By BYRON PRICE

(Chief of Bureau, The Associated
 Press, Washington
 It develops that Senate defeat of the Norris electoral college con- stitutional amendment after al most everyone had conceded its adoption, was due to a sudden realization that the proposal had been changed considerably from it's original purpose.
 At first, Senator Norris appar- ently had in mind chiefly the abolition of the electoral college machinery and popular election of Presidents.
 In it's final form, however, the amendment went much further It made independent presidential candidates eacier, tending to weaken the power of national con- ventions; and provided that Presi- dent and vice-Presidents be voted for separately, so that they might easily be elected from different parties.
 When the Senators thought that over it opened up wide field of speculation. Even 50, the vote was close, and there is a .,ke:lf ood oi later favol able action.
