Mrs. Michael Lisko, 380 Gibb St.: 'I've only been in Oshawa about a year and from what I've comfort. Lots of good shop- ping facilities and things like that. I personally think that Oshawa is one of the better places to live." Ed Jeffs, 72 William: "One thing that I would like to see, is open meetings. I am definitely not in favor of these cloak and dagger affairs. We put these people there and they have no right to exclude us from our own business, I don't think this is very satisfac- tory." Betty Crouter, 280 QUEBEC (CP)--The provih- cial Liberal party, still reeling from serious intra-party splits disclosed last weekend, suffered another body blow shortly be- fore a meeting of the party. caucus scheduled for today in Quebec City. Weekend personality and po- litical clashes between former Liberal cabinet ministers st the annual meeting of Quebec Young Liberal Federation in Drummondville, Que, were said Monday by forther provin- cial secretary Bona Arsenault to be not only a surface phe- nomenon but the visible signs of a deep ideological split in the party. Mr. Arsenault said: "There are two main groups within the provincial Liberal party--the moderates, who are the overwhelming majority and constitute the left - of - centre group, and the leftist extrem- ists, who are a noisy minority. The former provincial secre- |tary continued in a prepared statement: "One group is entirely loyal collective leadership and de- mocratization,"' Mr, Arsenault charged that this latter group, which he identified as being from Mont- real, was trying to turn the Lib- erals into a_ socialist party which they would control by making a "'political prisoner" of leader Jean Lesage. REFERS TO KIERANS He apparently was referring to a group of former cabinet ministers from Montreal, headed by one-time revenue and health minister Eric Kier- ans, This group wants to set up a system of 'collective leader- ship' under which decisions af- fecting party strategy and ide- ology would not be left in Mr. Lesage's hands alone but would be the responsibility of a seven- man leadership committee on which the former premier would sit. 3 At the next Liberal federation meeting, Mr. Kierans and two running mates are to try for the top three executive posts. | Mr. Kierans is running un- Extremists Cause Rift In Quebec Liberal Party a tone of moderation by saying the party needed '"'discipline," "Our acts of today are in dan- ger of becoming acts of self- destruction," he said, " ECHOES PLEA Pierre Laporte, addressing a Monday meeting of the Lib- erals' Montreal Reform Club, 2 warned aeainet atrife among party members.

MEAG TAN ANVANCEN "Such a group now is. trying to make off with the main lev- jers of the Quebec Liberal Fed- eration, so as to make the leader of the provincial party their political prisoner, and most of all the prisoner of their ideas, which are too advanced for the tastes of the people of Quebec"'. "The electorate is. afraid of the Liberals because of the presence within the party of "radical elements which do not hide their ambition of wanting to drag the . . . party farther toward the left," the ex-provin- cial secretary said. Mr, Kierans' group strongly backs such social measures as medicare and Mr. Arsenault said that Quebecers are afraid at a u ha or Shis.
