IKE" STARR PLANS TRANS-CANA OTTAWA (Special) -- A cam- paign based on major speech- es_in each of Canada's 10 pro- vinces is being planned by Mi- chael Starr, MP for Ontario, and candidate for the leader- ship of the Conservative Party. Mr. Stgtr-satd Pxiday in an interview that he Was trouble convincing the news media that he is, in fact a serious can- didate. "T am definitely in the race but 1 do J not plan an o fficia kick - off to my campaign for some weeks yet. I think that those who have already started full scale campaigning are star- ting too soon," Mr. Starr said. His difficulty in being accen- ted as a candidate in press and radio reports is based on the fact that he has said he will only run if the present party leader, John Diefenbaker, does not. But at a speech in Tim- mins this past week, Mr. Starr said quite plainly that he does not expect Mr. Diefenbaker will try to succeed himself at the September convention in Toro- onto. He told the Ottawa bureau of The Times that he has not discussed Mr. Diefenbaker's po- sition with him but is quite convinced that at the approp- riate time Mr. Diefenbaker will let it be known he does not plan to run. This will signal' the official start of Mr. Starr's drive At the same time, the Oshawa MP said, he could not wait in- definitely. If Mr. Diefenbaker did not make an announcement by mid-June, he would not be able to wait any longer but would have to make his own plans and conduct his own cam- paign regardless of the present leader's final intentions. Mr. Starr said that his cam- paign will be concentrated in the last two to three months before the convention and will feature one major appearance and speech in each province, Starr supporters in major cit- ies across 'the country will be making plans for large public meetings at- which Mr. Starr hopes to attain maximum news exposure and impact. He is thinking in terms of attracting one, two and three thousand people at each of these meet- ings. But he has no intention of neglecting the individual app- roach to convention delegates, As soon as delegates are ap- pointed in each riding, they will A LEAD recieve a letter from Mr. Starr. Later at the convention, he will make 'a personal approach to each one. In the meantime, Mr. Starr is speeding up the number of appearances he makes at small- er meetings and club speaking engagements across the count- ry. He is not seeking these but all invitations that he recieves are being accepted within limi- tations of time and .place. Observers here believe that the main reason why Mr. Dief- enbaker is withholding any for- mal announcement of his in- tentions is for fear of hurting his own effectiveness .in the House of Commons. At his best during the Com- mons daily question period and in wide ranging debate in the house, Mr. Diefenbaker recog- nizes that an announcement that he was not running and was a mere caretaker leader would lower his influence and pres- tige in the Commons, MICHAEL 8TARR Weather Report Little change anticipated to- day.

Ferrie, a man Garrison tagged as.a prime witness in his contro- versial investigation. He seemed undaunted by evi: dence reported by the coroner, whatsoever of suicide or: mur- der." Moreover, Garrison claimed his staff. solved the assassina- tion case weeks ago. "IT wouldn't say this if we didn't have evidence beyond. the shadow of a doubt," he added, "We know the key individuals, the cities involved and how it was done." That was the first time the word "solved" had been used by Garrison. But he said this did not mean Arrests will be made and con- victions obtained. Arrests might be months away, said Garrison, adding in the exaggerated style he has adopted in daily exchanges with reporters, "it might be 30 years." The investigation was made public when a New Orleans newspaper obtained--from pub- lic records--a list of agents, trips they made, and the money spent in seeking clues, Garrison has said the published reports closed Friday at a luncheon to which 50 New Orleans business- men had_ been _ invited. The group, taking the name Truth and Consequences, promised the district attorney funds which could amount to $50,000 a month or more The private fund will enable Garrison to dispatch investiga- tors to any place he desires without resorting to public mon- jes, thereby disclosing the mo- mentum of the investigation, mines and of depletion allow- ances for mining and petro- Jeum industries.
