Mr.Si. Laurent Announces

He Will ‘Not

QUEBEC (CP)-—Former Prime Minister St. Laurent ‘has de- clined to seek nomination in Que- bec East riding for the March 31 general election, it was an- nounced Monday.

Mr. St. Laurent, 76, has held

ment read by Senator Jean Marie Dessureault, Quebec East Liberal party organizer, Mr. St. Laurent said uncertain health forced him to make the decision. The former prime minister was not present at the brief press conference.

He became prime minister in 1948 and last month was suc- ceeded by Lester Pearson as head of the Liberal party. ‘ In Ottawa, Liberal leader Pear- son said “I regret very much that his condition doesn’t make it pos- sible for him to be candidate in the election.”

He added: “I was delighted to learn, however, that he will be

able to help us in the campaign

obliged to bare its incompetence to this whole country.

Mr. Pearson’s statements were included in the text of his address issued to the press before deliv- ery. ‘ - ,1 Joining him on the program was Lionel Chevrier, one-time transport minister and the fed- eral Liberal party’s top man in Quebec. -.

Mr. Chevrier suggested the Liberal election pledge of $400,- 000,000 in tax cuts was a far better solution to unemployment than the Conservatives’ national works program. _

Unemployment was found 1n heavily-populated areas, such. as Quebec. But the Conservatives were planning construction in far- off places, such as a $100,000,000 highway in the Yukon vicinity “where there is nobody . . .and therefore no unemployment.”

“Do the Conservatives’ intend to force the unemployed of our cities to leave for the far north of our country to find jobs?” he asked.

ISSUES PEACE, PROSPERITY

Peace and prosperity were the two main issues. The risks of an- other war were great. It could start in such trouble spots as the Middle East or North Africa. Mr. Pearson could help prevent war.

A picture of what the Red Cross is doing on the Interna- tinonal level was given last night

to those attending the annual din- ner meeting of the Prince Ed- ward Island Division at the Char- lottetown Hotel. The speaker was George Aitken of Winnipeg, chair- man of the Central Council. Chairman Walter R. Shaw said it was the best meeting here in many years.

Mr. Aitken discussed some of the political problems one en- counters in an international meet- ing of a non-political organiza- tion as the Red Cross when deal- ing with such humanitarian sub- jects as reunion of families, por- tection of the individual and the control of nuclear weapons.

The Council chairman dealt with the International Red Cross Conference held last year in New Belhi. His ta1k.was made in the nature of a fireside chat than an after dinner speech but it held the meeting in rapt attention most of the way.
