The Statesmnan bas commented an the need off a change on several occasions. The foliowing fiîg- tires dealîng witb the resuits of ibat election art -very enligbîening in tbis regard: Votes Members Conservative 1.016,974 41 Liberal 1.507,679 168 C. C. F. 299,359 8 Reconstruction 334.411 1 Social Credît iOO.160 17 Others 66,848 10 Prom tbese figures it will be seen that tbe Liber- ais sent ta Parliamnent one member for every 8,900 votes cast for that party, wbile the Conservatîves on]y elected a member for every 24.800 votes palled for candidates of Ibeir party. On the other band. in Toronto and the Yorks, eleven Conservatives were eiected altbougb the vote of that party in this area was 151,953. wbiie the vote againsît th Party was 248,792 in the samne area. The LiberaLs wth a vote of 117.541, elected only four members. while the C. C. F. with 58.484 votes and the Re- constructionists with 57.099 votes did not elect a single mensber. Analyzrng the returns further, we find that the Social Credit party polled 100,160 votes and elected 17 members, wbile the C. C. F. polled 299,359 votes and onIy elected eighl members. The RLeconstruct- Ion Party PoUed 334,411 votes and elected but one ineniber. In other words, it required 334,411 votes to elect one Reconstructionist, wbile seventeen Social Credit members were elected on an average vote of 5,890. Looking at the ttals. we discover that the Liberals elected 168 mnembers writh a vote of 1,507,679. while the ather parties returned only 77 znembers with a total vote of 1.817.752. Commenting an this situation. the Toronto Star.
