liberal Party Is Said Recovered From Ruins 0i Humilia

By BEN WARD

(i'l‘TAWA rCTN—On the chilly night of March 31. 1958. Lester B. Pearson watched the Liberal arty plummet to the worst election defeat in its history. The party he had headed for only 64 days lay shattered.

Friends urged him not to at- tempt, the back-breaking job of rebuilding '

‘ The interval wasn't easy for Mike Pearson, who will have his 66m birthday 15 days after the April 8 federal election. But the results of the vote last June 18. which doubled the Liberals’ Commons strength and cut the Progressive Conservatives down to a minority government. have given him new energy.

in reviving part}; Mr. Pearson also had to i'cmoiild himself. He had to switch roles from an accomplished master of foreign affairs to that of a conidcnce-inspiring lcadc'.‘ ' domestic politics. It meant turn- ing from the othermorld almos- plicre of diplomacy to immerse himself in the not~so—dainty re- alilics of parliamentary infight- ing. party organizing and policy ecisions turned to conflicting provincial. regional and local intcrcsts.

tone of the current campaign. Last year the stress was on the “Pearson team.” This time it its on Mr. Pearson's personal leadership. "Mike for Me in '63." the campaign buttons pro- claim.

Rcfore he took on the leader-

rent. r. Pearson had already won world fame as a trouble- shooter and peacemaker. His crowning achievement was in 1956 when he won acceptance of a proposal that a UN Emer- gency Force be sent to Egypt to neutralize its border with Israel after the British-French. sraeli Suez attack. A year later he was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.

His 10 years as external af- fairs minister in the former Lib- eral government were marked by other achievements: A lead- ing role in shaping the NATO alliance: presidency in 1953 of the UN General Assembly which worked out the Korean armis- tice pact: nine years as leader of the Canadian UN delegation: two nominations for the UN secretary-general} post. both rejected by the Communists. and service on the three-man committee for NATO integra- tion which became known as “the three wise men."

JOINED CABINET

When he joined the cabinet in 1948 after 20 years in the for- eign service. Canada became a voice in the world far beyond its power status. And the voice was that of Lester B. Pearson.

In his early years It would have been difficult to picture Mike Pearson as a future florce in world councils.

Born in Toronto. the son and grandson of Methodist minis- ters. he joined the army medi- cal oorps at IT. transferred to the infantry and fought, in Salon- ikIa in 1915 and 1916.
