Alternative Vote

The policy declaration and resolutions of the Canadian Chamber of Commerce are: very much what might be expected of that ()l'f.((llllY.2lll(lll of hard wtirkiiig, responsiblei and community-minded businessmen. They cover a wide range of subject matter and in- each case the stand taken is characterized by prudence and a desire that government should not assume an undue portion of the iiatioiial life.

The declaration of policy on voting pi'o- '.-editres, however, includes a doubtful pro-, position. The Chamber notes a growing tendency to place in Parliament candidates that have been elected by a minority ofi lli-I.-e votinj.:. and if ilie tendency continues the result may well be that the wishes of the in.'ijoi'ity of voters will go unrecoguiz-I Hi.

"The ('liatuI;cr believes that the method in-st suited to bring about the most accept-,7 able candidates is the Single Alternativel Vote. This method of voting." so runs the' declaration, ”provides for the indication of preference on the ballot paper (first, sec-, ond, third, etc.) and for the distribution ofl votes among other candidates until one candidate has an absolute majority of the; votes cast." '

The trouble with this system, in addi- tion to its awkwardness, is that it does not select the candidate for whom a majority; would vote. What it does is reject those candidates to whom there is substantial ob- . jeetion and permit the election of those who l have the fewest enemies. The effect is to bring about the election of mediocre candi-I dates and in the long run to have mediocre ' government.

Tensions In The Far East

European Governments which profess tol be fearful lest ftrigger-happy' Americans touch off a small shooting war that will lead to a major conflagration, should be comforted by decisions recently taken in Washington with respect to Quemoy, Tach- en and other Nationalist-held islands just off the Chinese coast.

At a recent meeting of US Joint Chiefsl of Staff, three out of four members, it is reported, favored giving Chiang Kai-shek's. Nationalists permission to hit back at thcl Chinese mainland if the offshore islands near the coast were attacked. This posi- tion was opposed by General Ridgeway on the very proper ground that. the United States should not again become committed to a course of action in Asia the outcome of which might lead to World War III.

Washington, it will be recalled, is com- mitted to the defence of'Nationalist-held Formosa by the US Navy. The decision to restrain Chiang Kai-shek's forces in the event that the strategically unimportant coastal islands are attacked by the Chinese Reds will undoubtedly do much to ease tensions in the Far East. That Peking, if, and when the decision is taken to seizel Quemoy and the neighboring islands, will! seek to extract the utmost propaganda valuel from such a fvictory', must be considercdl as a calculated risk which both President? Iiisciiliower and General Ridgeway deeml sulirirdinatc to the broader strategic issues; at stake.

commonwealth conference

The Commonwealth conference in Lon- don next January will be the first time the! Prime Ministers of the Commonwealth coun-' tries have got together since the crisis of the Indo-China war, since the Manila part was devised, and since Mr. Nehru made his important visit to China. Far Eastern af- fairs will, therefore, bulk largely on agenda. Indeed, according to a London correspondent of the Winnipeg Free Press, the conference is regarded as a possible prelude to an attempt to persuade the Uni-

the conference a crowded agenda.

One of the most important issues it will have to face is how far the Commonwealth countries are to trust the note of cordiality ' which is being struck by the Soviet lead-I So far the British reaction has been one of cautious optimism. Though the Rus- sians are directing at the West a propa- ganda campaign of great intensity and great skill, with football and athletics teams, bal- lerinas, musicians and artists, flowing in on every aircraft from the East, there is no sign of this affecting the basis of British policy.

-The Potato Industry

A new potato body, if not heavenly body, is apparently about to rise in 'Prince Edward Island, its appearance heralded by one of the largest delegations ever to wait upon the Government. No fewer than 76f potato growers from almost every section of the Province presented a brief Thursday which, among other things, states that they are prepared to act as a committee to form a potato produce-rs' organization.

Such an organization would presumably be a member of the Prince Edward Is- land Federation of Agriculture, much as the various organizations of breeders are niembc-rs. It would be expected to assume responsibility for voicing the opinion of potato growers and for looking after their interests generally as well as the particular chore mentioned in the brief, the nomin- ation of'producer members to the Potato Marketing Board.

Until now the Federation of Agriculture has acted as a potato produccrs' organiz- ation, mainly because of the dominant im- portanee of the potato industry to the Is- land farmer. A specialized organization of would reduce the work of the Federation, and consequently its im- portance, although it would continue to include the potato industry in its field of interest.

The fact that lobsters accounted for S51,- .'l38,281 out of a total landed value of our fisheries of 552,597,693 in the first ten months of 1954 points up the frequent warnings that the luxury seafood occupies too important a place in Prince Edward Is- land fisheries. Fortunately the develop- ment of a dragger fleet is changing that emphasis and may be expected to change it further.
