-Saturday Night is distressed 'be-
cause •a prominent daily' newspaper
used. `the word `flaunt” when it

",except ignorance or absent -minded -

never noticed it in our reading.
Saturday -Night rather weakens the
force of its rebuke by the use of

MR. OLIVER'S RESIGNATION
The Owen Sound Sun -Times dis-
cusses the resignation "of Mr. Oliver,
as the Liberal leader in, 'Ontario
• and, ' declares flatly - that the party
should not accept his _withdrawal.
It says:
There •should be no need for
"thinking over" the proffered resig-
nation of Farquhar Oliver as On-
tario Liberal leader. There can be
only one laudable. course for the
Party's •.mandgerent committee :to
,take when the ;natter. ;comes before
ft for 'consideration—and that:. is
prompt and very • definite refusal.
As with 'his"""one-tiine opponent
the Ontario Legislature, the Hon.
George Drew, there have been -many
rumors drifting • about • thatFar-
.gtihar, Oliver would resign his_iJairty.
leadership. Following the defeat of
,his party . uiitler-' :his leadership: --in,:'
the most recent Ontario election,
these rumors were startejd in circu
latioii. And they have been con-
tinued ever since as Certain groups
hi both Ottawa and Toronto appar-
ently sought to "put the heat on."
'The same thing happened to
George, Drew following the Pro-
gressive Conservative defeaL.in the
recent F ederal election. ,. Hisre-
,*ignaition; too, wale the Xub;`tett for
feel uent • party rumors. The party
had suffered defeat under him,
-hadn't it? SO out. he must go.
That 'appears to be the - strategy
of small. ,roups"in both- the Liberal
and progressive •Con iirvai;tiye par-
ties. And it -can be ti,truthfuily
stated that such a strategy roes not
receive the sanctions of party fol-
lowers at large,. The thinking
