An articulate Toronto advertising man, Camp blames the party's two straight losses in national elections on Diefenbaker's failure to appeal to the urban areas, to the Catholic French of Quebec, and to Canada's youth.

Given to bow ties and dark glasses, Praphas bridles when his extensive business dealings are mentioned. Since he controls both army and police forces, gossips whisper that Praphas (pronounced Pra-pat) could conceivably oust Thanom. But that would likely produce an ugly family quarrel: Praphas' daughter is married to Thanom's son, and in fact the parents are close friends...
