Surely, l; Mr. Macmillan had stapflcrl to thing about it, he would rralize that '11." “p0rtfolio" rabbit trick is the mcoi over-worked election stunt 2n Prem- ier King's whole campaign 'p;-»»_ gramme. Every-where h1- goea my King pulls. or pretends to pull. a portfolio rabbit out of his hat. 011.13: a. few weeks ago he announced that i! elected he would reorgaruze his Cabinet after July 2Bth~presumah1j1 to give disgruntled Quebec a better "break" in the matter of portfolio appointments. And if Quebec shmld

want the Fisheries portfolio. what would happen to Prince Edward Is-i land's promised represcnfafzon in; the Cabinet? The gnsvw-r 1s easy. we i know what happened tn 1t in 192s. when Mr. Macmillans predecessor not, only failed to get a portfolio but was sacked from the Cabinet. mill-i out a word of explanation or ex-j cuael .

‘These men, he complains are "pol- iticnl monopolists," to control the political destinies not only of their own provinces, but the whole of Can- ada. And his fears are well ground- ed.
