The Regina Leader-Post (Inde- pendcni-Ldberal): "Overwhelminz- ly the electors have pronounced against the leadership of Mr. Drew. With Quebec still solidly Liberal, the Conservative leader has suffered a staggering set-bad: in his own Province of Ontario — so serious indeed that his com- mand of the major opposition party becomes open to question."

following its decisive victory in Monday's eleclicn. Brantford E (Independ-

ent): “The strong and captivating personality of the new national captain of the Liberal Party was a

potent factor - the aggressive leadership of George A. Drew. while considered too incisive by

some of his critics, has not been repudiated - but whatever ‘ai- liance’ there was between Mr. Drew and Premier Duplessis. it plainly worked to the embarsas- mcnt of both."
