They complaincd especially about the scant consideration given them by radio and TV stations and about the sceptical manner in which their long range weather forecasts are received by the public. The fact that meteorological predictions do not fare much better did not seem to console them at all; at least no men- tion is made of it in the proceedings. On the bright. side.l the belief was expressed that astrology may yet play an important part in pro- moting pcace among the nalio1s. As to that. they may as well be given the opportunity to show what they can do. They could hardly do much worse than the many other agencies which have tackled the problem.

The social and intellectual upheavals caused by the first war only hastened I process WIIl('Il had. in fact. already hcszun.

In Quebec and New Brunswick the government improv- ed its position slightly while in Saskatchewan the party on the Speaker's right lost a few seals.

That. second phase has taken I long time to complete. Egyptian sovereignty. proclaimed in princi- tile in 1922. became absolute in 1936. when the last vestiges of British control disappeared. Now the last British troops have left last base an Egyptian soil. Egyptians feel that the time was foo long. that Britain was too slow in carrying out the policy to which she had. in principle. committed herself. But. looking back over the long series of fl('fZ(lIIElLlflnS since the MacDonald-Zacliil meeting of 1924. one sees. I think. that many of the dlfficultieii were real. There were blunders and follies on both sides. and. on lhr milltai-y side. ltlcre was the tremendous compli- cation of the scvoiid world war. The historian who sees the whole story in perapectiye will he more understanding or the men on both sides than they were. at times. of each other.

On- tario has been solidly in the Pro- gressive Conservative camp ever slnce George Drew upset the Lib- eral government in 1943. AN OLD MAXIM Is it that good times favor the party in power and that voters take no real Interest In politics cxccpt in so far as It affects their own pocket books? Such an ex- planation Is often heard and cart- ainly the party In power strives to impress the public with the Idea that Its politics are directly rea- ponslble for such prosperity II is being enjoyed. We have long been taught to prolong the life of the goose that lays the golden egg and the application of the old max- lm is often urized by politicians who are not disinterested In the preservation of the status quo. But while it would be a mistake to overlook the great importance of economic considerations in pol- llics. there is always the danger oI making too much of them. Since the Liberals swept to power both provinclally and federally Iftcr the great depression of the thirties there have been many changes on the provincial scene. It was not hard times which put the Liberals out of office in Ontario thirteen years ago. and. while farmer dis- content played I part In the CCF victory In Saskatchewan. In 1944. limes were certainly far better than they had been during the rrecedlng decade. Mr. Flemmi'ng's defeat of the long-established Lib- eral regime in 1952 is I strlklng indication that governments don't. always win elections In times of prosperity. OTHER FACTORS Other factors must. be consider- ed and leadership In one of the most important. The Conservative success In New Brunswick In 1951 was in large measure I tribute to the ability and sti-Itgy of the party's leader and certainly the powerful personality of 'l'.C. Doug- las was I mnjor factor In the CCF capture of Snkatchewun In 1044. In Nova Scotln the great and col- orful leader of the Liberals is no longer on the scene while the Con- servative pIrty is fortunate In having I competuit. able and en- ergetic chieftaln who is likely to lead his group to victory. The Manitoba Conservntlves have If their hand one of the ables! men in Canadian public life and their chances of Iucccsl have recent- l,v Idvanced sharply. Thus. Ilthough the voters may appear to be habit-bound or con- cerned only with their own prol- perlty. this Is not Ilways the case. Governments do chInge.
