Nafhn Expected to Discuss
New. Book About President
By I,YI,E C. WILSON
WASHINGTON, March 12 I1PI
Ten days or so from now the na
tion will be talking about a book
called "Mr. President." written by
William Hillman and illustrated by
Alfred Wagg. .
This popular discussion more
likely will increase than diminish.
perhaps right up to convention or
election time. Farrar. Straus- and
Young arc the publishers. They
have ordered an unusually large
first press run of 110,000 copies to
go on sale March 18.
On March 25 all 27 cdilions of
Reader's Digest will reach the
stands in the United Stales and
foreign countries with a condensa
tion of "Mr. President." The Digest
never before has simultaneously
published a condensation in all of
its English and foreign language
editions. There will be talk abroad
about this book as well as here at
home. Reader's Digest estimates
that its condensation will reach
55,000,000 persons.
The "Mr. President" or this
book is Harry S. Truman. He gave
Bill Hillman the keys to his non
secret but peculiarly personal files.
The result is 253 pages of illus
trated text. There are 65,000 words
" direct quotation, thousands of
words from the President's per
sonal diaries, documents, letters,
and notes.
Do, you want lo know Mr. Tru
man's privale thoughts after writ
ing that famous letter to a music
critic who said Miss Margaret
sang less than well? The publisher
says they will he there.
I3ut that is mostly blurb come
on, whether it is there or not. The
significance of this book seems
best stated in some senlences from
Hillman's explanation of why and
how he wrote it. He relates that
he had a letter from Mr. Truman
about it whichsaid:
"I have concluded that for Ihe
historical record and a broader
comprehension of Ihe public of
their 32nd President and the presi
dency, I should release some of
them private papers for publica
tion now. I want the people to
know the presidency as I have ex
perienced it and I want them to
know me as I'am."

Mr. Truman told Hillman some
persons may judge the book to be
a political act. That is to say, a
campaign year product in behalf
of a candidate. Hillman and the
President state that is not so.
It could become so, of course, by
force of circumstances. There is a
good chance that this book will
be part of a President s re-election
campaign. Events will determine
mm.
But for sure this book is the
challenge of a man who feels that
many.' people misunderstand him,
down-rate him, or, maybe, hold
him in some degree of contempt.
Mr. Truman has taken n direct
and unusual approach toward the
historical niche to which he feels
he is entitled.

Candidate Could Win Presidency Without
Majority of Ballots Being Cast for Him
By JOHN L. CUTTER
WASHINGTON, March 12'IP
A President of the United States
may be elected with less than a
majority of the popular vote cast
That is' because the people do
not vote directly for the nomin
ees. They vote for presidential
electors.
There are 531 electors In what
is called the electoral college. It
takes 2bb electoral votes to put
a man in the White House re
gardless of how many popular
votes a presidential nominee gets
In the November election.
Each state has the same num
ber of electoral votes as It has
members In Congress one for
each member of the House and
Senate.
The method of choosing elect
ors varies according to state law.
In some states, the names of can
didates for elector appear on the
ballot along with the names ol
the presidential and vice presiden
tial nominees.
In a tew states, only the names
of the candidates for elector are
on the ballot. And In others, only
the names of the presidential and
vice presidential nominees them
selves are shown. In any case, it
Is electors not the nominees

Services Held
Funeral services were held TueS'

themselves whom the voters ac
tually choose.
Some weeks after the general
election, the electors meet on Dec.
15 this year at their respective
state capitols and cast their votes
for President and vice president.
In theory, the nominee who got
the biggest popular vote In any
state wins all of that state's elec
toral votes. Some states require
It by law. But It doesn't always
happen that way. In 1948, for ex
ample, the Truman-Barkley tick
et won the popular vote in Ten
nessee. But one oi tne state s elec
tors cast his ballot for the Thur-niond-Wrlght
State's Rights tick
et. Sen. Henry Cabot Lodge Jr., (R-
Mass.) has proposed a constitu
tional amendment under which
the electoral votes of each state
would be divided up among the
nominees on the basis of the per
centage ot the total popular vote
received by each. Under this pro
posal, a nominee who polled bu
per cent of a state's popular vote
would get 60 per cent of the elec
toral votes Instead of all ol tnem.
The results of the November el
ection do not become official un
til the results of. the electoral vot-
ine have been forwarded to Con
gress, and opened and counted at
a joint session of the House and

Senate on Jan. 6, 1953, for this
year's election.
It is possible for a nominee to
get a majority of the popular :
vote and still lose in the electoral
college. That has happened twice.
In 1876, Democrat Samuel J.
Tllden got 4,284,885 popular votes
and Republican Rutherford B.
Hayes got 4,033,950. The Repub
licans contested the election. Con- ,
gross appointed an electoral com
mission of 15 members, eight Re-,
publicans and seven Democrats,
to look into It. The commission,
by a strict party line vote, award
ed the 22 electoral votes of Flor
ida. Louisiana. South Carolina
and Oregon to Hayes, who was de-
clared the winner on an electoral
vote of 185 to 184.
In 1888, Democrat Grover Cleve
land, seeking re-election, polled
5,540,050 popular votes to Repub
lican Benjamin Harrison's 5,444,
337. But Harrison was the winner
of an electoral vote of 233 to 168.
In case no nominee gets a ma
jority of the electoral votes, the
elect ion of a president of the Unit
ed States Is thrown Into the
House of Representatives. That,
too, has happened twice In 1800
when Thomas Jefferson defeated
Aaron Burr, nnd In 1824 when
John Qulncy Adams defeated An
drew Jackson.
