XIV. CONVENTION PROGRAMS AND ANNUAL REPORTS, 1927-1997

Convention programs and annual reports of the state federation, some of which are annotated.

From 1927 to 1941 the annual report and program were published separately. Included are the programs from 1927 to 1941 and the annual reports from 1934 to 1941. Beginning in 1942 the program and reports appear together in a single volume. In addition to committee reports, reports from the local clubs are given. Beginning in 1941, the federation's newsletter, Chat, which gave news of local clubs, was included in the program. Chat became know as New Jersey Business Woman in 1966. From 1967, it was not printed in the convention program, although news of the local clubs was still included.

Of particular interest is a 1969 special booklet in celebration of the federation's fiftieth anniversary. Also of interest are the nominees for Young Career Woman of the Year, which are included in the programs, sometimes with comments.

Lacking from this series are the annual reports for the years 1963/64, 1980/81, and 1982/83.
