But It was believed that a new government will be formed on the same basis as the present one a coalition Including the communists with the social dem ocrats and agrarian parties. The popular democrats (com munist), also known as the dem ocratic union, appeared to have lost six seats, leaving them 45 representatives in the new parlia ment. The social democrats picked up four for a total of 53, and the agrarians gained two for a to tal of 50. Voto Given About 1,430,000 votes of an ap proximate 1,700,000 votes cast had been tabulated. In round figures, these were the results: Social democrats 347,600; agrarians 346, 100; popular democrats (commu nist) 279,000; conservatives 234, 000; Swedish party 126,000; lib erals 63,200; and other minor parties 5,100.
