CCORDING to the Canadian Commentator, there ‘are persistent rumors that Myr, Diefenbaker plans, as a gencrous gesture, to recommend that Mr. St. Laurent should be appointed as Gdvernor Gener- al of Canada when he retires from active political life, Ps “1 hope thése rumors are false,” ‘gays editor Marcus Long. “I bow'to no one th my admiration for Mr. St. Laurent. “I believe that he, more than any other Canadian, has the needed qualifications forsthe highest office in the land.

Already we have the example of the Senate which has become primarily a haven where loyal party supporters can rest in fiftancial comfort and quiet distinction. “ It has been suggested that Mr. Diefenbaker snigeht make such a move aS a means of pleasing voters in Quebec. The thought behind this is that without French Canadian support, the Conservative edyernment will always have difficulty in mustering sufficient strength to run an efficient government. % Being the man he is, however, itis difficult to bekieve that Mr. Diefenbaker would stoop to using + .
