In the case of th federal parliament, the single-vote- method has done nothing to discourage assorted groups from aspiring to. representation. Since they do exist ami since they will put candidates in the field as far as they are financially and morally able, the rational attitude would be to adopt the system which to a great extent would eliminate the evil of minority representation.

If that means the true voice of the people is being heard in the direction of our affairs, then we will take vanilla. It is probable that, even if the alternative system were adopted federally, the composition of the national parliament would not be greatly different from that decided by the present method. Although many strange and unexpected developments are precipitated by the transfer of ballots, the story of the final outcome begins to unfold with the very first counting. The trends assert themselves almost immediately as they do under the sifl$e .county and it is only, the details, which must aSEait refinement. .Rut these details, which now receive no adjustment in our federal voting, are of tremendous importance. Pieced together, they mean that the vanning party is composed as nearly as possible of representatives who have the greatest approval of the voters. As it is now, a relatively unpopular man can ride to victory because two opponents who' are better liked have killed each other off. The virtue of alternative voting is not so much that it assures a party representation in proportion to its popular appeal in a rough way, the present method does this, too but that it acts as a selective screening for membership of that party. The only losers under the alternative system are the radio listeners on election night. They must go to bed without a decision being reached. It is a bit of a let-down, but far better than the hangover of unfair representation. . ing their names ana men- pic- (j, jn no other general elec- palgns than has Mr. Drew. He Vessels!
