7 The-Neywv Leader

Jtitl.'.'itig hy yt-sterday's rotising convention. there seems no question but that the Progressive Conserva- tive Party has enlcrcd upon a new lca.-'c of lifc in this llroviucc. A big attraction. of cntirsc, was the pres- ence of Prime Mttiister llicfcnhaker and the stii'ring speech which he rlcliicrcd: but this did not altogether accotint for strikiiig dcnioitstratioti of eiithtisiasni. The ttiisiness-like tnauner in which the convention tut.-1 rouclttctcrl front start to finish was also quite itnprcssivc.

No doubt the choice of the dele- gates was a difficult one to tnake.

ycstcrdayis

The close balloting results. .'i;'vl to 3'32, slioucri this tcry clcarly. We bclictv they made no niislakc in the majority vote wliiclt they gave Mr. Walter R. Shaw. 'l'houglt lack- ing a seat iii the Legislattire at present. Mr Shaw has otltci lcarict'- sliip qi,ialil'it-atinns of otitstanding Importance in any political party

In this Province. He is preemiocntly an agrictillural spokcstnaii. familiar frmn Inn: cxpcricnce with all our farntiug prolilenis. known pcrsotially across t'anada In this capacity and especially at Ottawa where he has gone mi countless oi-misioiis in the lf1IPl'PblS of the industry. provincially and nationally. Only recently he took a leading part. its chairman of the potato cnnlmlllce of the Horti- ctiltur:tl f'outicil of ('atiatia. in press- ing for tariff rcadjti.st.inciits with the llnited States. and ever since his retirement as hepiity Minister nf .Kgt1'ciilttire he has remained acme in proniotitig agriciiltural in- terests. He has it wide knowledge of public affairs and of governmental activities in all its phases. as well as organizational ability which will be of particular importance in the duties he has now assumed.

Dr. l.. G. Dewar proved a strong Etittlestani for leadership lionotits, and his party is fnrttinate in hating I man of his ability in the House. He accepted the verdict last night In I sportsmanlike manner. and pledged his ftill support to the new leader. This is somctliing which Mr. Shaw will have I right to expect from Ill members of the party. if he can maintain the enthusiasm shown at last night's convention. we can be sure of I livelier contest than we have had for many years when the next provincial election mime! round. '

Not In Good Light

The United Nations' condemna- tion of the Soviet I7riion for its brutality in Ilnngary will. oi rotitse, be commended. hv right -tltinking pta(iplO everywhere. Not that it will in the Hungarians much good: but at least It will show that the ll.N. Is not entircly lacking in sclf rcspccl and moral force. In time that may he of benefit to mankind.

The coincidence of the passitig of the resolution with the racial violence at Little Rock.'NashvilIc and other cities of the Southern United States will not, however. sttoitr tip the American sponsorship nf Ithe resolution in I very good Iiglll. The Hungarian press. and with sortie Justification. is saying that the United States takes one stand on clvu rights In the UN. and another ambng its own citizens. In the ll.N. debate I spokesman for the Hun- garian regime told the chief delegate frofn Ceylon. one of the countries which brought. in the report on Hungary. "you had better not go to Little Rock or you'll be spit upon.”

t was probably true. Any dark-

Youth Fitness

It is generally agreed that from the standpoint of physical nutrition the American standard of living is as high as any in the world. Ameri- cans themselves say it is the high- est. as it probably is. It can also be stated that nowhere in the world is mote emphasis placed on physical fittiess: colleges and universities have departments which attend to nothing else. indeed. in schools of-all levels, right down to kindcrgartcii. physical education ranks equally with acade- mic training. It might even be t-laim- - ed that over the nation as a whole the concept of a sound body takes prcccdciicc over that of "book learn- itig".

A SllllllEtl' pattern is eviticiit in civic orgartizatiott. There is scarcely a contniunity. however small. which lines not have a public playground. a hove cliih devoted mainly to the developnient of healthy outdoor ex- ercise. hiking clubs, scout orgatii7.a- lions and all the rest.

It comes as a sllrtwisc, tIici'cl'orc, to hear that the average young American ranks far behind his Eti- ropcau rotiritcrpart in pliysical fil- ticss and stamina. Not that. htit young Americans today. al- though they are taller attd heavier than those of prcvioiis generations - uhou the standard of liiing was much lower and much less cmpliasis was placed on physical education- are not nearly as robust.

This is the gist of a ltrntiizlit ill by the Ptlcstrivititis Foun- cil of Youth Fitiicss wliirit has hccti surveying the situation for some i

'l'hr-y probably are at a loss to think tip anything that might improve the situation.

It would be ltitercsting to hear Irt-in evpcrl rcscarclicrs just how young (iauadians are standing up in this respect.

Ontario Liberals meeting in cali- ctis declared that "the political alli- ance between Prime Minister l)icfcn- baker and Premier Frost jeopardizes the best interests of the people of Ontario." There's something wrong somcwliete. Down this may the l.iberals. are sayingtliat the alleged alliance is a great thing for Ontario but very bad for other parts of the country. especially the Matitimcs.

Quite the contrary. if any ion of hearing is even suspected. a hearing specialist should be con- sulted right away. In I great many cases. medical treatment following early discovery of hearing loss will clear up the difficulty entirely.
