Women's News 4 4 Social Events BPWC Speaker Compares British and U. S. Elections Ashland-'Elections, British and American" was the time ly subject of Douglas Legg's talk last Wednesday evening before members of the Busi ness and Professional Wom en's club. With the aid of a black board filled with figures, the Southern Oregon college in structor explained economic and social conditions which influence much of Britain s political system. He said that I unlike the United States, class rather than race con- sciousness has become a prime factor in British government through Its Parliament, and that because of this the Con servatives are gaining power us the working class standard of living rises and old Labor party loyalties are abandoned. Britons never know when an election may be called, the only stipulation being that there must be one every five years. As a result the parly in control calls for elections at its zenith of power with only 3 two-week period for cam paigning. A nominee offers himself to the constituents, not necessar ily those of his own commu nity, but party officials must hive approval. Campaign ex penditures are restricted and once elected the winner can not deviate from the party line. The college teacher, who spoke from a year's study in the British Isles, convinced his .surprised audience that tlie Mother country now 1ms little in commnn with Iter erstwhile child when it comes to elections. The speaker was introduced by Mrs. Lilali Jen nings, legislative chairman. The eluh honored its first GirlofthcTerm when Miss Jane Ilennick, Ashland higli school senior, was awarded tlie BPWC traveling pin which she will wear until her successor is chosen at the end of the next six-week's period.
