TIIIS WEEK AND NEXT MULTI - PARTY STALEMATE By RAY ARGYLE' • Prime Minister Pearson's ad- ministration is .walking a tight- rope in this new session of par- liament. A's with any minority government, its actions are actfluenced more ions are im- mediate politi- cal,:effects thdt by their 'long - term ef- fects on ,the country's wel- fare. On the oth- er side of the house, f our parties; e a ch motivated b y the- desire to 'strengthenj,their influence, view new legigatiot from - the pre- judiced eye of opposition bench- • es - This is why there is always an element of truth' in c Th - plaints by Canadian prime min- isters of "obstruction" from the opposition. And, unless a situation should suddenly develop 'where a gov- ernment den gamble on gaining' seats in a snap election, the inaction and paralysis usually deepens over a period of years. This is what happened to the Liberal regime in the closing years of its reign from 1935 to 1957. • It happened under Mr. Diefenbaker even more quick- ly. After beingable to take ad- vantage of public support in 1957 to ram through valuable new legislation, the Conserva- tive leader ,floundered, in ,a morass of indecision, culminat- ing in his defeat in 1962. The same process is already at work on. Mr. Pearson. In Canada,, as in the United States, this paralysis of the ex- ecutive by the elected assembly is at the central core of why government is able to move so slotly in a democracy. When compounded by the multi-party system's which has in recent years emerged in Can- ada, the problem becomes ,the more difficult. Canada', has riot had reason- able majority government for the past 15 years --the country has run the gamut from top- heavy_ Liberal and Conservative majorities -to ineffective minor- ity administrations. ' Not since the ' years from 1945 to 1949 have voters been able to provide the parliamen- tary system with the kind of balance where the government is strong enough to be able to free itself from the paralyzing grip of the opposition, but at the same time not so strong as to be trapped into smugness, contempt or arrogance. This, of course, is the great imponderable of democracy, be- cause in a closed polling booth Ray Argyle there is no way a voter can judge, whether he is one of a snail minority or of a herd' of sheep. There is, therefore, no assur- ance that Canada will soon re- turn to the happy state of af- fairs where the balance of pow- er in parliament rests impar- tially on the side of progress. , The only recent significant sign has been the setback suf- fered by Real Caouette's separ- atists in last week's two Mont- real by-elections. The Conservative party, _after a year of desperate in -fighting, has settled down under John Diefenbaker for at least one more election. The New Demo- crats, some of them flirting with ideas of a merger with the Lib- erals, continue to hold their hard core .of fundamental sup- port. There is still the possibility of a Conservative -Social Credit liaison, but short of this, Can- ada appears committed for some years yet to a multi-party system. It will therefore con- tinue'to be -exceedingly difficult. for any government to bridge the chasms between city and country, East and West, French and English.

DOES SHUR•GAIN TAKE THE EXTRA TROUBLE TO MAKE SELECTED -GRANULATED FERTILIZER ' Because it's more effective. SHUR-GAIN Fertilizer is granulated after the ingredients have been mixed and isnot just a blend of granular materials. Asa result each granule contains all three plant food elements in the right proportions. Ordinary granular and blended fertilizers simply consist of a mixture of ingredients, either in powder form or. granules. Although it's easier to make fertilizer that way it cannot be as effective in use due to the separation of ingredients of . different size and weight. . As every granule contains all the guaranteed plant food elements, SHUR-GAIN Selected -Granulated Fertilizer remains completelybalanced storing, shipping and spreading —resulting in balanced feeding of plants from every granule; consistent, more even application of the best possible fertilizer to give you maximum yields and top returns from your fertilizer dollar.
