CCF chief is. J. Coldwell, returned to Ottawa a week ago after making some 50 gpcecllel from Prince Edward Is- land to Vancouver island since septembcr. In an interview he said there is no doubt Canada faces a bad sit- uation in the marketing of this yen;-'n bumper farm production. Ila edicted it would be one of the biggest issues 'of the session and said the CCF will raise it at the first opportunity. probably during the session - opening throne speech debate.

Alberta To Revert To Simpler Voti By PHIL ADLER Canadian Press Staff Writer EDMONTON (CP) - Alberta's umplicated system of voting in srovincial elections will be scrapped when the Election Act is revised. it is reliably reported. Proposals probably will be sub- nitted to the legislature during the 1956 session which opens in Feb- -uary. Alberta is the only province which has three different voting systems. A combination of propor- tional representation and the single n-ansferable vote system is umd a provincial elections while Al- bertans voting in federal elections sse the simple ballot. CHANGED IN MANITOBA informants say Alberta will fol- low Manitoba and adopt the simple bsllot- Official feeling is that a committee will be set up to split the only "iple-member ridings- Edmonton and Calgary. Manitoba ended proportional sep- resentation and the Alternative vote during the 1055 session of the legislature and set up a committee to investigate redistribution of multiple-member constituencies. Political sources agree that in the June 29 provincial general election Liberal. Progressive Con- servative and CCF voters distrib- uted their alternative choices among the opposition parties-oand withheld them from Social Credit, which thus lost ground when sec- ond, third or further counts were necessary. in the election. the Liberal party increased its strength to is mem- bers compa at with four at disso- iulon, the gains coming mainly at the expense of Premier Manning's government which went back for sixth consecutive term but lost 14 seats. BLAME BALLOT Thirteen Social Credit losses were registered in single-member rural constituencies which used the transferable ballot. also known as the alternative vote. when voters rate candidates in order of preference-1, 2. 8 and so on. Under the system. a candidate must have a majority of votes cast to be elected on first count. If more than one count is needed the low man is dropped and his ballots are distributed among oth- an on a second-choice basis. Opposition parties urged voters to give social Credit candidates low ratings and in some constitu- encies combined to. support inde- pendent candidates mnning against lovarnment supporters. from the general elec- tion show that social Credit would have retained another four seats had the simple ballot system been used-where the candidate who re- ng System foot-long ballot containing 8 names. Seven were elected. In Calgary, there were 23 candidates for six seats. The long ballots. which had the appearance of a laundry list, stumped many voters. In Edmon- ton, 6,248 ballots were rejected. in Calgary. 2.166-accounting for just about onethird of the total spoiled ballots in the province. Counting was a physical problem. It took about two days of around- the-clock work to complete the tabulation. GROWING DIFI-'I(.'ULTIEil Prospects for improvement un- der the present system seem re- mote. Both cities are expanding; so is the population. More voters and more candidates would make the situation critical. A plea for a change was voiced by J. Percy Page. Progressive Conservative House rleader. who would like to see Edmonton's rep- resentation increased to nine from seven and at the same time di- vided into three divisions along the lines of the federal constitu- cncies. This, he told a special session of the legislature which followed the election, would give the elector- ate a better chance to know its representatives. Premier Manning. at the same session. emphasizedthe difference of Alberta's voting systems while detailing the popular-vote figures for other provincial gov ants. The Social Credit party obtained 46.4 per cent of the popular vote in June. I drop of almost 10 per cent from the 1952 general elec- tion. Mr. Manning said the vote in- creased 80.000 over the 1952 elec- tion and the increase in the Oppo- sition's share came largely from this figure. However, 10,000 more votes were cast for Social Credit, he said. introduced by the United Farm- ers government, proportional rop- resentation has been used in Ed- monton and Calgary since lili- Under this system. a candidate must reach a fixed quota based on the number of seats at stake is the riding and the total vote be- fore being elected.
