National Chairman For Conservative Party Suggested

By ITARCY GDONNELL Canadian Press Staff Writer

OTTAWA, Sept. 25—S0me in- fluential Progressive Conservative party supporters are urging the appointment of a national chair- man to assist in the formulation of policy and in the rejuvenation of party organization across the country. it was learned authori- tatively today.

A source close to party aflsirs said that while party membership has not yet been fully surveyed he believed there was s growing demand for appointment of a national chairman who would act as a liaison among the party leader, the party and the electors.

He said the demands did not originate because of dissatisfact- ion with tho leadership of Hon. John Bracken, present party lead- er, or with the work of other of- ncials. There was a limit to their work.

Some supporters felt there was need for a man who could handle detail, a man who could have more direct contract with the people and consequently a more sensitive finger on the pulse of the electors.

The source believed Mr. Bracken would not be opposed to having a chairman work with him and that
