NucIeor Worship for Jackson

The glory that was Greece
and the grandeur that was
Rome. like that Of cotton and
rice. was built on Q slave
foundation. Much Of the
stimulus behind the magnifi-
cent civilization Of the Greeks
came from slave teachers.
Andrew Jackson knew that.
There was Q sort Of rage In
him to improve the lot Of the
frontier people. 10 tighten
their load Of work and iso-
lation from some Of the COM
forts Of life. He was the first
So-called peoples man to en-
ter the White House. He
owned slaves. He left no
comment on the peculiar In
stitution." The written in-
structions to his overseer re-
main. Jackson was gone much
Of the time. The letter Il di-
rict. jackson was q firm man.
The overseer was directed
to treat them with great
humanity. feed and clcths
them well. and work them
In moderation"
IF this rule Is violated"
Jackson wrote, 'the overaeer
is to be discharged forth
with" One such man. Graves
Steele, was summarily dis
missed from his job while
Jackson was in Washington
as President.
The Hermitage testifies to
Jackson's search for new ap-
proaches, techniques. and
methods. One recalls George
Washington, whiting false
teeth out Of hard wood and
suffering nightly from them.
Thomas Jefferson'S unique
labor-saving inventions in
stalled at Monticello, his in
terest in seed selection and
new agricultural methods, are
another wen known illustra-
ton Of the unceasing search.
A nuclear ship named fer
Andrew Jackson Is by no
means out of keeping with
the mans restless searching
nature.

The Formula for Creating Peace


The only fear in Europe is
the possibility that the Ger
man-Franco unity may be
too late. II the great United
States knuckles under to the
Castro threat and the East
German threat. the fear is
that the whole free world will
crumble before the unity Of
Europe can become a real
force.
European military men,
looking at past Washington
performances, are not opti-
niistic. Had President Kenne-
dy, who has given proof Of
personal courage in the bat
ties Of the Pacific. only dared
to send air cover to protect
the Cuban rebels when they
invaded their homeland, we
would not have q Castro
problem today.
Had he dared, as some Of
the Pentagon generals sug-
gested. to send tanks to break
through the barbed war en-
tanglements which were q,
prelude to the Berlin wall.

have been entirely different.

Noming Of Vessel for Early President
Appropriate to His Searching Nature

The visitor, going through
the rooms, can see on dis
play some Of JackSon's letters
and papers.
There was q sort Of sim
plicity in the lives Of people
in the Jackson era. They did
not control their lives, but
they came close to It. Their
possessions were Of their
making. The carriage In
which Jackson rode to WASH
ington for his Inauguration
as president Is still there. II
was built by . carriage-mak-
er. But 1t was repaired on
the place. The iron tires"
were produced, and placed. by
a blacksmith. 1t never failed
to start.
There were no electric
lights in the Hermitage to
fail or bulbs to burn out
Candles were made on the
place. They grew their own
food and fiber. Clcth was
woven there. They bred
horses and mules. The house
was built with timbers hewn
and bricks made from clay
from nearby hills.
There Is the temptation to
say it was an idyllic life. It
was not. At the Hermitage,
and all over frontier Amer
lea, there was O striving
toward whatever would lift
the burden Of work off hui
man backs, techniQues which
would make for more eff
cheney in plowing. harvesting.
storage of crops. There were
unknown diseases, ignorant
doctors, few books, and o Sc
verify in much Of the daily
life.
jackson was never of the
mind Of some Of those in the
later years Of pillared man
sions on cotton or rice plan
tations who talked Of their
civilizations as being close to
that Of the ancient Greeks.

A nuclear-powered naval
vessel has been named for
Andrew Jackson. In . sense
this inserts him into our time
and thoughts. His name will
travel the seas Of the world.
In foreign ports men win see
the ship powered by energy
obtained from the splitting Of
atoms and will, ask about
Andrew Jackson.
For O Tennessean the name
stirs close memories. At his
Hermitage" q few miles out
of Nashville, one can see not
merely q house, beautiful in
the simplicity Of its design,
but an indication Of the gen.
eral, aesthetic values. No pro-
fessional architect had a hand
in the Hermitage. It was q
product Of Jackson's mind
and an effort to produce q
home that would please his
wife Rachel. In a sense, the
beauty Of the II Hermitage
symboiizes what jackson saw
in his wife.
There is Q peace and tran
quillity about the place which
contrasts with the lives Of
both. Neither jackson nor
Rachel experienced much
quiet or peace of mind.
Jackson was not, as some
legends have it. an uncouth
man. He was . product Of
the frontier. The frontier
was rough, and crude. But
it was not necessarily un-
couth. It was q test. Men
were either direct, devious or
timorously obscure.
Old Hickory was direct
very much the individualist.

