TRY A WEEKLY. CLASSIFIED AD ,
Washington , I k have sub'
mitted a joint resolution to the
Senate (S. J. Res. 6) propos
ing a constitutional; amendment
governing the election 'pt feai
dent and Vic President VAsks
of uncertainty : Surrounding " ike
I960 'Presidential election demV
onstrates the need for this .re
form.' The iectoral college sys
tern , of ;chqosing' the President
was a ' compromise measure ' in
the Constitutional Convention of
1787.; Its .twithora intended the
electors to! deliberate ; and vote
as .individuals . for a President.
The rise of the political party
system in - the early V 1800's
thwarted the plan. ' Direct : elec
tion of j the electors and unit
voting of electors by states have
caused three . candidates -- for
President i to ,. win . the popular
vote and lose the election. : As
a result of 208' proposed amend-
I. ments have been introduced in
Congress up to the end of the
1960 session to reform the elec
toral college. . Almost half of
these amendments have, been of
fered since 1 947. ' ' None '. have
passed since the 12th Amend
ment was i incorporated into the
Constitution' in 1804.' - -
- Ervin Amendment My amend
ment is similar to the Lodge
Gossett Plan (S J. Res. 17) in
troduced January 1, .1961, - by
Senator Kefauver. v Like it my
amendment calls for the propor
tional method of dividing each
state's electoral votes. 1 Each
candidate would ' receive the
same proportion of the electoral
votes as his share of the state's
popular vote. Fractional votes
would be carried to three deci
mals. My amendment differs
from the Lodge-Gossett Plan in
two respects. First, the Lodge
Gosset Plan is silent on the
manner and place of holding
elections. My amendment keeps
the present Constitutional 'pro
vision on this. ..... Second, my
amendment would retain the
present power of he House of
Representatives to choose the
President and the Senate to
choose the Vice-President where
no candidate has a majority of
tne electoral vote. S. J. Res

Who may work for several em

This could happen because the
worker did not furnish the em

Therefore, it is good business

They have a special postcard
