thinks she will come out into a World
which must test 'her credulity. It
thinks that she will Ana- the people
grumbling and worries:. who have ev-
erything Audrey must have longed,, for
in twenty-three years, that she will
see men and *omen wearing good
clothes and eating good food, that she
will be puzzled "to read about famine
in 'Europe, the destructions of war and
the bitterness and the apparent frus-
trations of human beings. For a while
at any rate life will be wonderful and
grand, But the Editor thinks that,
because human- beings are like that,
she too will begin to forget: "The ic-

sup will be too hot and walking will
be a bore and freedom an accepted
fact. The leaves on the trees will be

Rep By•Pop
Justice Minister Louis St. Laurent
made a distinct impression on the
House of Commons as he introduced
and explained a measure that will in-
crease its memberyhip from 245 to
255, and will make a clean break
from the out-moded method of de-
termining representation on the basis
sof Quebec's population.
Because Canada's population is
steadily- shifting and growing, another
redistribution of . the -seats- in the
House of Commons has become nec-
esary,, and the government has re-
commended to parliament . that an
amendment be.• made to the. British
North America Act which would pro-
vide a better -balanced representation
for `all. Canada than is possible as the
Act now stands:
Tnder the new` scheme—after allow -
for a constant representation of
one rnember for the Yukon and North-
west Territories and four to Prince
Edward Island—the total population
of the other eight provinces will be
divided by 250, 'giving a- quotient of
45,578.
Each province's representation
would then be set by dividing thein,
ividual provincial population by the
uotient, -with the- following result—
resent membership.in.brackets: P-
I., 4 (4); Nova •Scotia„.13..(12);
ew Brunswick, 10 (10) ; Quebec, 73.
65) ; Ontario, 83 (82);,, Manitoba, 16
17): Saskatchewan, 20 (21); Alberta
7' .(17); British Columbia, 18 (16);
ukon and N.W.T., 1 (1).
If the redistribution were ^ carried
tit under 'the Act -as. it now stands,
anitoba would lose three seats and
askatchewan would lose four. '
Pro, or Con?
The parliamentary defeat of the
racken amendment — which would
ave punctured the price ceiling on
rm products and knocked the price
oor out from under them—brought
ree facts more sharply into focus.
Fact one: Publib opinion is solidly
hind the government in its struggle

Fact two: Canadian producers of
f 'i products agree, with the goverin-
s- nt's aim to achieve stabilized pric-
es 'for those , farm products over a
period.• of years, instead of a short
term boom --then a long term bust..
• Fact three: Obvious confusion was
c_-reated within the Progressive Con-
servative 'ranks by Mr: - Bracken's
amendment. With some ' "Progres-
sives,' pleading for retention of price
control and some "Conservatives"
eager to scuttle the structure, the
split became crystal clear when the
amendment was put to the vete in
the Mouse of Commons,. Only 23 out
• of the 67 Progressive-Conservativ°e
members supported Mtn Bracken,. Ev-
en the Hon. W. Earl Rowe, who had
boasted a few days earlier that the
Conservatives were the farmers' par-
ty, was absent when •the vote was.
taken.