nalism Of the time, frustrated
by its inability to tarnish

The Supreme Court, about to
reconverae for . new term, has
been asked to rule that States
must afford Negroes equal serv-
ice at all places Of public

The plea came in a brief filed
yesterday by lawyers for five

The students, who sought to
ride . merry-go-round at the
park In 1850, were told to leave

was fined $50. m

FoiIure of so Per Cent of EIigibIes
To Vote Called DepIorobIe DefouIt

Less than 50 per cent Of
the eligible voters went to the
polls in Massachusetts, on
Tuesday TO vote IN the DEM
ocratic and Republican pri-
maries for United States
Senator.
Why don't more people vote
In the primaries-and why do
they let the political ma
chimes get out the vote and
virtually control the primary
elections?
The answer isn't to be
found in the figures them
selves.
Thus, in Massachusetts,
only two years ago the then
Senator Kennedy polled L.
4S7,174 votes against Richard
Nixon's s76,7S0 in the presi-
Dental race.
In the same election, Sena-
tor Leverett SaltonstaIl, Re-
publican, won re election
with l,35s.55e votes-nearly
400. 700 more than Mr.. Nixon.
But even the De mocratic
nominee for the Senate,
Mayor Thomas J. O'Connor
Of Springfield, polled 1885,
725 votes. which Is $4,000
more votes than both Teddy
Kennedy and Eddie McCor--
mack together received In the
primaries this week, as their
combined total was only
about 500, 100 votes. =
In the Republican primary,
the situation was even more
striking. For, while George
Cabot Lodge defeated Repre-
sentative Laurence Curtis by
about 1880 votes, the total
Republican vote was only
about az, 800.
This means that only S3
per cent Of the vote cast In
November, 1860, for the sue
cessful senatorial nominee
Senator saltonstall-was re-
corded at the polls this week
by both Republica q n as
pirants. In the Democratic
primary this year the vote
cast was equal to about n
per cent Of what the unsuc-
cessful senatorial nominee
polled In 1880.
The comparisons between
the primary contests In 1860
and 1852 are even more re-
vealing. Two years ago there
was another spirited race for

Supreme Court to Hear
Glen Echo RocioI Case

States may not enforce Q policy
of racial segregation" Justice
Douglas said.
In the brief filed yesterday,
lawyers In the Glen Echo case
sought 10 show the State Of
Maryland was involved In the
parks operation and in its al
legged discrimination. The park
guard who told the students
to leave was Q county special
deputy sheriff. This. plus the
later prosecutions constituted
improper state support Of seq
regation, the brief said.
The States interest In In.
specting, regulating and licens-
ing places Of public aecommoda-
ton. the brief maintained,
signified recognition Of q "vi-
tai public interest" in them.
The brief said state may not
consistent with Fourteenth
Amendment guarantees, permit
racial discrimination at such
places. The Glen Echo Park
desegregated In 1861.
Common Law Cited
The State Of Maryland, in
urging the high court not to
hear the case. had said the
common law ives settled that
operators Of private enterprises
could select their clientele.
The Glen Echo case Is one
Of seven race cases which the
Supreme Court on the last day
Of the 1eel.62 term agreed to
hear after 1t reconvenes Octo-
Der j for its new term.
The high court agreed to
hear trespass eases from North
Carolina, South Carolina and
Alabama. The court also has
been asked to consider Virginia
trespass cases.

other trespass case before the

the Democratic senatorial
nomination, and the vote was
divided among three candi-
dates. All Of them together
polled 55s,700 as compared
with e06.60 for both the
Democratic nominees this
year. Yet, in the final elec-
ton for Senator in 1850
there were 1,0s0,725 Demo-
Gratis recorded, and this
wasn't enough to win. Sena-
tor Saltcnstall was re-elect-
ed with 1,35s,55e votes. He
had been unopposed in the
primaries.
The Massachusetts, results
in the primary election Of
Tuesday show that neither
party picked an experienced
legislator as its candidate for
the Senate. The Republicans
passed over Mr.. Curtis, 50, o
man Of maturity and good
Judgment who is serving his
fifth term in the United
States House Of Representa-
tives.
II the previous system of
election Of United states
Senators by . majority vote
Of the legislature had been
in effect. probably none Of
the candidates in either par
ty in Massachusetts this week
would have had . chance ex-
cept Mr.. Curtis. For in past
history only persons with
long and creditable service in

or perhaps at times the Gov
erpor of q State would have
been considered as q probable
nominee py either party In
the State legislature.
The system Of direct elec-

tors, and nomination either
by primaries or nominating
conventions. has turned out
TO be one that 10 readily

don't bother about primaries,
