The give-away program - that native North American invention which makes it possible fc-r the radio listener to win anything‘ mm the SNHHGO River to the kitchen sink — ta a frustration to a listener in the United States, but. a douhle frustration to his Danadian counterpart.

Joli 0i Choosing ii. S. President Highly involved

By Clyde Blackburn

WASHINGTON. Oct. 81 -- (GP) -'I‘welvo states. if they voted solidly for one of the candidates. could elect. the next President. oi ,the United states. resardless how ‘the other 36 states voted.

That is because the constitut- ional responsibility for choosing the president. and vice-president rests on an "Electoral college.” The over-all popular vote is H011 the decisive factor.

The Electoral College wu set up in 1787 by the writers of the Con-

stitution. Some changes weremade in its functions by the 12th amendment to the Constitution ratified in 180-1. l; was created be- cause the founders of the country were doubtful about the ability of the people to make a wise choice in s free election. i It. is provided that each state shall choose a body of "electors," one for every senator and con- gressman the statesends to Wash- ington. The electors may not be oonlzressmen or other persons holding public office for gain.

There are 96 senators and 435 members of the House of Repre- sentatives—a total of 531, Thus. 531 electors must be created to choose a DT$ldOl1L

It is the tradition and custom that the party getting the major- ity oi’ votes in each state gets the support of the ell-tire group of "electors" in the state.

0n Population Basil The number oi‘ Home member! a state sends to Washington is based 0n population. In addition,

Considers What Atlantic Pact 4 Will Mean To ll. S.

B! 1M. Roberto. Ir. Associated Press News Analyst The diplomats seem to have found a formula for a defence agreement between the United States and Western Europe which will not violate the traditional antipathy 0f the United Stains to- ward iron-clad military alliances.

It ls expected that the proposed treaty will not autcmstically coni- rmit the United States to war if one of its partners is attacked. but. will merely provide that such an attack will be “considered in the same light" as though it were a direct attack.

Under the prseent conception of’ Western Iihlrope as a vital part. of United states defences. this may seem a highly technical reservat- ion. But it preserves the right of the United States Congress in de- termine when the United States shall go to war. It guards against future discovery that the United States is ccmmitted to a lino of action which might not be mm- patible with awihatuzed situation.

The wording oi any treaty. of course, is meaningless unless taken in conjunction with a true evalu- ation of the will and ability of its signatories.

Right now the Western Allies.
