Fair Practices Bill Approved in Wisconsin Senate
The Wisconsin senate approved a fair employment practices bill aimed at preventing discrimination in employment based on race or color. The measure, a substitute for harsher penalties, sets up a seven member commission to work with the industrial commission on investigations, with governor appointing members. The body also killed a bill ordering brown oleomargarine in public eating places and concurred in provisions for veterans' services and automatic cost of living adjustments for city salary scales. The senate also approved suspending a doctor's license for two years for immoral or unprofessional conduct, replacing mandatory revocation.
