part 2 --From WWI to the start of the Depression
Publications concerning improvement of the lot of workers, farmers and socialists, as more fully discussed in part 1.
Also, in this period banking reform is more discussed.
Banking and monetary reform covered are mostly pre-1935.
After 1934, books on those topics and on the SC government in Alberta are so numerous it would be difficult to include them.
in Peel's PP pre-1935 means no. 1 to no. 5828,
in Weinrich it means no. 1 to no. 1689.
Calgary Labour MP William Irvine helped the cause of Social Credit when as MP he had Major Douglas, George Bevington and other banking reformers address a House of Commons committee.
Ten years later, after the Depression hit and as William Aberhart got excited about monetary reform, the UFA avoided committing itself to bank reform.
The CCF did to some degree:
Davies, Stanley Socialization of the credit and banking system of Canada. published in Calgary by the CCF, 1934, and
Coote; H.E. Spence; Garland; Wm. Irvine
Speeches on the revision of the Bank Act and on the Act to Incorporate the Bank of Canada, delivered in the House of Commons on Thursday, March 1 and Thursday, March 8, 1934 34 (speech transcribed and published in a pamphlet. (Weinrich 1623)
the UFA leaders's refusal to say they would try to work for monetary reform helped lead Many UFA supporters to move to Aberhart's SC League, and the 1935 election went in Aberhart's favour.
The UFA lost every seat (a disproportional loss -- the UFA actually deserved to win 7 seats).

WWI
Private Peat" (Harold Reginald Peat (1893-1960)
"Private Peat" lost the use of an arm in the fighting. He became penpals with British writer Louisa Watson Small. They married and co-wrote a book on his wartime experiences under title Private Peat. Later they co-wrote The Inexcusable Lie against war and nationalism. It was published by Barse & Hopkins, New York, 1923.
Louisa was also author of Mrs. Private Peat, an account of her wartime experiences as a British woman.
Their lives are chronicled in Wikipedia under "Harold Reginald Peat" and "Louisa Watson Peat".

[1916] booklet P.R. and Civic Government by C.J. (Christopher) Yorath.
2000 copies were distributed by Saskatchewan government (Department of Municipal Affairs) to aldermen and officials throughout the province.
(P.R. Record Oct. 1916.
[P.R. and Civic Government not in hathi trust, not in bookfinder, not listed in Peel's Bibliography]
Christopher J. Yorath, born in 1879, came from England in 1913 to become commissioner of Saskatoon. Yorath also acted as city treasurer, managing the city's finances through the turbulent war years. ... resigned in 1921 to become city commissioner for Edmonton, and later moved to Nanaimo, where he died in 1932. Both Yorath Island, south of Saskatoon, and Yorath Avenue in the Avalon area of Saskatoon were named in his honour.
(from Encyclopedia of Saskatchewan, which makes no mention of his support for proportional representation, although he was city commissioner in Saskatoon when it adopted PR and also city commissioner in Edmonton when it adopted PR).

John D. Hunt The Dawn of a New Patriotism (1917) hardcover book
Much on proportional representation
Using the City of Winnipeg, his home before coming to Edmonton in 1915, as an example, he stressed the need for a city-wide multi-member district and fair voting in the new larger district.
As clerk of the legislative council in the Alberta government, he was in position to press for electoral reform and succeeded, with Alberta adopting partial PR in 1924 and the City of Edmonton adopting PR for election of city councillors in 1923.

Pamphleteers, such as Edmonton's R.C. Owens and Saskatoon's H.C. Pierce, had prepared the waters. (Pierce, Herbert Chandler, Our money system and what it is doing to us: It is sure doing a plenty: The remedy and how to apply it, inject gently to prevent shock. Peel's Prairie Provinces online)
