ORILLIA (CP)-Historian F. K Underhlll said Sunday night Can ads politically has become an old man's country. He told the 25th Couchichlng Conference at nearby Geneva Park there are too many old men P ” politicians. This. he said; oppresses the country's politics with a sense of futility and frustration. ' Mr. Underhill. formerly I pro- fessor of history at the university of Toronto, now is curator of Lau- sier House. Ottawa. He spoke on the second day of the week-long conference. jointly sponsored by the CBC and the Canadian Instit- ute on Public Affairs. The text of his address was released to the press ii advance. He comparedr the ages of to- day's- top political figures with those of a near-century ago. at the time of Confederation and during the winning of responsible government. John A. MacDonald was less than 50 in 1864 and his chief col- league Georges E. Cartier just over 50. D'Arcy McGee was 39, Charles Tupper 43 and Leonard Tilley 46. All played top roles in the political development of the Dominion. Quipped Mr. Underhill: "Of the outstanding men at that time there was only one great figure who felledto see the op- portunltyof the moment. he was Joseph Howe and what was wrong with Howe in October, 1364, was obviously that he was too old for constructive statesmanshlp; he had reached the advanced age of . rnoN'r BENCHER8 ow ys There Are Too Many Old Men In Canadian Politics Tuesday Aug- 7 . 1956 and Mrs. Barry Lewis.
