Canadian
Bankers'
Election
Forecast
"The
Financial
Post"
of
Toronto,
the
leading
financial
paper
of
Canada
Independent
In
politics
In
its
issue
of
June
26th
publishes
the
first
bank
forecast
of
the
results
of
the
coming
election.
Thc
forecasts
by
constituencies
were
made
for
the
Post
by
the
managers
of
approximately
4,000
branch
banks
ln
every
part
of
Canada.
It
was
felt
that
this
was
the
most
Independent
forecast
which
could
be
obtained.
Bankers
were
asked
to
give
their
opinions
without
regard
to
how
they
might
themselves
be
voting.
The
result
of
this
gives
the
Liberals
110
seats
ln
the
New
House
as
against
02
to
the
Conservatives.
The
Ottawa
correspondent
of
"The
Financial
Post"
has
also
discussed
the
probable
outcome
with
many
high
officials
of
both
Conservative
and
Liberal
organization
at
Ottawa
and
the
most
the
Conservatives
hopo
to
have
Is
122
seats
which
would
not
be
sufficient
to
control
the
House,
whereas
the
Liberals
claim
they
will
have
134
seats
making
a
gain
of
11.
All
ot
which
merely
goes
to
show
that
public
sentiment
in
Canada
favors
the
return
to
power
of
the
M-ckenzle
King
Government.
In

Mr;3!elghen

a'nd'it
was1
felt
by
many
ln

that
he
would
be
maintained
ln

office,
and
this
feeling
undoubtedly
had
much
to
do
with
Mr.

election.
The
chances
are
now
