Ia TOILETTE IS
FILLING DAD S
PLACE
Young Bob" Now Senator,
Was Trained for Work by
Distinguished Father
nv KENNETH CLARK


A fathers dying hope is fulfilled
with the election Of Robert Marion
La Toilette, jr., to the United
States Senate.
Among the last feeble words OF
the late Senator La Toilette, for
forty years a belligerent in the ma
lions political arena, were just
these two:
Garry on"
They were spoken softly to the
family which gathered about the
bedside as life slipped slowly from
the aging figure. In that group
was Young Bob" dry-eyed, quiet,
attentive. The words were directed
to him who had been his fathers
favorite. and closest political ad-
wiser during the latter years.
1t was Bob" whom Senator La
Toilette had trained, and hoped and
prayed would carry on" to the
Senate, in the footpaths he had
followed, to the work he had at
tempted but left undone.
Senator La Toilette had q pre-
monition that the end was not far
distant. And SO he gave his last
days to fitting Bob for the work
at hand, to lead the fight, as ne
called it, ito free the people from
in government"
Now bob" has come from Ills
fatheKa grave TO the Senate, there
to carry on"
The present membership Of the
Senate may never quite ger used to
calling him Senator La Toilette.
These men have known him for
years as Bob, and have seen him,
youthful looking youth, Jay after
day helping his father, on the floor,
in the office, in conference.
The Senate always thought of
him as "just a youngster." secre-
tary of his father, to be sure, but
still, boy.
And .Bob'' is young-he's only
thirty, barely old enough to slip
into the Senate under the age limi-
tations. He was born in Madison,
February 6, 1895. He used to sit
on the knees of many Of the men
who now hail him as a colleague
in the nations highest legislative
tribunal.
People had a way of undertaking
Bob" because he was obscured by
his fathers eminence. The Repub-
lican national committee regarded
him somewhat as an echo of pa
ternal greatness, rather than dy-
manic little figure with marked
personality of his own-until
Bob" showed under the "stalwart"
candidate in the election. Now they
are reckoning him in an altogether
different light, not as heir appar-
ent," but as actual leader of that
militant progressive group in the
Senate which for so many years
under the elder La Toilette was a
thorn in the side Of the Admins
tration.
bob" is going to follow closely
in the work his father started,
but he isn't going to ape his sire;
he's not the sort who would try
that. an imitation, by the way,
which usually is paste rather than
pearl to the aspirant.
