Jolt To Riding TORONTO (CP) -- George Hees went skiing, and Toronto Broadview is up for grabs. When the trade minister quit the cabinet and took off for Europe, his jolted constituency organization had the sudden task of finding a man to hold a riding that had been almost un- waveringly Conservative since Confederation but showed dang- er signs last June, Since 1900, industrial and working - class Broadview in south-central Toronto has been the field of four nationally- known Conservative figures-- except for a 1908 election when an Independent sneaked in by 793 votes. When Broadview was a divi- sion of Toronto East, it was held between 1900 and 1921 (ex- cept for that 1908 miss) by Sir Edward Kemp, successor in 1917 to Sir Sam Hughes as mili- E, B.
