DEMOCRATS FAIL OUT

Andrew Jackson was a great man, one
of the outstanding Presidents of the
United States He was a noted cham
pion of the peoples rights, his name is
revered in history. and he is looked upon
as the patron saint of the Democratic
party.
As such he is honored each year on
January 8, the date of his victory over the
British at New Orleans in the war of
1912. when loyal Democrats throughout
the nation gather to pay tribute to him.
Usually, on such occasions, the tOma-
hawk is buried, at least temporarily, and
tactional strife is forgotten as Bourbons
sing their praises of Jackson.
San Diego, however, proves to be an eX-
ception this year. Tonight there will be
two Jackson day dinners in the coast city,
for two factions have been unable to
agree on a momentOuS question-shall
liquor be served or prohibited at the
Jackson day dinner
A casual observer would be justified in
thinking that there would be little or no
reason for dispute over this matter, the
Democratic party having returned liquor
to legal status There are still some
die-hard drys in the Democratic ranks,
however, and these want no liquor at
dinner honoring Andrew Jackson, who,
if history is correct, did not refrain from
at least a drink now and then.
The drink difference is augmented by
charges and counter charges, in which
one faction accuses the other of making
threats that heads in political jobs would
be Topped off unless such office holders
attended the regular" dinner - that
sponsored by the Meade faction of the
party. That is, the McAdoO faction say
theirs is the regular" dinner and the
other is Opposition. The latter reverses
the appelations.
1t would appear that the Democrats
are running true to form When success
comes to them they start wrangling
among themselves and lose their strength.
This, however, is not entirely Demo-
cratic prerogative. The members of the
G. O. P. have been known to do the same
thing
Andrew Jackson is undoubtedly worth
two dinners, but it does make his follow
ers look a bit ridiculous

ADDITION WINNER

Star OF Hollywood Hotter
Gives Advice to Girls
Seeking Radio Role.

TIME winner OF Columbia's Nation
wide contest for a girl 70 play
the leading feminine role in q
Il new radio dramatic serial.
Hollywood Hotel" will have
to remain natural" before the micro
phone. according to Dick Powell. who
will be the star Of the drama tizations
At Columbias request. Powell has
prepared some advice for the hundreds
of girls who are participating in this
contest.
The girl who wins the Hollywood
HoteI additions" Powell said. will
have to be able to sing popular songs
and do an acceptable job OF acting
before the microphone-that is, she
will have to do all her acting vocally.
I imagine the girl who wins the local
additions at each OF the So Columbia
stations. where the contest is being
held, will be the one who gets up
before the mike and sings with perfect
nAturalneSs
She won't try TO put on any airs
She won't use any Alterations of the
voice. She won't try any vocal stunts.
She will remember that il she wins
she will be playing the part Of hat
check girl in a big hotel, a typical,
wise cracking, healthy American girl.
Imagine such girl in real life. II
she happens to be singing at her work,
do you think she will strain her vocal
chords to reach some spectacular
closing note that isn't even written
into the song she is singing? Do you
think she would adopt a pronunciation
and accent completely at variance
with that OF her normal speaking
voice? Well. the girl who plays the
part in Hollywood Hotel will have to
create the illusions Of real life. She
will be better able to do that, eSpeci-
ally in her singing, If she remains just
her own natural self"
