COUNCIL MEETINGS,, 1946-1966.

Summary: Documentation of meetings of the Council, a body made up of the presidents of local leagues and State Board members. The Council was founded in 1946 after the reorganization of the League and met quarterly until 1960. It had the power to make modifications in the State Program which had been found to be appropriate by the local leagues, and to adopt a budget in non-convention years. In 1955, it became an advisory rather than a policy-making body. Usually only seven or eight members attended. Beginning in 1960, the Council met every two years. It was discontinued in 1967.

Includes reports, programs, agendas, minutes, correspondence, memoranda, budgets and supporting documents.

Subjects discussed include State Board finances, vacancies on State Board committees, Board meetings, nominations of officers, plans for the state convention, raising of money and the management of the state headquarters.
