* * * * The debate that followed the King's

Speech was notable if only for the speech of the mover of the Address, Mr. Kcr Lindsay, a Conservative, still under thirty, and a member of Lord Eust ace Percy's group of young men, who have made admirable efforts in this Parliament to keep the Government faithful to a National as opposed to a purely Tory mandate. Mr. Lindsay achieved that most difficult task for a young man on a great occasion of being dignified without being pompous, and humorous without being facetious, and at the same time managed to say something that was worth while. He spoke for the younger men, who, as he said, " are sometimes more closely in touch with the post-War electorate," and stressed the need for a great measure of national planning.
