Biographical notes:

The League of Women Voters of Pennsylvania was established in 1920, a successor organization to the Pennsylvania Woman Suffrage Association, with the purpose of providing "education to increase the effectiveness of women voters and to further better government." In biennial conventions the Pennsylvania League established its "Program," the issues selected for study, decision and action. State Programs have been concerned with constitution reform, legislative apportionment, election laws, education, welfare, environment, city and town planning.
