The Negro Vote in the South. A Southern Woman's Viewpoint [suffrage flyer]
NWSA flyer containing an essay by Mrs. Guilford Dudley of Nashville, TN. Mrs. Dudley addresses the fear among white Southern Congressmen that if all women are given the vote through a Federal Suffrage Amendment, the increase in black voting power will be detrimental to the nation. Dudley notes the success of "educational tests" that limit black voter registration. For similar arguments with regard to compulsory education, see "Need of Compulsory Education in the South."

Venereal disease bulletin, no. 54. Public health pamphlet arguing that prostitution spreads venereal disease and cannot be "segregated, licensed, and made sanitary." Excerpt: "But every investigating committee that has reported on conditions in any large American city has condemned the whole buisness, although its members were often in favor of segregation when they began to investigate. The American army has tried all systems. General Pershing writes: Many of us who have experimented with licensed prostitution or kindred measures, hoping thereby to minimize the physical evils, have been forced to the conclusion that they are really ineffective, Abraham Flexner has argued the case so convincingly that on the scientific side it seems to me there is no escape from the conclusion that what he terms 'abolition' as distinguished from 'regulation' is the only effective mode combating this age-long evil. Don't be misled by underworld arguments. The Evidence is all against the red light."

No Forced Labor Camps for American Youth! [American Student Union pamphlet]
Pamphlet published by the American Student Union, a national left-wing organization of college students active in the 1930s. The group consisted of both communists and socialists, who argued over the group's stance on pacificism in the face of Hitler's rise to power and events in Europe. The pamphlet advocates for the American Youth Act, a youth assistance bill proposed by the American Youth Congress as an alternative to the National Youth Administration. The AYA was never able to get out of committee on Capitol Hill, however, as it was too costly. "Foreward: This little pamphlet is published by the American Student Union as a warning to undergraduates to act quickly in defense of democratic education and peace, lest the enemies of our liberties succeed in their plan to regiment youth and precipitate us again into foreign war. The facts it reveals are but a partial presentation, due to space limitations, of available information on the subject. The questions it asks are vital to the welfare of every student. The campaign it proposes to launch deserves the support of every American student."

Publication of the Americanization Committee of the NAWSA. Grace H. Bagley (Mrs. Frederick P. Bagley), Chairman. Excerpts: p. 1 "SPEAKING ENGLISH IS THE FIRST STEP IN AMERICAN CITIZENSHIP AND THEREFORE THE PUBLIC SCHOOL IS THE NATION-WIDE MEDIUM FOR THE MAKING OF LOYAL AMERICAN CITIZENS OUT OF OUR ALIEN POPULATION." p.2 "PROVIDE FOR THE AMERICANIZATION OF THE IMMIGRANT WOMAN. Can the Americanization of our foreign population succeed without the cooperation of the mother? Past failure is due largely to the fact that no intelligent effort has been made to face the situation of the immigrant woman, who either has an infant in her arms or is expecting a baby..." "PATRIOTIC MEETINGS should be organized and conducted by suffragists in every foreign quarter in the United States. Music stereoptican picutres and speeches in foreign languages should be among the attractions. Learn the art of making these patriotic meetings so attractive that the crowds will have to be shut out instead of coaxed in." p. 2-3 "AMERICANIZATION AND INDUSTRY. LABOR IS THE KEY TO SUCCESS in the war. We must not only feed, clothe and arm our own soldiers, sailors and civilians; we must also assist our allies. The task would be impossible without our foreign population."
