Pearson Elected in Canada Liberal Leader Nominates Pearson
Lester B. Pearson, former foreign secretary and Nobel Peace Prize recipient, was elected Thursday night to lead Canada's Liberal Party in its bid to regain government. The 60-year-old diplomat defeated former health minister Paul Martin by a 303 to 210 vote at the party's fourth national convention, succeeding Louis St. Laurent who had led since 1948. Pearson, praised as a strong friend and critic of the United States, will become prime minister if the Liberals win.
