The statement was given out after n

did not come as much of a surprise to
Milwaukee and Wisconsin politicians, as
il has long been known that the senior
Senator has contemplated for some time
becoming a candidate for the Presidency.
Further. as Senator La Toilette support

root to succeed him in the Senate, should
La Toilette be successful in the race for
the Presidential nomination.
LenreOt's strength in the State assem-

he is considered the logical successor to
