Menzies Proposes Senate Election Reform Bill
Canberra reports Prime Minister Menzies introducing a constitutional bill to provide an odd number of Senate candidates, aiming to reduce double dissolution deadlock. He argues proportional representation would still allow a possible stalemate, but the chance would be minimized by electing an odd number of candidates. The bill shifts the task of classifying Senate seats to voters at the poll. The Opposition leader Chifley obtained an adjournment of debate.
