It will then be taken to Toronto by special train for burial Thurs- day moining in Mount Pleasant cemetery beside the graves of hi: parents, Mr. and Mrs. John King. and his brother, Dr. J. MacDougali King.

in n public career of nearly 50 years. Mr. King left an imprint on Canadian life that only history will fully reveal. But he was a modest- livinz. lonely and somewhat aloof man. His actions were unosten- atious.

Since Christmas. he had been in failing health and seldom left Laurier House, where for much of the time he was confined to his bed. -

Leaf. Public Appear ..

His last. public appearance was in mid-June during - the Imperial Press conference of the Empire Press Union which brought to Ot- tawa newspaper publishers frmi nli'parts of the Commonwealth.

Mr. King attended the state din- ner glven the delegates by the Canadian Government. but remain- ed only for the pine-dirmer re- ception. meeting all the delegates. many of whom were old friends-

It was noticed then that he had failed greatly and that his appear- ance wen nchicved only by ("Eli physical effort.

But he told friends he honed to go at once to his place in Kings- mere, where the quiet surroundings and warm weather so often had brought him back to strength in the post when he was worn and iii from the strain and stress of his offlcc..

It came from a private sec- of his early days in office, Ilncarelor, who recently resigned as chief commissioner of the Combine: Investigation Act and lock on the tube! helping his old chit! with his insnoin.

Hm LIIIC-Mlllllkf

Mr. King. gnndaon of William Lyon Mncxenlie. rebellious fight- er for responsible government in Canada. entered public life in 1000 at the request of the late sir William Mulock, who wanted him to help organize the first Canadian Department of Labor.

He was the first Deputy of Labor. With the exception of the First world War yearn-loih is when he was with the Rocke- feller Foundation-Mir. King has been a prominent nnd usually doin- gilnnt figure in Canadian public

9 .

In later years, the strain on his health took the form of frequent attacks of pulmonary ailments.

He took frequent trips in aeprch of health. usually to Virginia and

other southern resorts, during the spring. He formed a close friendship

early in life with the late Frank- lyn D. Roosevelt with whom he was on a first name basis.

The late United States President called him "MacKenzic" and he called Mr. Roosevelt "Franklin." It is unlikely any other friend, except Sir William Mulock, ever addressed M-r. King so familiarly.

By 1947. Mr. King's heavy re- sponsibilities through the war and wars aftermath had taken their toll. He was seriously ill with a pulmonary ailment in the spring of that year.

It was then he began to think of retiring. Early in 1948 he had a Liberal convention called to pick his successor whom he hoped would be Mr. St. Laurent. the man he had brought into politics as Min-

ister of Justice in 1941 with that end in view. The convention chose Mr. St.

Laurent Aug. 7, 1949. just 29 years to the day from the time Mr. King had been chosen to succeed Sir Wilfrid Laurier. For the time, he retained the office of Prime Min- ister.

Mr. King then went to the Gen- eral Assembly cf the United Nat- ions in Paris which he addressed. although the start of his last ill- ness was already upon him.

He went from Paris to London for a conference of Commonwealth Prime Ministers. but became so ill that he was forced to remain in bed in his hotel for a month.

Urged To Relax

The King's physicians and other specialists told him he would have to give up active public life and ta1i;c the best possible care of him- se .

Mr. King travelled home by ship early in November, 1948. landing in New York. He remained abcd on the trip and was weak and wasted on arrival.

Back home he seemed to im- prove. but was finally convinced that he must shake himself free of all. public responsibilities to regain his health. '

Then nearly 74. he drove to Government House through the bleak winter chill of Nov. 15. 1948. to resign the office of Prime Min- -ister--he -had -held-so -long. '

From then on. he lived largely in retirement. reading, resting and working on his official memoirs of a career that encompassed and often dominated the first half of Canada's 20th century.

The man who was born Dec. 17, 1874, at Berlin (now Kitchener). Ont.. had a lot to look back on.

I-lisiwas a political career that made him Prime Minister three times. saw him launch Canada to- wards the welfare state with broad social legislation, saw him lead the country through the Second world war and into the atomic age as a young. maturing giant accepted as n major partner by the United States and the United Kingdom.

lie began to lead Canada in 1921. a 48-year-old Prime Minister who two years before had been picked by the Liberal party from among four candidates for the party ladership left vacant by the death of Laurler. The countrv was bucking the problems left by ltr first big war. ,

Ilighlighu In Career

Chronologically, his political life was marked by his election to the Commo as 3 member for the Ontario riding of Waterloo North in 1908: appointment to the -Lnurler cabinet as Labor Minister in 1909: his selection as Sir Wil- frid'a successor lo years later; his first election victory as lead- er in 1921; the stalemate election of 1925, three months out of of- fice and then the election victory of 1926; defeat for the Liberals in 1930; victory again in 1935 to launch a 13-year stretch thlt ci0!' ed out his record.

