Letter from the Iowa Federation of Women’s Clubs

A letter from the child labor committee of the Iowa Federation of Women’s Clubs asks that the enclosures concerning child labor be presented to members of other regional clubs. The General Federation of Women’s Clubs has asked that regional members report back. The letter discusses child labor laws and compulsory education laws in Iowa as well as in other states and emphasizes the importance of the Beveridge Child Labor Bill. The club asks that members write letters to senators and representatives, and that they ask their local ministers to preach on the topic. The letter is signed by club president Gertrude C. Russell Nash and other members.
