Ofcourse, the question is, when will the general election take place, For my part I'm sticking to October. ped up again this week with greater|- vass prevailing opinion in his riding and report back to another caucus on April 27th, and that a décision would then be made consistent with this nation-wide survey. round of bickering and heckling. Last Tuesday night provided a very good example when the Minister of National Defence ran into a barrage of inter- ruptions while trying to make a reply to the blistering attack on his depart- ment by the Leader of the Opposition. Throughout most of this day the House was treated to a high level of debate on the need for a national health insurance plan, It was started by C.C.F. Leader Coldwell and he was followed by members in all parts of Martin. - 4 Then the Progressive-Conservative Leader Drew started in on the health theme, but suddenly switched to his usual subject of the Dominion-Fro- vincial Conference. For about' 45 minutes he fumed and stormed. The House has come to expect this kind of attack whenever Mr. Drew rises to take part in debate. As soon as he sat down Defence Minister Claxton start- ed to refute some of the charges, My, Drew was up and down like a cat on a hot griddle. Twice he hurried from his seat to go over to his col- league Donald Fleming. All tegether Mr, Claxton was interrupted 23 times. Then Mr. Fleming took over. He was interrupted 39 times, We had to en- dure this most of the half-day sitting. Estimates 'to the amount of $200,- 000,000 was passed. It included $6600 for administration of professional ser- vices for old age pensions. The action of Health Minister Martin in suddenly withdrawing this item caused copsid- erable commotion and resulted in a standing vote of the members present. It was the first time in this Session that this method: of voting had been resorted to, It only took about five minutes and was just as effective as the slow tedious method of standing one by one and having your name called. .

Last week there was an endless | the House, including Health Minister | Nobody else seems to share this view.' All other members gossip and argue' that late June or early July will be' election time. ] The general opinion now seems to. be that it all depends upon the kind of reception given the Prime Minister when he visits as far west as British jtime and practice to be able to present 5 a magnificent manner. | & If Mr. St. Laurent is favourably re- ceived, so the election seekers reason, then an early election is inevitable, If he should not be favourably received the election will likely be deferred so as to give time for political fence- mending. ; Quebec is gradually coming back to the Liberal fold; will the Conservatives break up the coalition out west so as to represent themselves as being a national party? ~ : The Liberal Caucus meeting last week produced the most logical rea- soning so far heard around the corri- dors.
