Notes
Original Toronto Star caption: Leadership candidates rarely offer policies in their 15 minutes at the Gardens. They speak broadly and inspirationally of the kind of leadership they will offer. Mr. Davis talked humanely about his values as a modern Conservative and practical idealist. He would turn from the worship of concrete and steel to meeting human needs; apply to policies the tests of fairness; rightness and respect for individual freedom. He proposed no sweeping changes in policy. It was perhaps too thoughful for the opening [Incomplete]
