League Activities
Presented Board
Board members of the Jack
son County League of Women
Voters, meeting last Tuesday
evening at the home of the pres
ident, Mrs. Justin Smith, were
brought up-to-date on national
and state activities of the
league.
From national officers it was
learned that matters of foreign
policy, pre election activities
and inflation control would re
ceive the major attention of
league leaders in the coming
weeks. Writing on pre-election
activities, one officer said "it
is the function of every league
member to try to create in in
different and apathetic citizens
a sense of responsibility for
taking part in government; it
is also the function of every
league member to help citizens
to know, for instance, when,
where and what elections are
being held and something of
the issues."
Included in the discussion of
matters of local interest was
material concerning a petition
to raise by special taxation
funds for a new county home
and hospital.
