ACADEMIC RECORD

His brilliant academic record includes master’s degrees in economics . and political science, and he‘ said he felt qualified to serve in a Liberal Cabinet as Minister of External Affairs, Trade and Commerce, or Agri- culture. ' _

Maintaining that the strongest factor in the recent Liberal con- vent1on_ was the faction that was Struggling for reform within the Liberal Party, he said the con- vention finally made this decision, and “if they do not follow this l>011C}f In a political campaign," he said, “Then they will have he- trayed the Liberal thinking peo- ple who were at that convention."

_ “Liberalism is a philosophy of life.” he said, “by which the In. dividual and his freedom of thought, action, and speech, is more important than a political party,” and he acknowledged that the great advances that have been made to date by the Liberal Par- ty have been made because of the pressure of the C. C. F. who have also Provided the most ef- fective opposition in the present Parliament.

He said that opposition has every bit as important a role in Parliament as has the govern- ment. “If I were leading the op- position today,” he said, “I wouldn't go into the House and say ‘now, Mr. Diefenbaker. every- thing you say is wrong, and everything you do is wrong’. I would follow the legislation, and if it were to thebenefit of Can- ada-I would support it; if it were not, I would musterlevery bltof opposition I could against it."

Of the ten names on his nomin- ation papér in the recent Liberal leadership convention, Mr. Hen- derson expressed frank disap- pointmeiit that none were from his native Prince Edward Island.

“I -felt that someof the 'P'.E.I. delegation might have volun. teered their "names on . -my paper, because I am an Islan-

Branch of the Canadian Legion ‘I

were installed in office last night at the general annual meeting of the branch.

Retiring president. Dr. Hub- ert MacNeill, presided at the meeting which heard reports from all. standing -committees indicating that an immense amount of service been carried on during the past year. ,

In the report of the president the poppy sale this year was one of thehighlights and show-, ed that it had been one of the most successful since the branch had been organized.

Under the chairmanship of Comrade E. J. MacNeill educa-

tional scholarship will be set up. ,

Three applications for mem-' bership were read at the meet- ing and on motion were accept- ed as members..

The secretary, James Hogan. read communications var- ious organizations which had, during the year, been visited by the Legion members and gifts presented. These included the Provincial Sanatorium where gifts were presented at Christ-

‘ mas to the patients, the Depart-

ment of Health, for gifts dur- ing the festive season to ‘pati- ents in the various hospitals; and one from Judge W. E. Dar- by of the Prince County Hos- pital thanklng the branch for its support in the recent ﬁnancial drive.

der. My father, who spent his life in Freeland. P.E.I., worked for the Liberal Party until his death, and was at the Liberal con- vention that nominated MacKenzie King. I really thought I should have had some P.E.I. names 0n_my nomination papers, and while I provided this oppor- tunity, I didn’t ask any of them, because I felt they should have volunteered.” I THAT ONE VOTE '

Regarding the one vote he re- ceived in the balloting, Mr. Henderson said that he had, in effect, withdrawn from the con- test in his final speech to the convention in which he turned to the other two candidates and said “which ever one of you is elected, Mr. Prime.-Minister- elect". He said that while he allowed his name to stand as a candidate he had a reform mission to fulfill in so far .as Liberalism is concerned, and that he had been determined to do this.

As his support rallied, he said, they realized that the officials did not wish to prolong the voting. and consequently having made his points to the conven- tion, with his supporters know- ledge of the matter he decided to withdraw in so far as the vot- ing was concerned.

“His withdrawl was made in such a manner “as to turn the votes that would have come to me, either to Mr. Martin or" Mr. PearsoIn,- without prefer-, ence to either one”. he said, “and consequently I intended not to have even one vote."

He told of a phone call the fol- lowing day from an ardent sup- porter who said that depite this, he had voted for him on a matter of principle because he was determined to vote for the reform measures advocated by

Rev. Mr Henderson.
