annual party conference in October.

'Doctrinaire former Cabinet Minister Mr. Benn, who dropped his inherited House of Lords title of Lord Stansgate, will lead a grass-roots revolt hy the Left. Their demands were summed up by Mr. Eric Heffer, Labor Member of Parliament and Mr. Benn's close ally, when he said recently: "Rank-and-file party members want a greater say in policy and decision making.

"They want more influence over their Members of Parliament They want all forms of patronage ended, together with the abolition of the House of Lords." Mr. Benn, pushing for Mr. Callag-han's job, has already launched an assault on the breathtaking power and patronage of a British Prime Minister and called for reforms that would make the leader the tool of the party executive. If full-blooded socialists took con- I Mr. Callaghan: under challenge.

troL a future Labor Government would nationalise banks and insurance companies, cut defence spending and abolish the House of Lords, according to Ms. Josephine Richardson, leader of the party's Leftist Tribune Group and a Benn supporter. Leading Left-winger Mr. Dennis Skinner added: "What I want to do is to vchange the Labor Party so that people who do the work day in and day out have a little bit more to say and the elitist leadership have a little less." To this end, no fewer than 66 of the 380 resolutions submitted for the annual party conference call for procedural changes to wrest policy-making control from the party leader and his Cabinet and place it in the hands of local party activists and union representatives. One resolution from an East London constituency demands Mr.

Callaghan's resignation, accusing him of using a powderpuff to combat Mrs. Thatcher and of lacking socialist commitment. It is not likely to succeed. Mr. Callaghan is thought ready to retire before the next general election due in 1964, but not before he fends off the Left's challenge.

He hopes to be succeeded by a moderate such as the former Chancellor, Mr. Healey, or the former Environment Secretary, Mr. Shore. i YfS (Off aprmteip limBsfltfa, South Africa Opposition Tiftadfii falls weVe Mr. Eglin: uninspired performance.

From DOUGLAS ALEXANDER JOHANNESBURG, July 30. Mr. Colin Eglin is on his way out as Leader of the Opposition in South Africa. Slabbert, 39, who became an MP only five years ago. If elected he will 'become the youngest Leader of the Opposition in South African history.

Mr. Gordon WaddelL former British Lions rugby player and son-in-law of multi-millionaire financier Mr. Harry Oppenheierne, initiated the move to oust Mr. Eglin. Commenting on Mr.

Eglin's downfall Mr. Vause Raw, leader of the New Republican Party (which is rapidly gaining ground as the chief Opposition force) said: "The Progressives will not resolve their problem of electoral rejection and internal differences by changing leaders." The Progressive Federal Party (17 seats) became the official Opposition in 1977, when the New Republican Party won only 10 seats and the South African Party three. The National Party was re-elected to power with a massive 135 seats. The Progressive Federal Party has called a special congress in Johannesburg on September 3 to elect a new leader. The 60-member executive council of the party, which is the majority Opposition party in Parliament, turned against Mr.

Eglin during a marathon two-day meeting here at the weekend. His uninspired parliamentary performance which allowed the ruling Nationalists to recover from the Mul-dergate slush fund scandal just when they were reeling, his indiscreet contacts with the US black politicians Mr. Don McHenry and Mr. Andy Young, whom many South Africans regard as enemies of the country, and die heavy defeats of the party in three recent Parliamentary by-elections have contributed to 54-year-old Mr. Eglin's downfall.

The Sandi-nista National Liberation Front has asked the US for weapons to help defend Nicaragua against any attempted counter-revolution. Mr. Alfredo Cesar Aguirre, chief of staff of the Government of national reconstruction, said there had been no specific requests for any particular weapons. But he said the weapons would not be to arm more people, but only to consolidate the Sandinista army for the defence of Nicaragua. National Directorate member Mr.
