Wisconsin hears late oath on oleomargarine repeal
In Madison Wisconsin the first month of legal oleomargarine sales drew little uproar. Stores report steady movement while premium butter remains available. The repeal of the 1895 ban passed 67 to 30 in the Assembly and 19 to 10 in the Senate. A 55 cent a pound tax funds a UW dairy research facility and will be lifted in 1972. Dairymen largely accept the change as imports rise in concern rather than local backlash.
