JACKSON AND ROOSEVELT

Some folks who have nothing bet
ter to think about have queried what
President Roosevelt meant by asking
that the reviewing stand from which
he saw the inaugural parade should
be built on the lines of Andrew Jack
sons Tennessee home, the Hermitage.
Why, they ask, should Roosevelt hark
back to Jackson?
The answer is that in at least one
particular, the two men are strikingly
similar, and that there is a still closer
resemblance in the problems which
they faced.
The keynote Of the character Of
both men is courage; unbreakable
courage. Jackson showed his courage
in war, and Roosevelt showed his in
peace. The man now admittedly the
political and social leader Of America,
a few years ago was expected to spend
the rest of his life being lifted back
and forth between a couch and a
wheeled chair. For clear, long term
grit, Roosevelt's battle against paral-
ysis is not surpassed by anything,
even in the record Of Jackson.
The repeated elections of Jackson
and Roosevelt are alike victories won
by the common people Of America over
the economic royalists of a century
ago and now. Then, privilege chasers
who hated Jackson called themselves,
with becoming modesty, the rich, the
wise, the good" Now, privilege chas-
ers who hate Roosevelt call themselves
the Liberty League. The names are
different, but the natures are iden-
tical.
For another similarity, both Jack
son and Roosevelt had to deal with
nullifers; men who claimed the right
to nullify laws demanded by the peo-
pie, passed by congress, signed by the
President,
The nullifers of Jackson's day were
in South Carolina and the senate. The
nullifers of Roosevelt's day are in
Wall street and the supreme court
If Roosevelt whips his nullifers as
thoroughly as Jackson beat Calhoun
all will be well.

WHAT NEXT?

The latest in gasoline and oil serv-
ice stations is made of glass brick
and at night, well lighted inside, it
is a glorifed electric sign. The sta
ton is in Minneapolis Other such
stations are expected to be put up this
year. The cost Of building is higher
than the usual brick or concrete con
struction, but advertising gains are
expected to greatly outweigh the cost
over its lifetime.

T Where with our
roo Little Hatchet
we tell the truth
about many things, sometimes pro-
f0undly, sometimes fiippantly,
sometimes recklessIy. -.

So far as we know the earth still
rolls its way around the sun at the
same rate of speed as of old. Time
runs on, but such things remain as
they were, except for calculations too
fine for the average mind to grasp
But while the earth rolls along in
its accustomed way, things on the
outer surface of the shell of the earth
pick up their speed and do rata-a-
tat-tat in rising crescendo.
Like gun fire, first an occasional
shot, then quicker, then the steady
pump of a repeating rifle, then ma
chine gun, tearing away like blazes.
Think of this as you measure the
doings of this year. It will help you.
Issues appear, dailya and before
you know it they are white hot and
the crisis comes.
Think back. Nothing is as it was
before the World War. Again, moth
ing is as it was before Franklin D.
Roosevelt took office the first time.
In little less than four years our
whole national picture changed.
He has just taken office for a sec
ond term. The wiseacres speculate on
turns to the right, or to the left.

can preserve today's things as they

Congress, just now getting down to
work, viii enact legislation of which
ii may not now even dream. And some
of which it does dream.
One bill will be a low-cost housing
bill, brought forth by Senator Wag-
ner. Some know quite definitely what
will be in that bill, but nobody can
know the social changes that will fol-
low its enactment. They will sweep
from coast to coast and that's about
all that can be known for sure.
There will be industry control, of
some kind. But its effect? Who knows
that? Who can give US today the pic
ture?
Nobody
Nobody at all not even Roosevelt.
THIS year there are many maybes.
Very many.
General Motors, steel and coal are
said to be in alliance against labor,
ready for anything Maybe. But also
maybe that whole empire will be
unionized.
Sign Of the times: A union to-
| bacco manufactured big cor
poration puts a frankly union
labor program on the air for its

KNOWS the trend of the times
and goes along. How different

frankly pro-labor. The Mark Sulli
