Mr. MacLcan reminded Th 2 Guardian's Ottawa wuespondent that candidates for the leadership had not as yet been nominated and that Mr. Diefcnbalrer had not de- finitely thrown his political hat in- to the national convention ring During the past two days., the Queens membc attended the caucus of Conservative membc a of the Commons and the meeting of the executive of the Progressive Conservative Association of Can- ada.

He said he was quite satisfied with the choice of Ottawa as the locale for the leadership convent- ion in December. Aitii-nigh he had felt earlier that Winnipeg had been more likely to get the nod. Mr. MacLt-an had attended the Ottawa leadership convention of 1948 as a delegate and voiced satia- fartion that the convention head- quarters here had been greatly im- proved and expanded since that time.
