This then is the answer to the ques-
so superior, militarily, to the South
Koreans? The answer is that they are
Koreans, but of the different species.
They are the Koreans from Soviet Rus
sia, Koreans who smelled gunpowder on
the banks of the Volga and stormed the
defenses of Berlin. These are regular
Soviet soldiers and officers. of Korean
extraction, who donned North Korean
uniforms and rolled in their Russian
built tanks across the 38th parallel. The
South Koreans are no match for such
experienced, disciplined, war scared
professional soldiers.
No doubt there also are many real
North Koreans in the North Korean
ranks, but even those went through a
rigorous five years of training under the
tutelage of the Soviet officers. They
are good soldiers, danked on both sides
by their compatriots from Russia.
How can we tell the difference be-
tween the Russian Koreans and the
North Koreans? There is no difference,
except that the Koreans from Russia
speak perfect Russian, as we'll as Korean
This, then, is the explanation of the
spectacular progress of the North
Koreans. We should have known it
long ago. and should have taken all
necessary measures against the possibil-
lty Of such attack.

SheIyed Electoral Reform

Last February in bipartisan vote of 64 to
27, the Senate emphatically approved the Lodge
Gossett resolution for constitutional amend
ment to revamp the so-called Electoral College.
Now however, the House has even more
phatically rejected it, with the great majority of
Democrats and Republicans joining together
against it in vote of 21O to 1874. In all proba-
bility, therefore, the issue will not be heard of
again for many months to come.
Yet, despite the House oppostion-expressed
in familiar arguments that had been effectively
rebutted in the Senate-the defeated resolution
still makes too much sense to be filed away and
forgotten For its adoption would end an an
achronism in our political system-an anachron-
ism under which a presidential candidate, if he
wins a majority plurality of the popular vote
in any State, receives all of that States eector-
al votes regardless of the fact that his opponent
may be only hairs breadth behind him in terms
of the ballot box.
1t is clear enough that the count in our
presidential elections would be more representa-
tive If the electoral votes-as proposed by the
Lodge-Gossett idea for constitutional amend
ment-were distributed among the various cand-
dates in proportion to the number of popular
votes cast for them Under such a system
which would include safeguards against the pos
sibility that tiny plurality might put splinter
party into power-there would be much less
chance than there Is now Of contest being
thrown into the House of Representatives, with
the winner chosen on partisan basis.
Similarly, under the Lodge Gossett idea
man could not be elected President against
candidate with a greater number of popular
votes-a thing that has happened three times in
our history, with resulting tension and disunity
in the Nation. Other arguments for the proposed
reform-such as that it would tend to break up
the Souths one e-party system and cut down the
excessive political power of minority pressure
groups in pivotal States-are so persuasive that
its eventual adoption seems not unlikely. regard
less of the action recently taken by the House.

Cause and Effect

1t seems to me that the American pub
lie is at present more confused than
alarmed. While we get assurances from
reliable Government sources that food
and all essential commodities are plenti-
full. and while the press, TV and radio
admonish the public about the evil of
boarding many manufacturers swiftly
and bluntly increase prices daily. The
consumer is therefore left in a dilemma
and is rushing to stock up with items at
prevailing prices-for the sole purpose
of saving money, rather than boarding.
This results in an abnormal run on these
particular items 1t naturally depletes
the normal supply from the retailers
shelves, thereby creating an artificial
demand for those items from the whole
salers and manufacturers.
This vicious cycle is now prevalent in
every town and village of our United
States.
Does it not seem paradoxical to appeal to
the consumer without stopping the evil at
its source; lie. by not allowing the manu-
facturer to raise prices at this time.
Hoarding is only psychologist symp-
tom. not sickness. 1t shows that, some
where. something is wrong. This partic-
ular symptom can easily be corrected
by attacking its origin. In this case it
is the manufacturer and wholesaler, who
are primarily interested in more profits.
They are so, openly and f1agrantly. with
out any consideration for the Govern
ment or the public.

Tulane Scores in Every Period
In Handing Navy 20 Defeat

BALTIMORE, Nov. 11.-Hapless
Navy suffered it's worst defeat of
the season today as a big fast
Tulane team romped to a 27-0
victory before 10000 chilled spec
tators in Municipal Stadium,
On an afternoon when the
enemy proved unexpectedly strong,
Navy never looked more futile,
yielding a touchdown in each
period and never making a serious
threat of its own.
The closest Navy came to the
Green Waves goal was the 23-
yard line after recovering a tumble
by Ellsworth Kingerly late in the
final quarter. The Midshipmen
ran off three plays, last of which
was a pass by Quarterback Bob
Zastrow that was intercepted in
the end zone.

AS a matter of fact, Tulane
passed up no less than four scor-
ing opportunities inside of Navy's
20-yard line. losing the ball on
the II, 10, 5 and finally, in the
end zone as a result of a tumble.
Tulane's big line held Navy to
131 net yards rushing and al
though the Midshipmen threw 26
passes they completed only four
for 95' yards. On the other hand,
Tulane unleashed three backs in
Harold Waggoner, George Kinek
and Ronnie Kent who ran over
and outside the Annapolis de-
tenders, and an exceptional
passer in Quarterback Joe Ernst,
who completed Is of 80 aerials
for 292 yards. A total of 81 passes
was thrown, 35 by Tulane and
26 by Navy.

his third.
The Rochester player, however,
took the second when Knowles
sent his tee shot into the right

side of a trap in deep grass and
his second was short of the green.
Although Knowles laid Urzetta
two partial stymies on the third
