Drew said Canada is sympa- Iletic to Latin American claims lexclusive fishing rights up to mmiles off-coast but said ap- , pmval by the conference is

- He urged Chile, Peru and ’ Ecuador to accept the 12-mile zone.
lllPllASIZES SUPPORT
* Drew emphasized Canada's support for the existing three- mile limit on territorial rights ~ and said to extend it would be 9 "setting the clo c k back 300 x years."
1‘: Proposals by Russia and sev- . oral other countries that coastal states should be granted the right ‘* tilix their own sea border up to ..maximum of 12 miles accord- jig to their own interests would 7 lead to anarchy.
' Drew said many communities ‘ iitanadia and elsewhere depend to their existence on fishing. _“We have imposed a 12-mile listing limit on our own‘ trawlers “since 1911 for the protection of urshore fisheries. Thus within LL12-inile contiguous zone, our run fishing trawlers have ‘ieen ,, denied by law the right to fish for = fl years.
NATURAL DESIRE
‘ "It is only natural that we or tlollld seek an international law Vlich will impose the same re- :1 striction upon tr a W l e r s from N other countries.”

staterneiit “a step in the right di- rection” and Sean Morrissey of
Ireland backed the 12-mile fish-‘
cry proposal.
eral William Y. Wood in Lanark came as a surprise because it had be-en expected that George Doucett, former Ontario roads minister who won the riding by acclamation in a abyelection last summer, would again be unop- posed.
Surprising too was the late en- try: into the race of 23‘ candidates in Quebec, five CCF and the re-
mainder independents, including’
Georges Rousseau in Montreal Mercier who called himself a Radical Chripstian.
The Communist Labor-Progres sive party, headed by party leader Tim Buck in Toronto Trin- ity, has 18 candidates in the field, compared with 10 in 1957.
The dean of Commons mem- bers, A Clair Casselman, will contest his lltli election since he entered the House as a Conserv- ative in 1921. Mr. Casselman, 67, is PC candidate in Grenville-_ Dund-as. wherehis opponents are his namesake Liberal Arthur C. Casselman and Robert H. James, Social Credit. -
BRIEF RESLPITE
Apart from a brief period after
1921 when he resigned from the
House to make his seat available to Arthur Meighen, Mr. Cassel- man has ‘been a member since his first election. Almost match- ing this term ofuservice are two other PC candidates: Earl Rowe in Dufferin-Simcoe; who has held a seat since 1925 with_the excep- tion ‘of a. period in 1936-37 when he headed the Conservative party
in Ontario, and R. H. McGregor‘ in Y-ork East, memrbersince 1926."
' Twenty-one members of the last House are not seeknig re- election. They include 16 Liber- als, two Progressive Conserva- tives. two Social Credit party and one iiidependent.
.A'm'.\ng theseabsentees is Rev. Dan ii/ICVIVOI‘, Liberal member for Fort William since 1935 and at 85 the oldest‘ member of the last House. Another veteran Liberal retiring from politics is» Joseph Dechene, 78, member for Atha- baska since 1940. ’
Louis-Rene Beaud-oin, Speaker of the last Liberal Parliament and centre of the controversial pipe line debate during that ses- sion, has retired to private life after representing" Vaudreuil- Soulanges since 1949.
QUELCH RETIRES
The Social Credit party also has lost one of its central figures in the retirement of Victor Quelch, ‘ Acadia’s member since 1935. Two Newfoundland Liber- als, members since Confederation in 1949, have dropped from the federal scene. They are T. G. W.
Aslibourne in Grand Falls-White.
Bay-Labrador and Leonard T. Stick in Trinity-Conception. Former prime minister Louis St. Laurent, 76, who represented Quebec East since 1942, has re- tired. Missing with him in this election are eight of his former cabinet ministers who were de- feated last ‘June: C. D. Howe, Walter, Harris; Stuart‘ Garson, Ralph Campney, Robert Winters,
James McCann. Hugihes Lapointe‘
and Milton Gregg.
Ex-Liberal cabinet ministers whoretained their seats in June and who will seek election again are: Mr. Pearson, Paul Martin, James Sinclair, Lionel Chevrier, Jean Lesage, J. W. Pickefsgill. George Marler and James G. Gardiner.
Mr. Gardiner, a former pre- mier of Saskatchewan, has’ been in politics for 44 of his 74 years, winning his first election inthe provincial field in 1914. He has represented Melville in the fed- eral House since 1936, when he was elected in a byelection after previously having been appointed agriculture minister i-n the Mac- kenzie King cabinet.

TORONTO (CP) -—- C. Sydney Frost, president of the Bank of Nova Scotia, who is spearheading a 1,750,000 drive for the Acadia University F-und, said Thursday strengthening small, decentralized universities is the best method of meeting the challenge of higher ‘education in Canada.
