.20 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Wednesdey, Decomber 2, 1964 Senator Recaps Political By NELSON OTTAWA (CP)--'Congratula- tions, senator." So began an hour-long inter- view Tuesday with Senator Jean-Francois Pouliot (L--Que- Life He had close among Conservative MPs -- T. L. 'ommy) Church and John R. don Graydon-of Brampton, Ont., now all dead. He counted for- mer Conservative prime minis- ters Arthur Meighen and R. B. bec) on his 40th gonivemers of Bennett as friends, too, but continuous service in the Wament of Canada--31 years as an MP, nine as a senator. Surrounded by his scrapbooks and photographic mementoes of even more than one life-time of politics, known as the MP for Temis- couata--said he has always re- elgg friendship as above pol- ies. "For that reason, I am not a separatist. When you have lived under the same. roof for so many years with someone, even though you have your differ- ences, you create a good friend- ship that cannot be broken." ELECTED IN 1924 When he was first elected to fought them bitterly on politi- cal issues. He also fought his own party. He crossed the floor to sit as an independent in opposition to the Mackenzie King Liberal gov- the senator -- long ernment on the conscription is- sue in 1944, but the following year Mr. King took the initia- tive in going to Riviere-du-Loup to speak on his behalf in the general election of 1945. ELECTED BAR HEAD Recently he was elected hon- orary president of the Rural Bar of Quebee by acclamation, and counts it among his treas- ures. He now is writing his memoirs and is looking for a ti- tle to describe his '40 years of independent thinking and action the Commons Dec, 1, 1924, agedlin politics." %, he became the fourth gen- eration in his family to serve Parliament or its predecessor, "I owe my good health to my wife, and my survival to hard work and keeping my mind the Legislative Assembly of|pusy." Lower Canada (Québec), His great - grandfather, Louis Ber- trand, was a member of the pre - Confederation Parliament Of Quebec and once voted against Confederation. In politics, Senator Pouliot said he had always fought for truth, justice and fairness. "It4s very difficult to make truth shine in any country. That is why I have engaged in 0 research, too. Everyone talks about social security, but no one thinks about legal secu- rity and they are unwilling to resort to fundamentals which should be the basis of any or- ganized society." As a law researcher--after engaging in the general prac- tice of law for 10 year: ar tor Pouliot is the author of sev- eral precedent - setting legal tomes on Quebec municipal law and the law of management of church properties. It is these accomplishments to which he refers with profes- sional pride, But the puckish- ness that marked his years as an MP and which still shines through in some of his senator- fal work never escapes him. TRIES SMOOTH WAY "I try the smooth way first, and if I do not succeed, I speak louder, They think I am angry, but they do not realize that at times I am only indignant. . . . "A man with a long face will never win an election, As Cic- ero said, a joke will win the of a judge more easily than 8 lengthy argument." Asa man, Senator Po Hot said he always practised "co-operative liberalism." "I always gave the benefit of/said Mayor Joseph His record of 40 years in con- tinuous service in the federal Parliament is believed sur- passed only by Senator. C. G. (Chubby) Power, who first en- tered the Commons in 1917 and went to the Senate in 1955. Tilbury Gets Drinking Water TILBURY, Ont. (CP)--This town of 3,200 had drinking wa- ter without restrictions es- day, for the first time in two weeks, Residents, who were left with- out water Nov. 18 when sand clogged a pipeline from Lake St. Clair, were serviced for sev- eral days from a marsh near the lake. The water was pumped into the line for wash- ing and sanitary facilities, but p> Baend supplies came mainly from tanker trucks. A channel system, planned as a temporary solution until the pipeline could be repaired, was put into use last Friday. But Dr. Ian Cunningham, medical health officer, insisted that wa- ter was to be boiled before drinking. The restriction was lifted Tuesday. The 2,000-foot channel nine feet deep into Lake St, Clair supplies water to a coffer dam, constructed near the plugged section of the town's water in- take pipe. The lake source is about five miles north of Tilbury and 30 miles east of Windsor. "We've got more water than we've had in the past 10 years," oung, the doubt to my party when my|"and better. pressure than ever conscience allowed me to do so. | before." But in fact, I am a radical," One of his earliest sorties into -- cal campaigning was in FIGHT FROM AIR Ontario has made use of air- when he tried to speak on/pianes in forest fire fighting the same platform as Joseph- Edouard Caron, Quebec minis- ter of agriculture, who wanted since 1921, to avoid him. Finally he got the crowd's attention and said a minister is merely a servant of the people. Therefore, he could say to the minister, 'bring me my rubbers."* MASON TOOK OFF HAT Mr. Caron protested it was only the youths who supported young Pouliot. An elderly stone- mason in the crowd took off his hat and pointing to his bald head said, 'look at me ard see if it is only the young." In his first election campaign, a friend persuaded the Con- servatives not to oppose him because the byelection contest was sure to be followed by a general! election within a year. "All the die-hard Tories voted for me because they were sure it was only for one year. That was 40 years ago."
