EIGHTEEN PAGES DIEFENBAKER TO FIGHT TO FINISH TORONTO (CP)--That old cliffhanger, John Diefenbaker, laid his one-Canada case before the Conservative leadership convention Thursday night, but left in doubt whether he would try to remain as leader. At times in an emotional one-hour speech, he seemed to be ready to announce a decision to quit, but drew back each time. The crowd responded on cue with generous applause, waiting for the moment when Mr. Dief- enbaker would state his inten- tions. But he never did. Instead he lived up to his reputation of doing the unexpected, Platform officials including E. A. Good- man, convention chairman, fidgeted while the leader talked. ATTACKS POLICY In his speech, he attacked the convention approval of a "deux-nations" policy, which Mr. Diefenbaker said means two nations, one English and one French.

And while the walkout by some 160,000 members of the auto-workers union has halted Ford operations in 25 states, 1968 model cars rolled off assembly lines at General Motors and Chrysler.

Mr. "Sam" as he is affection- ately known, was as alert as ever when a Times' reporter-photographer team paid him a visit, "I'm just going to have a quiet day with my immediate family only," said the chairman of GM of Canada.

He is chairman of a Lake Erie area hunt club and enjoys looking down a rifle shaft at pheasants. "I feel all right. I wouldn't want to climb a lot of stairs or anything like that. But I feel all right." Mr. Sam has just one complaint. He used to be a heavy cigar smoker, but the doctors have cut him down to one a day--plus 'three, four or five pipes a day," he said as he struck another match to light a pipe. --Oshawa Times Photo By Bruce Jones duction for lengthy periods--the 119-day strike against GM in| It took the leader more than| : 1945-46 and the 100-day stopp-|maif an hour to make his way/|stage_ continuous music.
