The answer lies in the totting

miracle. It's a job done, not by
the government, but by the priv
ate en'erprise of press associa
tions and newsp;mers through

President Will Be
oElected o&Dec. 17
Qvasngton CAP) The presi
dent and vice president of the
l teig SlStes for the next four
years technically will be elected
on Dec. i?1, rather than or Nov.
6.
The voters on election oar will
not rst their ballots directly for
President Eiser&ower or Adlai
E. Stevenson, but for president
ial UoQ favoring a certain
presidential candidate, o
TJyse electors, chosen by "a
plurality of the voters in each
tate will meet in their respec,
tive jiate capitals pn Dec. 17
and fwrmally castiher ballots

Although tne American people
jvihave knSWn the result for
Ctwo Qnonths, the 4ene and
House wHJ meet in joint ses
sion next aan. 3 to count these
sectoral vfltes and officially
procRjm the winners who will
take offieyn Jan. 20.o
I Bv dawn, the public usually
knows most of the answer to
the "Who won?" question. By
noon, they'll probably know
for sure both the President and
Congress.
His newspaper, his television
and radio sets, bring swiftly to
the American man-in-the street
the big picture formed by 60
million ballot. It's the assemb
ling of this mosaic that takes
some doing.
The United Press on election
night might well marshal 8,000
editorial workers. The reporter
asked the precinct clerk: "Quick,
Jim who won?" The figures
speed by telephone to the near
est UP. bureau. They are fun
neled to a selected U.P. bureau
in the state in which they origin
ate. There they are tabulated
county by county Into a state
total.
Bit by bit he figures flow
on .special . "tab" wires across
the country to press election
headquarters in Washington.
First the trickle, and then the
'flood. Between 10 p.m. and mid
night if the 1952 presidential
election can be taken as a guide
United Press tabulators will
count votes at a clip of 140,000
a minute.
Extia Mileage
To cover the national election,
the U P. is adding 10,295 miles
to its leased wire network. That
means that on election night and
until noon "next day the .U.P.
will be receiving totals and send
ing out comprehensive news stor
ies on 350,000 miles of wire in
the United States. Adding in the
telephoto network brings the
wire mileage to 371,000.
In the state bureaus, state
and regional writers that flow
on regional wires to news media.
In-the big Washington bureau,
amid maze of fast-changing
charts and humming tabulating
machines, deskmen and political
writers pull the vote together
and assay its meaning.
At 60 words a " minute the
news dispatches are tapped out
by printer machine on the trunk
wires stories that grow and
change and are scrapped for
new stories as .the early skimpy
returns become a groundswell
'.through the night.
Bv morning the big charts
that record the races President,
Senate, House, governors are
smudged; the tabulators nd
writers are into their seventh
cup of coffee; the reporters are
coddling aching leg muscles; the
U.P. accounting office is begin
ning to think about the 5100,000
cost bite of this one-night opera
tion. But the public has the news.

Motorist Now Leary
Of Parking Under Tree
Buffalo, N. Y, (U.R) Ray
mond J. Boutet has good reason
to' be suspicious about parking
his automobile beneath a tree.
Ten years ago, Boutet left his
car on Delaware ave., near the
Knights of Columbus building
and the machine was wrecked
when a storm toppled a big tree
limb on it.
This year, on almost the same
date, Boutet parked his auto in
the same spot and went fishing
A storm blew up in his absence
and ripped a limb from the tree.
It fell on Boutet's brand new
car.
