La Follette Roars Against Trust Growth in U S Senate
A lengthy critique contrasts La Follette with Theodore Roosevelt and William Howard Taft, citing trust expansion under Roosevelt and Perkins as a Roosevelt ally. It notes Perkins ties to Northern Securities, Standard Oil, and New York Life, and references a Stanley committee extract detailing a $50,000 donation. The piece shifts to Panama's Old City ruins and Panama Canal interests, then comments on Senator Kenyon's Taft stance and perceived smoothness.
