sonians were in control, one faction of
the Federalist group decided upon the
plan of attempting to elect Aaron
Burr who had been a Jeffersonian
leader. Hamilton then threw his sup
port to Jefferson because, although he
greatly disliked Jefferson, he hated
Burr. In many letters to his friends,
Hamilton attacked Burr's character
in the strongest language and urged
Federalist support of Jefferson in the
election of the presidential electors.
Although the people had given a
clear mandate that they wanted JEFF
ferson for their President, the House
battled from Wednesday until the fol-
lowing Tuesday before a sufficient
majority was obtained to elect
Thomas Jefferson president. Burr
was elected vice president.

a great political scandal which the
JeffersOnians used to the best adj
vantage.
They also charged the Federalists
with favoring aristocracy and mon

In New York, the Jeffersonian fight
was led by Aaron Burr, who, although
man of aristocratic background, was
the Tammany leader of his day. Tam

strongest forces in Jefferson's party
Jefferson was attacked on the
ground that he was an atheist. An
other story which was circulated
about him was that he had accumu-
lated his property by rObbing a widow
and fatherless children of their estate
while acting as their executor.
Although these stories were totally
unfounded, they were contemplated to
have their effect in the election.

OBSERVATIONS
BY Cong. ELMER J. RYAN

Monday, April 13, was the anniver-
sary of the birthday of Thomas JEFF
ferson-the man who was the first
great political champion of the COM
mon people of America as against
those who claimed superior right
in governmental affairs because OF
their greater advantages in wealth
and education.
The long political struggle between
HamiltOn's Federalists and Jeffer-
sons Democrats at that time was as
bitter and as ruthless as any political
conflict that our nation has witnessed
since.
1t was in the campaign of 1906
when Jefferson was elected that the
intensity of the struggle between
these two great leaders best showed
itself.
Jefferson had a powerful organiza-
ton in almost every state. His
strength was with the small farmer
mechanic and laborer. The over pay.
Askov American. [volume] (Askov, Pine County, Minn.) 1914-current, 1936-04-23

pealed the law, but would have made
an exception in the case of the Black
committee in view of the fact that
the question of the power of Congress
and it's committees as against the
courts was directly affected. But con-
sentative groups on both sides of the
aisle succeeded in pounding it down
by twO-tO-one vote, even after a
special rule had been adopted for its
consideration. And. as stated, some
members were exceedingly bitter in
their denunciation of the committees
procedure in taking the copies of
kilograms from the files of the tele-
graph companies and scanning them
for evidence of corrupt or improper
lobbying tactics.
The House action was naturally a
shock to observers and to the Senate
committee, but it is not an accurate
index of House feeling toward the
work of the Senate group. since the
reactionary groups in both parties
combined with large group of law
yers who, although friendly to the
continued work, felt they should OPP
pose the resolution on constitutional
grounds.

POLICE TRAIL
VET BY BONUS

His enthusiasm cooled after re-
ceiving several hundred dollars in
bonus bonds from the postman
yesterday, Walter G. Terrell. At,
today was awaiting action of po-
lice on a charge that he forged a
$40 check more than a year ago.
A few minutes after the post
man delivered 5000 in bonds to
him at his home in the 200 block
Eye st. N. W., Detective Sergt.
Gene Davis, head of the bad check
squad, arrested him on warrant
sworn to by Francis j. Grilley, an
attorney, who claimed Terrell
forged his signature on March 80,
1885.
After looking for him Is months,
police recently traced Terrell
through his bonus application.
Terrell, who was gassed in Ar
gonne Forest 18 years ago and
received the Order of the Purple
Heart, turned his bonds over to
his family and surrendered to po-
lice, who are arranging for a
hearing in Police Court.

In the face of repeated rebuffs
by the Supreme Court, the Ad-
miniStration today touched off a
last minute offensive to enact new
industrial regulatory acts before
Congress adjourns.
Under heavy pressure from Or
ganized labor, and with a weather
eye to the huge labor vote in No
vember, Democratic leadership
gave priority to these two meas
ureS:
/. The Guffey coal substi-
tute, setting up price-fixing in
the bituminous industry.
2. The Healey government
contract bill, requiring a 40
hour maximum work week and
minimum wages in industry sup
plying government materials.
An Administration must" meas
ure, the Guffey substitute, which
was introduced after the recent
decision of the Supreme Court
finding labor regulatory provi-
sionS in the original act unconsti.
tutional, was given first place on
the House calendar today.
The substitute measure would
reenact price-fixing provisions Of
the original act, not covered in
the Supreme Court decision.

