Highway Fire Attendance Is Optional If you are planning to move furniture along a provincial highway in your own or a rented truck on which the con- tents are not insured (especial- ly against fire), remember the words of Ontario Fire Marshal M. §. Hurst: "No provincial law requires highway fire protection..A muni- cipality provides fire protection 'as it so desires'." His. comment came Monday load of furniture in a truck fire Sunday on Highway 401 near Courtice, ' The fire marshal explained that fire legislation is permis- sive, "Quality and quantity of fire protection are up to the municipality," he said. He said it is not unusual for a municipality to have a restric- tive firé law on-its books, as does Bowmanville.

On television one can lrelax and be pin-vointed to the scenes of importance by well- informed commentators who have at their command an im- mense communication network. On the scene you must fend, for yourself amid a torrent of events and sights, and try to grasp their essential importance. Along the boardwalk there is always something to see. Adlai Stevenson walks by at midnight on the way to his hote] escorted by four large policemen and fol- lowed by a large adoring crowd. Flash bulbs blink in the night, {bursts of applause greet him jevery few feet as he is recog- Inized by the milling groups jalong the way.

The inside of the building was a sea of activity" as campaign material was bought wholesale and ship- ped out to the hinterlands of American politics. ~ What was happening here was that the oldest, most powerful, and most efficient democratic party in the world was going into action. Here the great party which has dominated American politics since 1932 was beginning to roll. The word was going out to the Democratic Party headquar- ters from the great urban centres of the east, sprawling out from New York, with its city bosses, to the rural areas of the Mid-West and the Rockies and to the golden land of Cali- fornia with its promise of sweeping majorities, and to the uncertain south, brooding in its sad place in the evolution of American life. Soon the machine which has won six out of the last eight presidential elections would be running smoothly. BOAST OF EXPENDITURES Confident officials boasted that the party will spend $20 million dollars and will use armies of volunteer workers to elect Lyndon Johnson for an- other term as president. If there is any fear of Goldwater in their ranks it was not easily discernible as they predicted overwhelming majorities rang- ing from four to 20 million votes in November, Away from the Hall all acti- vity is centered around the various hotels, Old Edwardian buildings "that were fashionable before the economic crash of 1929, suddenly came alive again. Across the steets great lines of wires connected various TV hook-ups in the hotel lobbies. Outside every hotel of the slight- est importance stood a caravan of trucks from the mighty TV networks. Inside swarms of newsmen gossiped with guests and casual visitors. Outside, the streets around the hall were swarming with people looking for excitement. At an intersection a drunken visitor from Ohio,-perhaps a delegate, careers through a red light, A policemen blows frantically and vainly on his. whistle until, loosing his temper, he hurls his night-stick through the air where it lands with admirable accur- acy upon the roof of the speed- ing car some 50 feet away.

From the Young Democrat's headquarters beside the hall blared the sounds of "Happy Days Are Here Again," and the inevitable' "Hello Lyndon" green army helicopter. Immedi- ately pandemonium broke loose as the crowd stampeded in the direction of the landing area behind a neighboring building, only to be hurled back by a human barricade of State Troop- ers. Radios squawked idioticall sirens screached, the crowd cheered, and bits of torn paper rode a cloud of dust sent up over the rooftop as the heli- copter landed. Then we were through the gates and racing for our seats . . . all 30,000 of us.

The podium area was a small village of blue altars and steeples of varying sizes for politicians, and press. A gigantic three-storey tower. housed a variety of TV cameras and spotlights which picked out the celebrities and various demonstrations. From their glass booths, the three pairs of commentators for the three big TV networks stared down professionally at the chaos. On that~ night there was a strong confusion of emotion. At once it was to be John F. Ken- nédy Night and Lyndon Baines Johnson Night, and it was diffi- cult to see how the two could meet. THOUSANDS dy When Robert Kennedy appear- ed on the podium, dwarfed by the scene around him, the crowd were on their feet cheering and clapping him for 12 minutes. The ladies and men crying in the hall, and there were thou- sands of them, were desper- ately. trying to hold on to a wonderful, brief, dream they had alj loved, but which they knew they had to lose. For the first and only time of the con- vention, and perhaps of any convention, the hall fell into a Okays Changes In Grade 13 TORONTO (CP) -- Educa- sald M day is tae cope s on changes in the Grade 18 course which will an extra jo more teaching in The changes, announced ear-' lier this month by M.

PARLIAMENT AT AGLANCE dead silence during the 'film of Kennedy's Presidency. When the lights came on, the scene was set for Johnson, and the convention was brought back to reality. Johnson, as seen making his speech, and later closer, out on .the balcony during his birthday celebration was an impressive figure. Looking all of his. six-foot four inches, he left no doubt in anyone's mind that he was now in control of the party, His gigantic hands flashed in the spotlight as he pounded away on the theme of unity, prosperity and peace and justice for all. Outside, as the fireworks sig- nified the beginning of what may perhaps be called the John- sonian Era, the party was be- hind him all the way. The con- vention was over, and the cam- paign lay ahead, PARTY COALITION What had happened was that a new man had t over the leadership of th emocratic Party and a historic shift was taking place. Since 1924, the Democratic Party has ,existed as a freak among political orga- nizations, made up from a coalition between northern Lib- erals and southern Conserva- tives. Throughout all the years of Roosevelt, Truman, Steven- son and Kennedy the party re- mained split and divided amongst itself because of this unnaturalness. But with the growing urbanization of America, the Democratic Party sought its inspiration and more and more its strength from the north, By Kennedy's election on 1960, the solid base of support for the Democrats had shifted from the south to the north. It has be- come a liberal party that has had to search new support in the face of a southern desertion.
