La Follette blasts Wisconsin dairy and food policy shift
Senator Robert M. La Follette assailed the Philipp administration's dairy and food bureau in Monroe, charging that a shift to gentle admonition and form-letter warnings has replaced the prior, vigorous enforcement. He cited department records showing low inspection-to-prosecution rates and far fewer convictions than under Commissioner Emery, arguing this reversal harms public protection against adulterated foods.
