5 CP) Organized labor's long era of influence in government, such as it enjoyed under the Democratic "new deal" and "fair deal," appears over. The union bosses took a terrific licking in Tuesday's elections. All the union leaders, with one or two exceptions, supported the Democratic cause and urged the nation's workers to do likewise. But it seems apparent from the record vote and what "happened in the big industrial areas that the workers largely ignored the urging of their leaders. The victory of Gen.

Dwight D. Eisenhower demonstrated that labor unions lack the power, to a far greater degree than was often claimed, to deliver worker votes in key elections.

Truman is planning to make a formal statement at the White House two hours after his arrival. The future holds many uncertainties for him. But until Jan.

20, he is still president. And he must prepare for submission to congress a budget and an economic message as required by law. He may send up a state of the union message, too, although his staff says that is a custom rather than requirement. ft Ike Victory Hailed, Hit Conservatives in -Britain Happy hut Left-Wingers View villi Alarm LONDON, Nov. 5 (INS) British Conservatives enthusiastically greeted Gen.

Dwight D. Eisenhow er smashing presidential election, victory today, but there were worried comments from the left-wing "Bevanite" faction of the Laborite party. Prime Minister Churchill himself awaited an analytical official in a from the British embassy ashington, but eventually is expected to make a strong personal bid to Eisenhower for closest possible co-operation. Churchill and his close government aides did not comment immediately. They are fully aware of the magnitude of the job facing the new Republican president.

Won't Fresn for Meet It is understood that Churchill will not press for a meeting until Eisenhower firmly is in the saddle after inauguration next Jan. 20, and able to give policy answers to many questions troubling Britain. These include vital trade problems and also the question of closer cooperation in exchange of atomic information. But British-Foreign Secy. Eden may arrange an advance meeting with Eisenhower after his arrival in New York late this week.

While Conservative government loaders withheld comment there was unrestrained applause from Conservative "backbenchers" in parliament. Sir Waldron Smithers said: "The election of Eisenhower Is evidence of the trend in public feeling against atheistic, materialistic Communism." Feeling of Relief "The feeling is one of great relief. This is a great day." Another, Ronald Russell, said: "I am very happy." Top right-wing Laborltes did not immediately comment but Bevan-ites did. Michael Foot, an 'editor of the Bevanite "Tribune" weekly, said: "It is a terrible disaster for the cause of sanity and human decency all over the world It multiplies the dangers of an economic slump in America, which is the greatest danger to the free world." Bevanite Harold Davies said "I am worried because I think this pleasant president will be unable to resist the pressure of the "China lobby' (meaning the Nationalists) and those who believe they can kill the idea ot Communism with a gun." The Nixons came to the hotel after an afternoon of relaxation at nearby Laguna Beach. (AF Wirephoto).

to The Journal the C. Political Action com mittee, said: "Gen. Eisenhower has been selected as the president of all the American people. He is entitled to their support in carrying cut the duties and obligations of that high office." These are a few of the things the election results will probably mean for union labor: 1 The unions very likely won't have the same degree of sympathy at the White House under Eisenhower that they had under Presidents Roosevelt and Truman. Eisenhower has pledged to be fair to labor and every other element of the population.

But this sounds like a far different approach than the frank partisanship in behalf of labor which the unions enjoyed under Roosevelt and Truman. 2 There won't be any repeal of the Taft-Hartley labor law. Eisenhower has promised to make needed changes in the law, without being specific. Organized Paul A. Martin, publisher of The State Journal: Hayden R.

5 (JP Haggard Ohio penitentiary offi cials today began transfer of 150 prisoners to Camp Perry on Lake Erie following collapse ot a million-dollar prison riot. The melee brought death to one convict and wounds to four others and a state highway patrolman. While buses were getting ready for the trip to Camp Perry, prison guards shook down the 1.600 holdout convicts who surrendered late vesterdav inside beleaguered cell-blocks H. I and K. A Big Job The transfer to Camp Perry will be the largest movement of in mates in the prison's history even larger than the one in 1930 when a fire killed 320.

The movement will give Warden Ralph W. Alvis a place to put "hard core" prisoners while broken cell locks are repaired. Guards lined up the sullen holdouts in the prison courtyard, near the shells of four burned-out buildings. The convicts were searched for weapons lead pipes, knives and other traditional makeshifts of the big house. Begin Shakedown Officials inspected the battered.

For 18,000 miles he traveled, making a total of 212 speeches for Adlai Stevenson, driving himself even harder than when he campaigned for his own election when he was four years youngp 64 instead of 68. Crawls Into His Berth He finished each night so weary he crawled into his berth often too tired to look over speech material for the following day.

But each morning found him up at 6 o'clock smiling, cheerful, and eagerly awaiting another day. When the campaign ended in his native Jackson county, Missouri, the grey-haired, bespectacled Mis-sourian reflected optimism. Two of his former Democratic national chairmen, Frank E. Mc-Kinney and William M. Boyle, showed him private polls indicating Stevenson was "in." Truman didn't produce any polls himself, but he told reporters he thought McKinney and Boyle were "both on the rignt track." When he dropped his ballot into the box at Independence yesterday morning, he was asked whether he was sure that "is a winner." He replied with a grin: "Of course, no question about it."
