@ "Too, Many

| CANADA isnow going | throug n our clumsy, expensive
and: wasteful } process of compiling. the voter's’
for the forthcoming federal election:

This is one field in which we
are far behind: many of the
European - countries, including
Britain,. where ’ ‘they .. keep . the
lists -up to date. at all times.

We.briefly ‘tried out that: Brit-
ish system - ‘back in’ the early 30s,
but our technique was {o0' col-
plicated and ‘cumbersome, and
so we soon. went ‘back to-a inod=|
ification. of’ the: ‘old: method,
which had ‘been’in general use
in Canada since earlier times.

The main difference between
the system now: in’ use and the
old traditional Canadian method
is that we now use pairs of ‘enu-
| merators—-theoretically from: the
two main. rival parties in that
constituency, ‘The theory is
that- when. the enumerators go
in pairs they keep each other
honest: But there are - several
“catches” to that assumption.
One catch is. that the Icading
parties do “not always come up
with their full quota of enumer-
ators. I know of one riding where
the Social Credits ran second to
the Liberals ‘in the 1953 election
and Hence were entitled to sup-
ply ‘200. enumerators © for that
particular. riding. But actually
they. only provided about - 30,
which meant that the Returning
Officer hurriedly had to hire the
extra 110 from among people of
no political affiliation.

“Another weakness in the pres-
ent system of travelling in pairs
is ‘that it-is difficult to prevent
the two enumerators from tra-
velling - singly—that iis, each

taking one side of the street—
y.then- jointly signing the. neces-

sary papers, and finishing. the
job in. just half the time it would
have taken had they done what
"| they .are “obligated to do under
the law..

 

CONSIDER -how .many. times, in
each five year period, we ac-
tually compile a register of the
population:..
The. municipalities: each, make)”
{up. their voters’. lists every year:
The provinces. each make up a

 

  

The: Doidinion overrinient
gover nment’ makes its complete-

fs “tly new- eleétion. voters’ Hist" once

every four years;

But,.in..addition .to. the: above,
-|the: Dominion. Bureau of Statis-
| ties make..a, full. and: complete
census. every ‘five years..: “Thus

public expense, an average: ‘of ‘at
{least one and one half new com-
plete lists every year, These, of
commercial directories, ‘which
-}most cities and towns,and which
are at least as accurate—indeed
generally fat -more ‘accurate—
than most,unrevised voters’ lists,

 

pt JIS MY firm belief that the

could take over the whole job of
keeping up to date lists, not. only
for-the federal elections, biib-for

tions,’ for: all provincial ‘and
municipal bodies; who: requested
such-a service.

Of course. we could ‘not, wipe
out the gross waste on these dup-
licnted and over-lapplng services
unless the provinces and, - the
Dominion were willing | tg:: get
together. ahd) agrec.. on} ‘the

But the advantages. of -having
the work done under the’ atthor-
ityof the Dominion Bureau: of

body is already. obligated: ) take
a complete census. every. five
years, It already. has, on file at
all times,-. the basic "facts and
figures which would form . the

‘that the postmen’ could and
should be given. ithe. “job. ot
notifying the proper authorities],
of deaths, removals--and: other},
changes of address, due.to any
reason whatsoever, -It is neces-
sary for the city postman; or for

know of those- changes: dn-any
event. So it would bea conipar-
atively, simple thing for the post-
men to undertake. the necessary }
work of notifying’ the Returning
Officer.in his riding of anybody's
change of address. ~*~

The postman should jnot: be
asked to do this’ ‘extra work with-
out: extra’ pay. He, should be
generally paid for the : :service.
As 2 matter of fact, such pay-
ment would make a-nice little

supplement, and much ‘deserved:

boost in present pay to. the hard-