Tenth Street, Southeast. sat on
it's front steps last night eager to
see the most popular man in that
area-PoStman Joseph Richard
Hughes. Everybody on Tenth
Street knows Mr.. Hughes as Joe"
and Joe" knows everybody on
Tenth Street for Joe" lives right
around the corner at 1861 East
Capitol st.
But last night "Joe," popular as
he is, really became king for a
day. In his brown leather pouch
he carried bonus bonds for which
some rs of his customers" had
waited 18 years.
Word spread through the neigh
borhood that Joe" had arrived
about six o'clock and his progress
down Tenth Street could be easily
traced by the two dozen youngsters
who trooped at his heels as the
veterans signed receipts and ex-
hibited discharge papers and other
identifications.
"AUUW Disappointed
"Joe" only refused TO hand over
the precious envelope to one man
"a newcomer whose landlady
could not vouch for his identifi-
cation. The veteran was appleased,
however, when Joe" explained
how the matter could be straight
ened out,
Mrs. Enrico Sabato Aufieri was
disappointed because the envel-
ope bore the name of her husband
who died a month ago. Postman
Hughes quieted her fears by point
ing out that the technicality could
be rectified at the Veterans Ad-
miniStration.
Anxious as they we're to get their
bonus bonds, a score of "Joe's"
patrons had to face the fact that
the night shift at the Navy Yard
has a time clock which had to be
punched. Joe" promised wives
and relatives of the night workers
that he would be back today with
the bonds.

Two former yeomanettes on
"Joe's" route received their bonds.
They were Miss Maude Anderson

SENATE, HOUSE
DUE T0AGREE
ON RELIEF
BY EDWARD b. LOCKETT
international News Service

Senate and House members seek
ing agreement on the pending re-
lief-deficiency bill-one of the two
controversies delaying adjourn
ment-today drove toward a COM
promise suitable to both houses Of
Congress.
Members Of both Senate and
House groups reported signal prog
ess, and predicted success by night
fall. They met at $50 a. m, de-
termined to keep on working until
the job is done.
One major difference between
House and Senate forms of the
bill has been settled-that involv-
ing handling of the $1,425, ,000, 900
relief fund embraced in the meas
ure. House confereeS have &C.
cepted the Senate version, placing
control of the big relief appropria-
tion directly in the hands Of
President Roosevelt. AS the bill
passed the House, this was to be
handled by Works Progress Admin
SGTdGOT marry F1OpAALAo.
Center of Hot Fights
Three provisions not in the
House bill, but included in the
Senate measure, today were the
center of hot fights, with a fourth
Senate amendment already slated
to go back to the House proper for
a decision.
First of all, there was still dis
agreement over a 300-million-dol-
lar fund which the Senate made
available to Public Works Admin
istrator Harold L. Ickes. House
conferees were reported opposed
to this, with Senate members
fighting for it's retention.
Secondly, there was a battle
over a 57-million-dollar reclama-
ton item which the Senate in
serted. House members fought
this. There was a chance that
this controvers might be
smoothed out today by House
action on another measure, carry
ing proposals for insertion of the
items there.
Lastly, there was friction over
the Senate's action in making a
fund of $85, 100000 in the bill
available to Resettlement Admin
iStrator Rexford Tugwell.
Ship Canal Included
The fourth item, which con-
ferces have virtually agreed must
be acted upon by the entire House,
was an amendment looking to re-
vival of the twice. whipped Florida
ship canal project. The Senate
inserted in the relief deficiency
bill provision permitting PreSi-
dent Roosevelt to use some of the
relief money to carry this on, If
q board of engineers determines
that the project is feasible.
This will be included in the con-
ference report finally turned out
by the representatives of the two
houses. Then, when the confer
ence report comes up in the House
for acceptance or rejection, sep
arate vote is expected on the ship
canal project. A House vote re-
jecting this, leaders conceded,
would scrap the proposal.

day did the last thing anyone ex-

note:

Then he climbed to the attic
and hanged himself from the
rafters.
Unemployed for months and the
loser of his home by foreclosure,
police believe the sudden turn Of
fortune unbalanced him.
Another veteran, Harry Kelly,
died, too, by one of the strangest
breaks of fortune the bonus
brought. He took his money and
went out to see the sights. Early
today a relative heard him fall
down the basement stairs. Kelly
