V. REPORTS OF COMMITTEES AND OFFICERS, 1923-1994 (with gaps).

Reports of the state officers (including the president), standing and special committee chairwomen which were presented at regular meetings of the State Board. These reports, both typed and handwritten, form the basis of the published annual reports which appeared in the annual convention program. Committee functions included fund raising, education, awarding scholarships and prizes, legislation, setting the convention agenda, publicity, nominating officers, liaison with local clubs, membership, and emblem (the federation's logo). The series also includes reports of ad hoc committees such as health and safety, civil defense (from the early 1950s) and traffic safety (1960).

Of particular interest are the reports of the legislative chairman, which summarize the federation's agenda on both the state and national levels. The federation constantly lobbied for the equal rights amendment, as well as for the repeal of protective legislation, equal legal status, and equal employment opportunities for women. Also of interest are the reports of the membership committee chairman. The federation was constantly monitoring membership and trying to attract new members, particularly among young women.

After 1986, reports are filed with the minutes, with the exception of 1993-1994.
