A new campaign to change the Con- stitution—this one aimed at the Elec- toral College—is gaining recruits in Congress. What these men seek is to do away with the Electoral College and let the minority as well as the majority votes in each State show when the final roll on the election of a President is called. Possibly indicative of how Congress will receive the proposal is the type of men who back it. One is Senator Nor- ris, independent Nebraska Republican and co-author of the recently ratified lame duck amendment. Another is Representative Lea of California, chair- man of the Democratic House caucus. [} Seek Minority Representation. Lea’s idea briefly is that minorities in presidential elections should be repre- sented when the electoral vote is tallied at the joint session of House and Sen- ate. Under the present law, a presiden- tial candidate who receives the major- ity of popular votes in any State gets all of that State's electoral votes. Lea would divide the electoral votes in the same proportion as the popular votes were split. Thus, Herbert Hoover, instead of getting no electoral votes in New York for the 1,938,000 ballots cast for him in that State at the last election would have received 188, Franklin D. Roose- velt 2491 and Norman Thomas 1.41. “In 1932,” Lea said, “Hoover re- ceived 2,150,000 votes in States he car- rled and which gave him 59 electoral votes. He received in all nearly 15,.- 800,000 votes and over 13,600,000 of those votes brought him no electoral vote whatever.” Vote Under New Plan. As the last election finally was tabu- lated, Roosevelt received 472 electoral votes, Hoover 59 and Thomas none. Under Lea's plan, Roosevelt would have received 324.66, Hooer 187.32 and ’I'homu 6.81. “The fundamental evil of our pres. ent unit voting system.” Lea said, “is that you disfranchise the mmorlty whether the minority is 10 per cent or 49 per cent, it is disfranchised. It is an embezzlement of votes; it does not simply cancel votes, it appropriates them to a different purpose than that for which they were cast.” Norris already has introduced a bill meed:d)m‘dhlii idea cg the change n an 4 expects to press the plan in the next House when emer- gency legislation is out of the way. 0.

New York Commodity Broker Says THE EVENING New Faces in Congress DEAR, LOUISIANA, A% BY WILL P. KENNEDY. ] HE trout that fleck the streams of the Bayou State are rejoicing since the voters of -the eighth district of Louisiana sent Cleve- land Dear to the national House of Representatives, for this newcomer to the Capitol is one of the most ardent fishermen in Congress. Like his namesake, Grover Cleveland, Representative Dear is convinced that rod and gun offer just about the ulti- mate in sports, and he is counting con- fidently on giving the deniz>ms of Ches- apeake Bay many a battle when his leg- islative duties will permit. Incidentally, like others who know the lure of woods and water, this Louisianan is a firm be- liever in conservation of wild life re- sources and is particularly proud of the results he has aided in obtaining in his home State. Dear is a native of the State that sent him to Congress. Born at Sugartown, Beauregard Parish, in 1888, when Grover Cleveland was the patron saint of Democracy, Dear made his entry into the world just when neighbors of his son. According to Dear's story it looked for a time as if there would be | two boys in that neighborhood named “Grover Cleveland,” but the families | compromised by splitting the difference and the other boy was called “Grover” while Baby Dear got the more historical part of that famous name. He was educated in country schools, DIRECT EXPANSION OF CURRENCY URGED | | Change in Policy Is Necessary to Restore Prices. By the Associated Press. | Robert Harrias of New York. a com- modity broker, n a statement issued here, has urged on the new adminis- | tration direct currency expansion. Such a program, he contended, was neces- | sary to restore values of comnodmuw and raw materials. Declaring the currency policy of the last administration “fallacious and de- flationary” and as tending to create “more debts and taxes,” Harriss as- | serted, “we now have a wonderful op- portunity to put this direct currency | expansion into effect while we have an | embargo against the exportation and | payment of gold.” ‘With direct currency expansion, he said, Congress could permit the issuance of a larger number of dollars against the ounce of gold. The “excessive buy- ing power of the present dollar,” he declared, had blocked economic recov- ery, adding his belief that there could be no “semblance of prosperity in our country until the price of commodities, raw materials and other values is re- stored to the approximate level where | the existing stupendously inflated debts | and taxes were incurred.” U.
