Premier McNair arri|ed in the capital unobtrusively, and eluding newspapermen made his way to ‘he Prime Minister's suite of of- fices in the east block. It is un- derstood that his conference with Mr. King dealt not only with the general political situation ln New ‘Brunswick but with the choice of u successi- to Mr. Bridges in the former Conservative‘ rid- ing of Yorlt-Sunbury which the late minister represented.

It is taken for granted that the Liberal party would welcome Mr. McNair as its candidate in York-Sunbury and that he might he offered the Fisheries portfolio ir event of being elected there.

When asked the cause of the long delay between his departure from Rapids/Lake and notification of his planned flight at Goose Bay Mutton said he had only given s verbal flight plan at Rspide Lake.

"I should have waited and fil- ed a regular one but I was in too much cf a hurry."

This probably accounts for the fact that the search for Mutton was not started until two days after he left the Quebec bass.
