FactsConcerning Leaders
(A Letter in the
Stratford -Beacon Herald)
Editor, Beacon -Herald:
Sir: Canadian citizens are
again faced with the responsi-
bility of choosing a leader.
Editorials of large daily and
small weekly newspapers are
warning us if we go to the polls
uninformed of the facts, Cana-
dians will deserve the leader
they elect.
How do we get the facts that
will enable us to think objec-
tively and take a long, hard
look at the two men who are
campaigning to be Prime Min-
ister? I have had such con-
flicting views pegged at me
with such apparent sincerity,
my intelligence rebelled. The
Liberals hail Mike Pearson as
the experienced world diplomat
and Canadian statesman. The
Prime Minister has constantly
vilified Mr. Pearson as an un-
patriotic critic who downgrades
Canada—a man grasping for
power.
The Conservatives exalt John
Diefenbaker as a great Cana-
dian who has given his life for
service of the Canadian peo-
ple. The Liberals, on the other
hand, accuse Diefenbaker of
tricking the credulous voters
with oratory, of mismange-
ment of the fiscal policy at

home, and of misjudgment in
policies abroad, particularly
with the United States.
Where can a citizen get the
true facts? Is Lester Pearson
an' experienced Canadian states-
man? Has he grabbed at pow-
er? Is John Diefenbaker a
great Canadian? Has he given
his life to the Canadian peo-
ple?
Sick to death of political
rhetoric, I went to the Strat-
ford Public Library in search
of facts, dull facts, unbiased
facts unmbellished with cam-
paign theatricals. For factual
information, concisely tabled,
the librarian referred me to
the new Canadian encyclopae-
dia, Canadiana. This is an
authoritative set of reference
books, recommended for use in
Canadian schools. In essence,
that is what I found out about
the two men's contributions to
Canada over the last 38 years.
Lester Bowles Pearson. Vol-
ume 8; page 135, Canadiana:
Minister's son. Ontario born.
Graduated from University of
Toronto. Awarded a Massey
Foundation Fellowship for post
graduate study at Oxford. Mas-
ter's degree from Oxford. In
1924 (age 27), history lecturer
at the University of Toronto;
1928 (age 31), Department of
External Affairs (served seven
years). 1935 (age . 38), joined
the staff of the High Commis-
sion ' in London, England.
Awarded the Order of the Brit-
ish Empire. 1951 served with
the Canadian Embassy in Wash-
ington. 1945 (age 43) Cana-
dian Ambassador to Washing-
ton. 1945 recalled by the
Prime Minister and asked to be-
come Under Secretary for Ex-
ternal Affairs. 1958, Requested
by the Prime Minister to leave
the Civil Service and seek elec-
tion in Algoma, in order to ac-
cept the appointment of Minis-
ter of External Affairs, Won
election.
The Canadiana Encyclopaedia
goes on to state of Pearson:
"He attended many interna-
tional conferences from 1930
(age 33) and was active in the
United Nations since its incep-
tion. He represented Canada
on the Council of ..UNRRA, and
at many sessions of the United
Nations. He was President of
the UN Assembly in 1052.53."
In 1949; L. B. Pearson signed
the NATO treaty for Canada,
and was chairman of the North
Atlantic Treaty Organization in
1951. In 1950, Pearson led 'the
Canadian delegation to the
Commonwealth Foreign Minis-
ters' Conference in Ceylon. In
the years 1951 and 1954 respec-
tively, Pearson led similar dele-
gations to the Japanese Peace
Treaty Conference at San Fran-
cisco and then at the Confer-
ence on German disarmament.
In 1951, Pearson published his
book, "Democracy in World
Affairs," In 1955, Pearson was
asked to become Chancellor of
Victoria University, Toronto.
In 1957,. Pearson was asked to
run for leader of the Liberal
party on St. Laurent's retire-
ment. He won on the first bal-
lot. The Canadiana says of
Pearson, "A leading architect
of the United Nations Emerg-
ency force in the Middle East,
and long an imaginative and
vigorous worker for world
peace. Lester . Pearson w a s
awarded the Nobel Peace Prize
in 1957—the first Canadian to
be so honored."

1940, the first year, he entered
parliament, John Diefenbaker
sought the leadership of the
Conservative party. He was de-
feated. 1948 (age 53, Diefenbak-
er again sought the leadership
of the Conservative party. He
was defeated. 1957 (age 61) John
Diefenbaker received the lead-
ership of the Conservative party
and went on to become Prime
Minister.
This is the record of the two
men set down by the Canadian
Encyclopaedia. It can be found
in all public libraries. It out-
lines the political contributions
to Canada of the two men from
their late twenties to their late
sixties.
It is said that as man grows
older, he grows neither better
nor worse, only more like him-
self. In the United States the
President is elected by popular
vote. In Canada, we can choose
our Prime Minister' only
through his representative in
our locality. Thus, each Canad-
ian who votes April 8, has the
responsibility not only between
two local candidates, but also
between two leaders, Lester B.
Pearson and John Diefenbaker.
