Commissioner Seeks Fair Housing Law for Wisconsin
MILWAUKEE AP Mathias Schimenz, chairman of the State Industrial Commission, urged Wisconsin to pass an adequate and fair housing law to end discriminatory practices. He argued the commission already has housing authority, and advised groups to pursue formal legislation. He noted current law covers housing and education discrimination but ties employment to a separate statute. A probe into a case involving an unidentified Negro couple may test the commission’s authority.
