more active man more, a less
active man, fewer calories.
An average height, moder
ately active woman that age
who weighs around 125
pounds would use approxi
mately 2,000 calories a day.
To lose weight, a person
should eat fewer calories
than he is using. In this
case the body will use stored
fat, resulting in a weight
loss. However, before join
ing “the Lunch Bunch” or
starting any drastic diet, a
medical check-up is in order.
These crash diets do not
supply the food nutrients
needed to maintain good
health over an extended
oeriod of time. They should
be followed only as recom
mended by a physician.
For those with a minor
weight problem, C. W. Over

March 2-12 is National
Peanut Week. This notice
may not v' seem' related to
talks On calorie counting, but
weight watchers now can
nibble on peanuts from
which molt than half the
calories have been removed.
.The first low-calorie pea
nuts are being introduced in
stores followihg the adop
tion of a process that
“squeezes” the peanuts, then
restores th.em to normal
size and shape.
In this process, the calorie
content of peanuts is reduc
ed by placing shelled pea
nuts in a , hydraulic press
and squeezing Out much of
the peanut’s natural oH,
which contains most of the
calories. The peanuts retain
their original 'flavor and
high-protein content, accord
ing to the T7SDA. Thgt
have a lighter color than
conventional peanuts, are
slightly less salty and have
a distinct crunchy texture.
Incidentally, our Edenton
peanut facilities are among
those working on this pro
cess.

SAM ERVIN
* SAYS ☆
WASHINGTON Consti
tutional problems seldom 1
make the headlines, but
they do determine how well
we are governed. Tne elec
toral system of choosing a i
President and Vice Presi- 1
dent has been with us since I
1787. In the years since
then, it has proved a source 1
of controversy, and has trig- :
gered about as many de
oates as any other sustained
issue before the Congress.
Basically, the system was
founded on a false premise ;
that a few men called “elec
tors” would choose our chief ,
executive officers. The sys-II
lem has never worked as'
planned. After Washing
ton’s administration, poli
tical parties arose, and out
moded the plan. Custom has
altered some of the elec
toral system mechanisms, but
the antiquated procedure'
continues to this day.
The problem is a current
one. The President has
sent a recommendation to
Congress for a constitutional
amendment to provide that
each presidential elector be
required te vote for the
party candidates proposed by
the party which nominated
him. Since only eight elec
tors have defected in 43
presidential elections, and no
defection has ever altered
the result, it hardly seems
worth the effort to amend
the constitution to accom
plish so little.
What is needed is an over
haul of the whole electoral
process. This would make
the amendatory procedure
worthwhile. Last week I
joined Senators Sparkman,
Saltonstall and Dodd in
sponsoring a joint resolu-'
tion to abolish the Electoral
College and institute a pro
portional method of casting
electoral votes.
Governmental reform has
been spurred by recent Su
preme Court decisions which
have drastically altered rep
resentation in state legisla
tive bodies. Indeed, the
one-man, one-vote decrees of
the courts have also reap
portioned House seats in
Congress. Irrespective of the
merits of such court deci
sions. attention has been fo
cused on the antiquated
Sectoral system which many
in Congress have long sought
to correct.'
! The proposal which I have
joined _in sponsoring would
accomplish needed changes
while avoiding the pitfalls
i inherent in each of the
other . resolutions that have
been introduced.
First, it would abolish the
unit-rule System by count
ing electoral ”otes. The sfs

In lieu of the unit-rule sys
tem under which the win
ner takes all of a state's
electoral vote, the proposed
bill would divide the elec
toral vote according to each
candidate’s percentage of a
state’s popular vote. Conse
quently, the vote of every
voter would receive its pro
portionate weight.
Second, it proposes that if
no candidate receives 40 per
cent of the total electoral
vote, the election would be

decided by the Congress in
joint session, with each
Senator and Representative
having one vote. This would
eliminate the inequity of
permitting each state dele
gation—no matter how large
or small —to cast a single
vote in contests which would
now be thrown into the
House.
Third, like the Presi
dents recommendation, it
would abolish the Electoral
College as a useless append
age to our governmental
structure. Legally, the elec
tor must choose the Presi
dent and Vice President.
Actually, in practice, the
elector is morally bound to
carry out pro-forma func
tions as a party delegate.
This produces a strange
paradox in a nation govern
ed by written law. An
amendment should clarify
the procedure.
The constitutional need is
well known. What is im
portant is that the system
be corrected before it per
mits a serious problem to
arise in some future elec
tion.
