To End Electoral COLLEGE
BY the Associated Press.


Senator Guffey, Democrat, of

a resolution calling for abolition OF
the electoral college, which he said
represented an unnecessary go-be-
tween" hindering the voters from
depressing their choice for Presi-
dent.
In offering the measure, Senator
Guffey read a newspaper dispatch
telling OF the Texas Supreme Court
Iupholding the Democracti party's
traditional manner Of selecting elec-
tors in that State. Texas Demo-
cratic electors this year will not be
upholding the Democratic party's
nominees unless the national party
meets certain demands.
Senator Pepper, Democrat. OF
Florida expressed fear that actions
such as that Of the Texas conven-
ltion freeing Democratic electors to
vote for whatever Democrat they
please constitute "a dangerous
threat to the institution Of democ-
|racy ITSELF"
Under that decision, he said, there
is mo way by which people Of that
State can vote for President Roose-
velt If he Is the nominee"
Senator George, Democrat. OF
Georgia said he had no fear Con-
gress would ever pass such con-
stitutional amendment as that sug-
gested by Senator Guffey or that

Urged by Norman Thomas

By the Associated Press.
PORTLAND, Me, June "a
Neither Republicans nor Democrats,
Norman Thomas declared last
night, will make a clear issue of
the question Of postwar economy.
There will be a great deal of talk
about free enterprise, but to avoid
economic collapse, there must be
some kind of public handling of
industry, the Socialist party's presi-
Dental nominee said in an address
at the First Parish Church.
In this war, he continued, some
thing like miracle has happened
in that we have been able to pro-
duce more than any one thought
possible, and despite the war, we
have even managed to raise the
standard of living to small degree.
THE resources and machines
which have produced the munitions
for our war effort must be diverted
after the war to channels through
which the higher standard of living
may be maintained"
Mr.. Thomas said political peace
offensive" was needed in America.
He advocated an armistice with
Germany and Japan as soon as
those countries adopted the kind
of government with which I'VE can
reach suitable agreement
