Si. Laurent is Likely Successor

- u nose mmao Canadian Press stun Writer

OTTAWA. Jan. 20 -- (GP) _ Rt, Hon. Louis St. Laur t. a briliant French-speaking Canadian lawyer from Quebec city but a comparative- tyro in active politics, will lrlkely be the initial successor to Prime Minister MacKenzie King's: Liber. a1 party leader.

With Mr. MacKenzie King call- ing on the National Liberal Feder- ation to hold a conventlolfihis summer-probably next August - to select his successor, highranklilg party members felt there was little. doubt. that the 65-year-old Minister of External Mfalrs would tdke ovcr -- temporarily.

Even if the convention chooses Mr, St. Laurent, who only entered the cabinet in 1041. he probably would only iiill the gap for a few years. I-Iis years are against a long tenure as party leader and there are assresslve young men. in the cabinet coming ahead rapidly. A leading cabinet minister, com- menting on the likely succession. sa-id: "Mr. St. Laurent wili- bl chosen unan.mously by the con- vention this summer."

Asked about the attitude of the Western members to selecting a man from Quebec, he said: "That. will make no difference. We feel it will be unanimous. Western membe s will vote for him too." But it would likely be made clear at the convention that this was a stop-gap solution to the leader‘- shlp question.

Mr. St. Laurent himself has in- dicated he wants to get back to his law eventually and to_a quieter life beyond the turnmoil of federal politics. It is understood it has been the personal persuasion of the Prime Minister which has led him to continue in public life.

This seems to be the favorable position of Mr.. St. Laurent, but there are six other cabinet min- isters with known ambitions for the long-term leadership. They all have qualifications in varying degrees.

There is Finance Minister Abbott '48, who would be a strong con- tender. There is Defence Minister Claxton, 49, also well up in the field along with Health.Mlnlstel' Martin. 44.

There are the "mcn-undcr-{SO whom they talk about around Ottawa as potential leaders.

Then there ls Justice Mhister Ilsley, 54. and Agriculture Minister Gardiner, 64, the latter probably the sagest politician of the lm.
