Elbe Merrie Excalibur Published by ennde moan Limited 16 Hayfield 8M Barrie Ontario Walla Publisher McPherson Managing Editor wunun row casual Manager MONDAY MAY 1H IAGI RSIm Is Maturity Now Held As Detrimént In Grillia Packet Times Theres new wave of young men in Canadian politics today and undoubted ly there will be many more compara tive youngsters in the House of Com monsafter the June elections The trond is to youth Turner Trudeau Hellyer and the many more young men in the backben ches of the Commons and the prom cial legislatures have given new vigor to Canadian politics and government At time when Canadians seem eager for change voters will be rcsponsrve to the call of any freshfaced young candi dates Youth in government is an asset In order to have our legislative bodies peak for all Canadians itls necessary to have representation from all genera flons of adults Good men should not be penalized for their youthfulness This present trend to youth is not entirely new Sir John Macdonaid was young man when he helped fonn con federation But there have been times when our governments seemed to be completely dominated by men of advanced age ap parentiy out of step with most of the people they served danger in the present trend is thattt seems to be gotng too far Age and maturity and experience new are lbiabilities that an older politicran must ear PolitiCS As the Liberal convention illustrated youth and philosophy of changerare greater voiegetters than age and ex perience Paul Martin the oldest and politically wisest offhe Liberal leader ship candldates it turned out had little chance of winning simply bacaiise of his There will be many cases during the next few weeks at riding conventions in which men will be chosen simply be cause they are young There is talk among Conservatives in our own riding of lmcoe Noi1li of choosing younger man than Dr Rynard to carry the Tory banner These people would sacrifice Dr Rynards pro ven Rolltleal knowledge and service for yout and inexperience Dr Rynard finds his years of service rather than an asset have become liability In the rush for youth in politics it must not be forgotten that years are great educator Those men in their 805 705 and 80s have experience that no young man can match Their maturity stabilizing influence and yet as some have proven they can still cope with the awrngers The cry for youth in politics is led by the new generation of young voters who are taking more active part in politics than any young generation before It is right that they ould But the loss of older men in politics is high price to pay for the active participation of the young DOWN MEMORY lANE BARRIES CENTENNIAL YEAR Barrie Examiner May 13 1953 Color fui rural music festival at Barrie Arena directed by

sought some times takes the civil service staff of the minister concerned days or even weeks Yet it was inexcusable and shocking that one question asked on Maylo 1961 remained unanswered whenParllament was dissolved on April 23 1568 Some of the most active oppo sitlon MPs saw many of their serious questions thus did un answered on the Order Paper For example Heath Macquarrla PEll had

again when talking about OMSIP he reported in answer to question that spot check was kept on doctors billings to ensure that there wasnt abusfl of the plan report of the first item in one paper
