Daylight Saving Referendum Set
| The photo caption states in full: "Gov. Vernon W. Thomson had an audience of six daylight saving time advocates when he signed into law the bill setting up a mandatory referendum on the issue for April 2nd. Left to right are: first row, Gov. Thomson, Lester Olseen, and Clarence Muth, and, in the second row: Lester Brann, and Assemblymen Earle Fricker (R-Milwaukee), Glen Pommerening (R-Wauwatosa), Harvey Abraham (R-Oshkosh)." The photo caption continues: "the three assemblymen are authors of the bill and the other three represent the Milwaukee Assn. of Commerce, which is opening a 'get-out-the-vote' drive in support of daylight saving time. If Wisconsin voters approve on April 2nd, the state will go on daylight saving time each summer, beginning April 29." |
