WILSON THE OLDEST
PRESIDENT IN go YEARS

Washington, January 23.-Presideut
Wilson IL the oldest Executive to pre-
side over the destinies of the United
States for the last 60 years. When he
! Is inaugurated for the second time
March he will be sixty years old, a
span OF years that no President has
crossed since the inauguration OF Buch-
anan in 1857.
incidentally the President is one of
the six oldest executives ever in the
White House. Previous to 1861 the men
chosen to hold the reins OF government
generally reached late period in life
before their election. John Adams was
81 when inaugurated in 1897, Jackson
also was 81 when first inaugurated in
1929 Benjamin Harrison was the old
est man ever chosen for the Presi
dency, being 6S at the time of his in
auguration in 1S41. Taylor was Ga and
Buchanan 65, respectively, when they
were inaugurated respectively.
Aside from these all Presidents have
been younger than woodrow Wilson
when entering the White House. This
has been particularly noticeable in the
last fifty years when all Executives
have been comparatively young. Theo-
dore Roosevelt was the youngest Pres
ident ever inaugurated in this coun-
try, being but AZ when he took office.
