Wisconsin Households Seek End to Colored Oleo Ban
Wisconsin lawmakers face a growing drive to repeal the ban on colored oleo as smugglers, truckers, and dairy groups shape the debate. A Sheboygan grandmother’s biannual cross border runs illustrate lax enforcement and public demand rises led by Mrs. R. V. Anderson and the Wisconsin Federation of Women's Clubs.
