La Follette Independent Bid Sparks National Talk
Washington reports explain Senator La Follette intends to run for president on an independent ticket. Petitions seek La Follette electors, a move seen as likely to draw votes from Coolidge or push the election to the House, risking chaotic outcomes and possible Senate decision. Critics say the motive includes revenge and GOP turmoil. Congress faces naval spending and two probes into prohibition enforcement, with party leadership divided over responsibility and enforcement strategy.
