Old Hickory'>>~C Champion of the
Common People.

ecstatlc crowd that surged about him,
mounted horse and rode amid an
escort of triumphant friends to the
White House followed by a multitude
of men, women, and children on foot,
in wagons, and in bVggies Since they
were all going to the Peoples house,
the doors were naturally left open to
the people. They swarmed into the
Presidents reception and some of
them very voraciously ate the good
things that were offered.
They jostled one another and the
''boiled shirt" grandees also; they
greedily snatched the refreshments
that were passed around, knocking
dishes, glasses, and plates onto the
rugs; they laughed, shouted and
cheered; they even climbed up on the
soft-cushioned chairs and delicately
upholstered scttees to see their adored
Old Hickory. The congestion was so
great that the President eventually re-
tired through a window, and when the
crowds finally left, the White House
was very far from tidy.
The people showed by their bolster
BUSINESS that they knew they were in
power. For the first time in history,
common men and women who worked
with their hands, had, by regular vot-
ing, acquired complete control over
their governmental least that is
how they felt.
Who was that erect, picturesque,
brusk, soldier-farmer they had chosen
to be their Moses? Well, John Quincy
Adams, retiring President, called him
"a barbarian who could not write a
sentence of grammar and hardly
could spell his own name" That was
bitter, vindictive and distorted APP
praisal. But in fact Andrew Jackson
had almost no formal education, and
his grammar did leave much to be de-
sired
Born amid very humble surround
ings in North Carolina, he was left
an orphan as young boy, and had
been obliged to relic exclusively upon
his own energy and ability. He joined
rough hardy pioneers in the woods of
! Tennessee which were just being
settled, and made his way upward
among bold, aggressive, self-reliant
frontier men. He was a lawyer and
Judge, though he never knew very
much about law He was real estate
agent and got himself a good piece Of
land, which is still delight to the
eye. He was an unsuccessful store
keeper and a good farmer. He had
won some political distinction of a
local nature and had been a very eff
fectivc soldier. Soldering indeed was
his one valid title to fame at the time
of his election. He had won a notable
victory over a large, experienced and
able British army near New Orleans.
He knew practically nothing about
finances, was ignorant of foreign af-
fairs, and had completely failed as an
administrator of the territory of Flor
ida, He was impulsive. emotional,
moved by personal prcjudices and die
tatorial. He liked to shoot and was
vigorous in name-calling. His apron
ent for the office of President was
from a very distinguished and noble
family, was eXcellently educated, eX-
perienccd, and sincerely devoted to the
! interests of all the American people,

London, Sept. 25-(UP)-Hun- gary's war minister has resigned after -our years in office rather than cooperate in a German de- mand for more Hungarian troops for the Russian front and occupa- ton forces in Jugoslavia, diplomatic quarters reported today.
 Budapest admitted last night the resignation of War Minister Gen. Karl Bartha De Dalnokfalva "at his own request" and announced that Col. Gen. Wilhelm Nagy, retired, succeeded.
 It was believed here that Bartha'S resignation was directly due to urgenL German demands on Hun gary, Rumania, Bulgaria and Italy for immediate endorsements in troops, especially because of the frightful Axis casualties on the Russian front but also because of the seething situation throughout Jugoslavia where patriot army has the initiative at many points.
 Bartha, graduate of the Austro- Hungarian military academy at Vienna, served through the last World War. He was an officer of the general staff for inspection of

 Gross Negligence
