add to cart   close window

Democratic slatemakers of Illinois finally those Lieutenant Colonel Paul H. Douglas as the party's candidate for the United States Senate. Douglas's participation in professional politics, as distinguished from public service, is of relatively recent origin. It was not until 1939, after many years of distinguished service as professor of industrial relations at the University of Chicago, as writer, as consultant on unemployment, labor problems, and social legislation that he made his first bid for public office.
