Mr. st. Laurent replied: "What they really mean is that Parlia- ment has prevented them from riding roughshod over il."

He and Mr. Dieienbake crossed

swords repeatedly after the Pro- gressive Conservative leader promised a better tax-sharing deal to the provinces and Premier Frost of Ontario swung his politi- cal weight behind that stand.

Mr. st. Laurent said the Diefen- baker - Frost "partnership" might lead to preferred tax treatment for Ontario at the expense oi other provinces. CCF leader Cold- well spoke similarly.

Mr. Dlefenbaker said that was "one of the biggest prevarications in Canadian , "” ' history" and denied there was any "deal."

The prime minister's age also became an election issue. Mr. Dlefenbaker regularly reminded his audiences that Mr. St. Laur- ent gets the old age pension. pay- able to all Canadians at 10 years of age.
