League of Women Voters, Pullman, Records, 1950-1980
The records of the League of Women Voters were donated in 1982 to the Washington State University Libraries. The collection was arranged and described by Lisa Bassett in April 1988.
HISTORY
League of Women Voters-Pullman was organized in February 1950. In 1952 it became a chartered local league. Each year the League studies and acts on local, state and national governmental issues. The League may take a stand on an issue after careful study, but it never supports or opposes either political party or any candidates. Financial support comes from League programs, membership dues and contributions. In its first two years the League started a survey that focused on local issues. This study resulted in a pamphlet entitled "Know Your Town." In this pamphlet the League promoted greater community action. The goals have remained consistent with those ideas in subsequent years of activity.
ARRANGEMENT AND DESCRIPTION
The records are arranged in single sequence of alphabetical
subject files. This arrangement was developed at the WSU Libraries;
the records were largely unarranged when received.
