Aft9r eight years in the Pee- tt.iells Mr. Pell ha! tndieated he does not intend to seek re-elec- tion at the Association's annual meeting in, 'Parente November 4 e P. At 59, Mr. Bell stated he felt the presidency should go to a yeunger Man. Speculation is that Del O'Brien, Petebreke, national President of the Young Progres- OW) Conservative Association, will be a candidate. Mr. Bell was president of the Huron PC Association and the Western Ontarte Association be,- fore being elected president on the provincial body in 1960. He gave notice of his decision to step down in, a statement issued to commemorate 25 con- tinuous years of PC political power in Ontario. "Since the turn of the century," Mr. Bell said, "the Progressive Conservative Party has held power in Ontario for 50 of the first 68 years in the twentieth century." He noted that he had been as- sociated with George Drew, Thomas L. Kennedy, Leslie M. Frost and of course, John Rob- arts—"all four men who have guided the dynamic development of Ontario, during the past quarter century". In part, his statement was: "Today Ontario stands as a prosperous and progressive com- munity because of the vigorotis, competent and responsible lead- erehtla given to its Peel* by the. Ontario P.P. l'artY. In return, the citizens of.Qntario have Placed for 2 years, their trust and faith tr. oer *PartY. "This joint adveettire of peeple and Party 119,4 brought to Ontario, opportunity, security and pres- perity. It is a responsibility that the Party has neither taken lightly nor without sortie difficulty in a period of accelerating change., "Yet, the challeeges have been squarely met and through the hasic prineiples of realistic fis- cal policies linked to the neces- sary social action, our province can truly boast of being a place of oppprtunity—a place to stand! "On November 4th and 5th of this year, the Association will held its anneal meeting and bi- annual election of officers at the Royal York Hotel in Toronto. It will not be my intention to seek re-election to the post of president. "The Associatien remains strong, robust and broadly based with a deep feeling for social justice and responsible reform. It has in its ranks men and women who blend together the high qualities of experience, re- sponsibility and youthful vigour. "It is from these men and wo- men that we who have been trust- ed with the guidance of the Pro- gressive Conservative Assoc- iation - through the past many years, now look for new leader- ship and to continued success of the Association in the complex years that lie before us."
