Without bene'fit of the usual ballyhoo it has crept into its place as a feature presentation and stands alone in its own power as a film of irai merit and strength. Starring Van Hefitn as -Andrew Johnson, who succeeded Lincoln as President of the United States, it pictures the great leader's career from his strugglying early days through the stormy period of the American civil war and the equally stormy period following it. The mam body of the film, however, deals with this latter part and Johnson's battle with one of the northern senators, played by Lionel Barrymore, who wishes to treat the members of the rebel states as virtual slaves for the next hundred years. But Johnson with his own firm convictions and the words of Abraham Lincoln still ringing in his ears, realizes that the Union tan neer be re-established on such trims As a result of Johnson's firm stand the senator's enmity lead him to bring the impeachment proceedings against the President The picture has many stirring moments, and with its background of the forging of a nation's unity has much to say that is pertinent to the problems of today.

President Johnsons battlecry "United stand, divided we fall," was undoubtedly meant to carry weight with Americans and their allies of the present. Van Hefliu docs a remarkably fine job as the President from Tennessee, and Ruth Hussey backs him with able support as the girl who helped to shape his destiny. Also in the cast are Marjorie Mam. Regis Toomey. Montague Love and Lynne Carver.
