1919réf. 149951919. National Federation of Business and Professional Women's Clubs plaque 1919 commemorates the founding year of a national organization created to coordinate and advance the interests of business and professional women. Established on July 16 1919 after wartime efforts to identify women's professional skills and experience the Federation developed from organizing associated with the Women's War Council and the mobilization of women workers during World War I. Its formation preceded ratification of the Nineteenth Amendment in 1920 and placed questions of women's employment professional advancement and political participation within a national organizational structure. Large bronze embossed seal of the National Federation of Business and Professional Women's Clubs mounted on wood and dated 1919. The Federation was organized at its first national convention in St. Louis in July 1919 under the leadership of Lena Madesin Phillips with Gail Laughlin elected its first national president. Early Federation work included a national survey of business and professional women addressing their status qualifications opportunities and working conditions providing an organized basis for advocacy concerning women's economic and professional life. The plaque dates from the Federation's founding year when women were entering professional occupations in greater numbers while still lacking federally protected voting rights nationwide. The organization continued to advocate on issues affecting working women and to promote professional development leadership and economic opportunity. The bronze seal mounted on wood survives as an organizational artifact from the Federation's establishment in 1919 one year before ratification of the Nineteenth Amendment extended constitutional protection for women's suffrage nationwide. unknown books
1936réf. 160251936. National Woman's Party. Equal Rights March 15 1936 documents the organization's campaign for legal equality at a time when women's workplace legislation divided American feminists over whether sex-specific protections advanced or restricted women workers. Founded in 1916 by Alice Paul and Lucy Burns during the suffrage campaign the National Woman's Party continued after ratification of the Nineteenth Amendment by advocating the Equal Rights Amendment then commonly associated with the Lucretia Mott Amendment and by opposing laws that imposed legal distinctions based solely on sex. This issue addresses the New York minimum wage controversy international equal-rights efforts and proposed workplace protections for women and children. National Woman's Party. Equal Rights. Vol. 22 No. 6. March 15 1936. 4 pages. 8 1/2 x 11 inches. Official organ of the National Woman's Party. The issue reports on the New York minimum wage case after the New York Court of Appeals struck down the state law regulating minimum wages for women; the United States Supreme Court subsequently affirmed that judgment in Morehead v. New York ex rel. Tipaldo on June 1 1936. It also discusses the Equal Rights Treaty signed at Montevideo by Cuba Ecuador Paraguay and Uruguay part of the National Woman's Party's effort to establish sex equality in international law. Another article addresses workplace hygiene and a resolution requiring employers to provide women with separate quarters for washing changing clothes and general use as well as seats for women and children when the work did not require them to remain standing. Published two years before enactment of the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 the issue records a central dispute in interwar women's rights politics: whether legislation written specifically for women offered necessary labor protection or created legal distinctions that could restrict women's employment and undermine demands for equal rights. The National Woman's Party pursued the latter argument while simultaneously campaigning internationally for legal equality between the sexes. The March 1936 issue therefore preserves contemporary evidence of the relationship among the Equal Rights Amendment campaign minimum wage litigation international treaty advocacy and debates over sex-specific workplace regulation.
