Chicago Man Held After Son's Death * Autopsy Is Ordered To Determine Cause Chicago, March 3 — (UP) — An autopsy and inquest were ordered today to determine whether a 2’4 year old boy died of natural causes or from a beating which his father admitted giving him to “break him of wetting the bed.” Raymond A. Rubart, a 28-year-old watchmaker, wa<s seized by ’ police after his son, Thomas Victor, died in West Suburban hospital at Oak Park last night. Doctors were examining the child’s body this morning to determine the cause of death. The .inquest was scheduled for this afternoon. Rubart told homicide officers and a representative of the Cook county state’s attorney’s office that he and his wife, Lorraine, 20, had been unable to break their eon of bed wetting. On Monday, Rubart said, Thomas awoke from his afternoon nap with the sheets in his crib wet once more. Rubart, who stands six feet tall and weighes 175 pounds, said ne took an “ordinary brown leather belt,” folded it once, and lashed the child across the back, stomach and legs “at least 20 times.” The child collapsed under the blows. “I picked him up and told him to stand up and take his medicine like a man,” police said Rubart told them. Mrs. Rubart, who is expecting another child, was asleep in another room at the time of the beating. Thomas went into convulsions shortly after he collapsed, Rubart said. Rubart took him to the office of an Oak Park doctor who warned him that the child should be taken immediately to a hospital. Rubart said he replied that he could not afford to pay hospital bills, particularly in view of his wife’s expected confinement. The child became worse yesterday and Rubart telephoned the doctor twice. On the last call, the doctor told him that Thomas had to
