But DAVID WALKER, SCRAPPY WORKS MINISTER Works Minister Was Prizefighter OTTAWA (CP)--Works Minis- ter David Walker, scrappiest member of the federal cabinet, comes by his knock-'em-down debating style naturally. He was once a boxer. "I find it hard to control my bitter tongue in the House of Commons," he admits. "But I never hold a grudge." His career as a boxer was brief and unmemorable. But his political won-lost record shows only one setback--in 1953 when he was unsuccessful in his first attempt to win a Commons seat in Toronto Rosedale. Since then: it has been an un- appointed works minister Aug. 20, 1959, that he couldn't be a lone fighter in the ring of gov- ernment. "I thought I was going to be {dead in six months," he said, recalling those early days of his ministry. "I used to get up nights and talk to myself. I was working from 7 a.m. to mid- {night and then awakening in the night to thrash out problems." The secret, he discovered, |was to. "get someone you can work with, make sure he is competent and then delegate part of the job." Having done this, the 55-year- interrupted winning streak and|olq Torontonian now even finds he chuckles: | time to "attend the char- "Politics must be agreeing women's ball"--his department with me. I used to box at 140 pounds and mow I weigh 180] stripped." | A fight can be expected al-| most any time the wiry minis-| ter takes the Commons floor. He doesn't back away from a ver- bal exchange and often it is his own words that initiate one. NO QUARTER ASKED For example, in a recent one with Liberal MP Alexis Caron of Hull, such epithets as "blab bermouth," "loud mouth" and "dirty mouth" were tossed back and for embraces hundreds of women who clean government offices each night. KEEP LONG HOURS But he still works from early morning until well after 6 p.m. when the Commons isn't sitting, and much longer when it is. Besides the works department with its 12,000 employees and millions of dollars in govern- ment contracts, Mr. Walker is responsible for Central Mort- gage and Housing Corporation, the government's housing agency, and the National Capi- litics, He decided to "get in- 1 fore skiis at a lodge at Blue Moun tain, near Collingwood, Ont. But he has given up golf. "It/course which touches on took me 15 years to realize I/subjects as making soup, clean- was rotten," » liness and preparing banquets. Dief whom he first met at a innipeg convention in LED STUDENT TORIES That was the year Mr. Walker, founded the Macdonald-Cartier club the first Conservative club at the University of Toronto. He had numerous associations with politicians. Sir John A. Macdonald, Canada's first prime minister, often stayed at the home of his grandfather another David J. Walker and a Conservative campaign man- ager who became a magistrate at Kingston, Ont. : A top debater at the univer- sity, he was once pitted against the then Liberal prime minister Mackenzie King "and he gave me an awful going over." George Howard Ferguson, Conservative premier of On- tario from 1923 to 1930 and a great personal friend, inspired Mr. Walker, an Anglican, to spend three summers in a Que- bec' village, at the home of a Roman Catholic priest to learn| French. He has since sent his daughters, Joyce and Diane, to Quebec to enjoy t same | "wonderful experience LEARNED FROM DEFEAT A TRIUMPHANT PAGE FROM THE GREATEST BOOK OF ALL TIME! ORSON WELLES + asKING SAUL in AA! Of his 1953 election defeat, Mr. Walker now says: | "That was the finest thing) that ever happened to me. It taught me the uncertainty of politics." In the same philosophical vein, he adds: "When my tour of duty is over, I'll be happy to go back to my law practice." Like the, battler he is, he wasn't deterred by setback. He tried again four years) later and won by 5,000 votes in Toronto Rosedale when the Con- servatives, led by Mr. Diefen- baker, broke 22 years of Liberal rule.
