House Group Backs Direct Vote System WASHINGTON (AP) A constitutional amendment calling for the direct popular election of the president in place of the electoral present system of allotting votes by states won overwhelming approval Tuesday in the House Judiciary Committee. By a vote of 28 to 6 the committee, amendment gave the proposed a strong push down the long and difficult road toward ratification. Unlikely for 1972 Even if finally approved, it unlikely to be in effect by the 1972 election, The main purpose of the posal is to insure that the presipro- dential candidate who receives the most votes across the nation wins. Three times under the ular present votes system the loser in pophas entered the White House, and it has almost happened many other times.

The fear that no one might gain a clearcut electoral victory in last year's election led to widespread clamor for electoral reform. Must Have 40 Per. Cent To dampen the threat of a third party candidate causing a deadlock, the amendment provides that a candidate need get only 40 per cent of the popular vote to win. If no one does, a runoff between the two top candidates would be held. Sixteen Democrats and 12 Republicans voted for the amendment.

The six votes against it were evenly divided between the two parties. 12 GOP Votes The 12 favorable Republican votes came in the face of President Nixon's repeated insistence that a direct popular election is too controversial to win ratification by 38 states. He advised Congress to adopt a compromise that would retain the present electoral vote system divide each state's among the candidates in proportion to their popular vote. The committee never gave serious consideration to any other plan, however, after lengthy hearings built up a record in favor of direct elections that most members found impressive.

Under French law, the two candidates having the highest number of first-round votes face each other in the runoff. The presidential term is for seven years. Poher Declines Comment Poher, whether meantime, declined to say he would himself be a candidate. A number of fellow Centrists have been urging him to run. In the last presidential elections in 1965, the Socialists, raditer cals, Communists and left splingroups combined to back a single candidate, Francois Mitterrand, against De Gaulle.
