MADISON, Wis, Nov Belle Case La Toilette has pointed the way of political success to her sec ond son as she did for his elder brother and their father.
 The judgment and wisdom of the widow of Robert M. La Toilette, the senior, is credited with importance in the Republican primary cam paign which started Philip F. La Toilette on the pathway to the Wis consin governorship.
 Mrs. La. Follettes husband called her his counselor and freely ad- mitted the aid her faith and fore sight gave.
 Philip, 33, defeated Gov. Walter J. Koiiier in the primary. Two years ago Kohler attained promi- hence by splitting the La Toilette delegation to the national conven- ton, and then defeating the pro- gressive candidate for the gover- ship. The elder son, appointed t' fill the unexpired term of his fath- CT when he died, in 1925, was elect ed to the office two years later. He now is 35. Mrs. La Toilette was urged to seek the office her hus- band left but she preferred to see Robert M, jr., occupy it.
 Mrs. LaFollette and her husband were sweethearts at the University of Wisconsin in the early 80s. Both were graduated from the law school, she the first woman in the state. She was an advisor in all his politi- cal campaigns, for district attorney ship of Dane county, for Congress, for Governor, for the Senate and finally for the Presidency in 1924
 There is much like both mother and father in the two sons. Robert

KETCHIKAN, Nov I'm a state- ment made yesterday George B. Grigsby, Democratic nominee for Delegate to Congress, accused Judge Wickersham of prevarication in his Juneau speech. He also declared that Wickersham's desperate per- sonal attack on him was prompted by knowledge that he was off the map" and about to be defeated. He did not dare to make any such statements at any place where I followed him."

The telegram from Congress- man E. L. Davis of Tennessee, pub- lished in The Empire October 2, 1920, specifically states that my brief referred to the Alaska pro- vision

TuttIe's Socialist Daughter
 Points for Politics
By ADELAIDE KERR (A.GP. Staff Writer)

NEW YORK, Nov. 1.-American politics IS years hence may find among its ranks slim blonde feminine member of the Futile clan, whose chief has just been nomi- mated governor for New York on the Republican ticket.
 For Charlotte, 20-year -old social istic daughter of Charles H. Tut tue, loves that word politics by her own admission and hopes to make her mark in it some day.
 She has already made her mark as. student of political science at vassar, where she will be graduated this spring.
 A year ago last summer, in the interest of her socialistic studies, she forsook tennis courts, which are her second love, hied herself to Chicago and went to work in a book factory to earn first hand about conditions which she had been reviewing.
 She worked all summer inserting leaves in books, earned SIP to SIS a week-and lived on it.
 She capped that experience by addressing a mass meeting in the New York YWCA last winter, urg- ing unionization of Fifth Avenue dressmaking shop employees. Papa Futile was in the audience.
 No, he didn't object" said Char lotte. T think he was sort of pleas ed and amused"
 This summer she went to Europe, where she spent several weeks in the Seminar of Madariaga at Ge- neva, and had more than one dis cussion of socialistic problems with Arthur Henderson, Great Britain's Labor foreign secretary, while they had tea on the Parliament. House terrace in London.
 Charlotte Futile is petite and pert and pretty; she is as feminine as ruffles and her frocks are bright and smart. Women will keep on being homemakers, she opines, but first and last they have to think about things outside.