Paradoxicaliy. thin man who led the country longer than any other -a sober, cautious lender often occused of lacking color-was de- feated personally at the polls four times. By-elections furnished the avenue that allowed him to return to the Commons to lead his Lib- eral backers.

He was revered or rccpctcd by his foilowcre as a master perilo- nientnxian. I. shrewd DIN! ind" er who could sense the thlnkinz of the people and crystallize it In action as could few men before him and no one in his own time.

propabiy as no other Canadian before him. he became a world figure and enhanced Cnnedta ato- tua in doing no. He conferred Is an equal and II I friend with Franklin Roosevelt and Winston Churchill In the dark day! of the wnr.

Annual Services largely Attended

The annual ceremonies ob- serving St. Anne's Sunday were held yesterday It Lcnnox Island and were very largely attended by Deobie from all parts of the Province. An estimated crowd of three thousand people crossed over to the Inland. ferried over by boats provided by the local residents for the occasion. .

The solemn High Man was celebrated by Rev. W. E. Monachnn 01 Alberton. named by Rev. wu- iilm Simpson and Rev. Wilfred Pineau of st. Dunaten's University; 3150 by Rev. Howard Shea with Rev. Claude Shea as master 'of ceremonies.

The sermon was delivered by Rev. W. Leonard MacDonald of W9iiin8ton. In the afternoon con- firmation was admtnistered by the Most. Rev. James Boyle, Bishop of Charlottetown, who was met at the landing by a large procession 0! Parishioners and children He was accompanied by Rev, J, w, Mccordle, the chancellor of the diocese,

Assisting in the ceremony were Rev. M. J. Rooney of Bloomfield and Rev. Wilfred Pincau of SDJJ.

The benediction was given by Bishop Boyle. At the ceremonies there were pi.sent in the sanctu- ary Rev. E. W. Mclnnls. P.P.. Rev. Father Landrigan, Rev, Bernard Glllls. Rev. J. w. Lcclair. In thl! morning before going to Lennox Island Bishop Boyle administered confirmation to a class at Grand River where the mass was cele- brated by Rev. Thomas MacLe'.- lan.-S. -

and Chicago universities, became deeply interested in social prob- lems and. as a. young newspaper Teporter for the old Toronto Globe, was instrumental in having a (air- wage clause written into govern- ment legislation.

The memo he wrote on that sub- ject led to his appointment as Deputy Labor Minister and aban- donmcnt of plans to lecttire at Harvard.

I His 1919 election as party leader came not without surpruse because he defeated three seasoned. older men with larger claims on party loyalties. But all three served in his cabinet.

In 1926. he fought and won a celebrated election on the constit- utional issue of the right of a Governor-General to refuse a Prime Minister's request for dis- solution of the Commons. as Lord Byng had refused his.

Champion of Autonomy

That same year hisppresentation of Canada's case at the Imperial Conference was a vital step in the development of Dominion auton- omy as expressed in the Westmin- ster slatute of 1931.

Mr. King came through other momcnious issues, such as the conscription crisis of 1944 when he dramatically reversed the policy of live war years and ordered con- -script-ion--of soldiers for overseas service.

His long interest in social prob- lems powered him through legis- lative measures that included Can- ada's first labor code. old age and blind pensions. unemployment in- surance, family allowances and promotion of a scheme of national health insurance.

He took Canada into the Second World War promptly and united. and ,one of his supreme satisfact- ionsiwas the return of his govern- ment in the 1945 election which followed Germany's defeat.

As Minister of External Affairs for years. he started Canada's for- elgn diplomatic service by sending ministers to Washington and Tokyo and saw it grow to large propor- lions. He led the Canadian deleg- ation to the I945 San Francisco conference that launched the Un- ited Nations.

'The movements for a North At- lantic security alliance and ab- sorption of Newfoundland as In 10th Province were started in his tenure of office but completed by the man he favored as his succes- sor. Louis St. Laurent.

Mr. King believed strongly in the idea of the United Nations.

He headed the Canadian deleg- ation tc the initial conference in San Francisco in April. i945. 1'9- turned to fight and win the gen- eral election of that year. and NW back to San Francisco to sign the historic charter at the end of June.
