MEM'' .LAST CHANCE By RAY 4RGyI.E: The way has been cleared for Johnny Diefenbaker to. stay 04 at the iiebn of the Conservative Party, and to lead it agaio r ..... , the next Fed- era/ election« When the panty's nation- al ation-al executive met u Ottawa week -end be- fore Last, not a dissenting voice was heard to . Mr. i efenbaker's leadership. He Ray Argule d el i vered a rousing 90 - minute 0 - minute pep talk, after which one high-ranking Tory com- mented, "never/ has the party been so united." The fact is that the Conserva- tive Party is indeed united— what's left of it, that is. The national executive, con- trolled by pro-Diefenbaker men, will now set the stage for the Opposition leader to receive a rousing vote of confidence at the party's annual meeting in Ottawa next February. Mr. Diefenbaker's 1 o y a 1 prairie faction, supported by old-line Conservatives in rural Eastern Canada, is all-powerful as a result of decimations and desertions in the big cities. The performance of the Lib- eral Government since April has tremendously strengthened the old warrior's hold on his party. The budget backdown, pay boosts for MP's, labor trou- ble on the Great Lakes, con- tinuing unemployment and ris- ing prices all have given Mr, Diefenbaker sterling opportuni- ties to rap the Pearson admini- stration. At times, iri fact, it seems that Mr. Diefenbaker wasn't such a bad prime minister af- ter all.

Newspapers are more than purveyors of news; they also have a hand in creating it by digging it out of news sources who don't realize they have a news story. WINTER WEIGHT OIL the homes and offices of the sys- tem's 775 subscribers. A new fire -call system is now in effect. Separate "Fire Phones" have been installed in the homes of five firemen; when the "Fire" number is dialed, all five telephones will com- mence ringing, and the fireman answering the call will remain on the line until the firemen arrive at the fire hall.

Forbes of GoderichTownship, calls as customary for declara- tions. Meantime, there are only rumours to go by, but it may be significant that several in- formed sources mention the same names. The contestants may be Glenn Webb, reeve of Stephen, and Ralph Jewell, reeve of Colborne. Another strong candidate, if he were to decide this is his year, would be Roy Adair, reeve of Wing - ham, chairman of the agricul- ture and reforestation commit- tee and chairman of the local sites committee for the 1966 International Plowing Match. ' Reeve Webb was chairman of the important roads committee last year, and now is on agri- culture and warden's and per- sonnel. Reeve Jewell was chair- man last year of the Huron - view committee, and now is serving on finance and also the warden's and personnel commit- tee. Warden Forbes has intimated that he will not be represent- ing Goderich Township in 1964. The deputy -reeve is Grant Stir- ling. ROAD HOGS IN NEW YORK In 1650 there were many com- plaints in New Amsterdam, now New York, that untended hogs were roaming the streets and interfering with cart and wagon traffic.

In view of the new wheat sales to China and Russia, it also is: question- able er whether prairie voters will continue to back the Dviefenbak- . A Federal election .might come as early as next spring. While the voting could be de- layed, let is hardly likely the Pearson minority administration will hang on its full four years until 1966. The lure of majority govern- ment will have an almost hyp- notic effect on voters in the next election. No matter what the failings of the Liberals, they will be able to put the blame on their lack of a ma- jority. Being the party closest to having a majority, it will be hard to deny the Liberals a clear mandate in parliament. Regardless of the outcome, the next election will be Mr. Diefenbaker's last campaign. Either defeat or age will put an end to his career. Because there are so few men of real national stature left ina the Conservative bloc at Ot- tawa, the Tories will have to. turn to provincial parties for a new national leader. There will be at least three! leading contenders to succeed Mr. Diefenbaker, all of .them premiers who have shown com- petence both as vote -getters and administrators. Duff .Robin of Manitoba, John Roberts of On- tario and Robert Stanfield of Nova Scotia — any one would make an excellent Federal lead- er. eader. In the meantime, John Dief- enbaker will act out the last chapter of his incredible politi- cal career with all the drama and showmanship that once swayed juries and won acquit- tals in courtrooms throughout the West. LEGION CORNER By JACK HOLLAND Well, Comrades, here , we are back in Seaforth, and a bit of information for the coming ev- ents.

Parade will form up and move off from the Legion at 10:30 a.m.; Nov. 11: Our annual Cenotaph Re- membrance service. All mem- bers and organizations are re- quested to be at the Legion Hall at 10:30 a.m., 'to form up and parade to the Cenotaph for the service there. Nov. 14: Our regular and nomination meeting for the new executive for the new year. Let's have a real big turnout for this. Nov. 23: Our annual veterans' banquet. This is a must for us all. Now to wind this up, let's not forget the Poppy Fund.'

Be sure and wear a Poppy!
