iiuaatlon 0i King's Retirement ls Heated At. Ottawa

A

OIITAWA. larch 5'—-(5lreciui)- Mnot question of Prime Minister King's retirement as leader of the Government was revlewed'ol1 Parliament I-llll today by no less s. person than Mr. King himself Addressing a Silo-person delegat- ion of the Canadian Ovnzrsss of Labor. the Prime Minister confess- ed that “solution of problems gets no easier from year to year," and added that he felt the time had crcne to hand over the handling of. Canada's problems to "the younger men." Some members of Parliament in the railway coni- mittee rocrn at the time the re- mark was made took Mr. King's cryptic comment as indicating a drop in External Affairs Minister St. Laurent's stock as a successor to the party and. Government leadership.

While at Ottawa. "a. young mil)" may be b0 or even N, the term would never be applied to a ultn of w. 8t. lnurentb yea-rs who confesses to 06 years and one month. The remark brought coul- fort however to Pins-rice Minister Abbott, Health and Welfare Min- lster clarion and Irsnlucri- Min- ister Chevrial‘, all of‘ whom are just barely on the sunny aide of so. Nor is My. Ilaley by any means out of the runnina’ since despite his many years in the Commons he was 5d just two months sgo. Purpose of the two labor del- egations today and on ‘fliursday was to present the views of org- anised labor on the preuinl dim- tione of the day, to the Dominion cabinet. Actually to an onlooher. it appeared more like a group oi ambitious ministers "preaching for a call" st a fashionable urban church. All six ministers and one or tavo other: into the hi1!!!"

with Messrs. 8t Laurent. Abbott and Chevrier await-int P" 5°“ days. Bole absentee who is re- garded u a. prospective Liberal crown prince was Agriculture Min- ister Gardiner who was receiving delegations of urgent importahce.

Of interest to the Mlriiimifid" vlnces and British Columbia was Transport bdinister Chevrisrb flat announcement that a. labor repre- sentative would not be appointed to the Canadian Maritime Com- mission an salted by the labor W1- ions.

Tha Maritime Commission. Mr. Chevrier said was a "quasi judic- ial” body having no direct con- neptien with either management or labor as such. Labor had not been overlooked but it had no wcl-i- donned role on such s. commis- sion, the Minister explained. How- ever, he said he would be glad to name s. labor representative to an advisory committee to the Marl- time Cozninission or to a technical committee in connection with the commission's work,

w. Ohevriei-‘s announcement foresnsdcvs the appointment o! a replacement on the commission to H. J. Rahlves, former president of Park Btearnships whose resignat- ion was recently ‘accepted. Ill- heslth was liven as the reason for Mr. Rahlves‘ retirement but in marine transport iciroles here, it is well known that he failed to get along with his ieilowccommlssiorl- era, J. V. Clyne of Vancouver and I... C. Audette of Ottawa.

Strong pressure to appoint s. man from the Maritime Provinces to fill the vacancy continues to be applied from Maritime mem- bers of parliament snd particular- ly those from Nova Scotia. To- dqy, The quardim was informed that Mr. Ohavrier and his top aides are reviewing siwgested can- didates from the Maritimes for the post. They up seeking a com- missioner. wlth wide practical shipping experience to balance the technical qualities of the two oth- er members of the body who are lawyers. .

The Royal party will travel by sea. There was no definite indicat- ion that the royal ship, possibly the battleship Vanguard. will go to New Zealand first. But the.42,- boo-torn Vanguard. which carried the royal family to south Africa, might have trouble in negotiating the Suez Canal and the route via the Panama.

The journey to the western ses- boai-dof Australia vin Suez is sp- proxlmutcly the some distance as to New Zealzmd via Panama- roughly 11.500 miles in each case.

The voyage presumably would tcike at least 30 days. Both King George and Queen

FOOTWEAR CARE PAYS DIVIDEND!

Ihm milady's shoee [Q IQ, dontiumletthemdryent by themselves.

That's the advice offered by the Shoe Manufacturers‘ Association of Canada, which also drops a few -hints on the-care and training of leather. ,

When shoes get wet they should be taken of-f es sooh as possible, not only to avoid colds, but also because leather is week when wet. And there's just one correct way to dry shoes. First, stuff them with soft paper or absorbent cloth aryl pat the outside with a soft cloth. Then remove the stuffing and allow them to dry slowly sway from the heat.

Now, while soaking one’: feet in s. tub of hot water, clean the drying shoes with saddle soap. Next, using the fingers, rub in a little sulfonated ‘cantor oil. which can be bought at a drug store. When the shoes are soiit and di7 snd only then —they're ready to polish.
