TEntry KEY WEST, Fla.-(P)-Chalr- man Frank McKinney of the Democratic National Committee said yesterday President Truman may not "choose to run" for re- election in the event of an early peace in Korea. McKinney told a news confer- ence he believes the President would then feel he has achieved his major goal and would step aside without any attempt to dic- tate a possible successor. "I AM FR*ANKLY of the opin- ion, and. it is only m personal opinion, that this decision will be predicated on the success or f al- ure of resolving the Korean situa- tion satisfactorily," McKinney said, ending a two-day series of in- timate talks with the President at the winter White House here. McKinney's comment, per hap the most significant yet in the nation-wide guessing game over Truman's intentions, came ds Ohatches from Korea re- portd that Communist news- ' n with the Red truce delega- tion were talking of cease-fire agreement in three or four weeks. Communist newsmen have fre- quently reflected the views of the official Red delegation through- out the long-drawn truce talks. * * * MCKINNEY'S suggestion pro- vided a new twist to widespread speculation over any set of cir- cumstances that might induce Truman not to run again. Political bigwigs of both parties have ad- vanced numerous theories, but un- til yesterday none had hit on the relatively simple explanation that Truman might be guided by the outcome of the conflict his oppo- nents have dubbed "Truman's War." The statement by McKinney served to turn the spotlight back on Truman's oft-repeated as- sertion that his only desire is fo peace. McKinney told newsmen he has hopes the President will announce his decision before May. 15 when the Democratic Executive Com- mittee meets in Chicago to select a keynoter and other officers for the national convention in July.

The Judiciary statement, read at the SL meeting, also recom- mended 'that only L.S.&A. stu- dents be permitted to vote in an L.S.&A. election." The statement also maintained that "pertinent factors were care- fully considered in detail but they were not felt to be of great enough weight to rebut the pre- sumption." * * * BY PERTINENT factors, the body in part referred to a dubious constitution of the senior class, by which architecture students were permitted to take part in literary college senior activities. However, Judiciary could find no, trace of the constitution's legality. It had been turned ups by Phil Berry, '52, SL treasurer. Another factor referred to was precedent, which at times has al- lowed architecture student parti- cipation in literary class activities. But on other occasions, architec- ture students have been barred from these activities. When contacted last night Law- rence declined to comment on the action. It was known that he had already gone to some expense in the preparation of his- campaign.
