Since then the population of the urban areas has jumped by about 20,- 000 making it the 14th in size among the nation's 265 ridings. The history of the riding goes back to 1903 when it was estab- lished as a division of Ontario South. In 1924 it was constitut- ed under its present name.

Dr. Vipond, the Liberal candidate polled 10,848 votes, John Brady, the CCF condidate, polled 8,023 and Helge Neilson, who ran as an independent, polled 248. W. H. MOORE SUCCESSES It is interesting to note that William H. Moore, a former chairman of the tariff board, won the seat for the Liberal Party in the 1930, 1935 and 1940 elections. On the first oc- cason he had a maporty of 470. In the second ballot he had a majority of 2,928 and on the last occasiou he contested the riding had a majority of 4,262. The late William E. N.

Mr. Fleming recalled that the Liberals, before the campaign started, had advocated lowering the exchange rate from its pre- mium and fixing it. The Lib- erals said later they thought the dollar should be at par with U.S. currency. The devalued dollar means more and richer markets aoroad for Canadian goods, the government maintained: It also meant a big boost to the Cana- dian tourist industry. a greater earner of U.S. dollars than wheat. But the opposition parties looked on the other side of the coin. Devaluation, they all said, would mean higher prices for Canadians on their domestic purchases. Unemployment was the old- est issue of the campaign but, unlike many others which cropped up for short-lived pe- riods and then disappeared, it continued strong to the end. Almost on the even of the big vote, the government reported that unemployment had dropped by 149,000 from April to May. The 379,00" 's!r° -* mid-May, it said, represented 5.1 per cent of the labor torc.-- lowest percentage for May since 1957 The report came out at a time when the government was say- ing the unemployment problem would be licked by this sum- mer.
