Those Who Imagine Such Don't
Know Senate, Says
Stewart
BY CHARLES p. STEWART
NEA Service Writer

WASHINGTON, Oct. 9.-PCliti-
clans who consider Charles w.
Bryan too radical to be safe have
been crying out for sometime that
deadlock electoral college the
first of the year would amount prac-
tieally to Bryan for president.
1t doesn't necessarily follow, how
ever.
1t only follows, if it follows al all,
in case the Progressives are the tail
enders in the election in November
And they may not be.
If the Republicans lead and the
Progressi4es make the second best
showing, which is possible, then an
electoral college deadlock means
Charles G. Dawes for president just
just as naturally as the other lineup
means Bryan. y.
Just Suppose!
Politicians who consider Dawes
too conservative to be safe-just as
the conservatives consider Bryan
too radical-don't seem to have
thought of this. At any rate, they
haven't emitted any loud cries abou,
it, as the others have.
Compare the two cases.
Say the electoral college does
deadlock, with Coolidge and Dave,
receiving a plurality of the votes
and La Toilette and Wheeler in
third place.
Then suppose the House Of
Representatives, charged with tht
task of picking the president in cast
the electoral college can't do it, also
deadlocks, as probably it would
II such situation tie Senate rea
ly would make the presidential
choice, for the Senate elects the
vice president if the college cannot

presid dental selection would becom.
: president.
But while the House authorized
by he constitution to vote on tire,
presidential candidate, the Senatt
votes on but two candidates fos tn
vice presidency.
Bryan
Thus the SENATORIAL voting woul,
be limited to Dawes and Bryan.
IN a case like that it's not strain
ing matters to assume that the Pro
gressive senators, deeming Bryan
preferable to the upquestionably COZ
seryatiye Dawes, would throw thei
strength to Bryan. And, of course
the Democrats would vote for hir,.
Between Democrats and Progress
sives he'd have a majority and woul
become vice president, and inme
diately afterward president.
But suppose, with Coolidge an
Dawes leading in the elcctoriai CD
lege. La Toilette and Wheeler cam

Then, if both the college and tn
!, House deadlocked. the Senate woul
have to choose between Dawes an
. Wheeler.
, Naturally Dawes would get tn
Republicans support.

cratic senator's who would thro'
