Political ens wf by parties say her vote-winning charms are formidable, You have to see her in action to understand why. At a political rally in an over- heated hall, or on a chilly rail- station platform, she is us a few steps behind Mr, Diefendaker, shaking hands with people he may have missed in his progress.
