  • Former Women Members “I’M No Lady, I’M a Member of Congress”
    ★ PART ONE ★ Former Women Members “I’m No Lady, I’m a Member of Congress” women pioneers on capitol hill, 1917–1934 Great triumphs and historic firsts highlight women’s initial foray into national political office. Four years after Jeannette Rankin was elected to the House of Representatives in 1916, women won the right to vote nationally, with the ratification of the 19th Amendment in 1920. Rebecca Felton of Georgia became the first woman to serve in the U.S. Senate in 1922. That same year, Alice Robertson of Oklahoma became the first woman to preside over the House of Representatives. In 1923, Representative Mae Ella Nolan of California became the first woman to chair a congressional committee. Two other women followed her lead, including Mary Norton of New Jersey, the first woman elected from the East Coast, who would chair four House committees during her quarter-century career. In 1932, Hattie Caraway became the first woman elected to the Senate. Several other women attained prominent committee positions, including Representative Florence Prag Kahn of California, the first woman to serve on the powerful Appropriations Committee. Nevertheless, women were still a distinct minority of the 435 House Members; at their peak during this period, nine served in the 71st Congress (1929–1931). They lacked the power to focus congressional attention on the issues that were important to them. Jeannette Rankin of Montana, a suffragist and peace activist, was the first woman to serve in Congress. painting by sharon sprung, 2004, collection of the u.s. house of representatives Without seniority, and facing institutional prejudices, the early Congress- women viewed leadership positions as an elusive quest.

STOUGHTON, MASS. \) V .\ ?. PREFACE Again is verified the statement that every Legislature has its own peculiar feature. That of 1916 was an extra session, Sept. 12, 13, 14, called to provide some method of taking the votes of the Massachusetts soldiers on the Mexican border, of securing a constitutional adjustment of the rep- resentative districts in Suffolk county, and of providing suitable compen- sation to families of soldiers in United States service as members of the National Guard. A bill to prevent spread of infantile paralysis was passed also. Extra pay of $50 each was deemed just and reasonable, with mileage of 20 cents one way. This was the first extra session, called for special action, since that of 1872, called to provide for exigencies resulting from the great Boston fire in November, which lasted two weeks, and at which other matters were also considered. Aside from this feature, was the fact that more business was disposed of in less time than ever before. One threatened investigation was warded off; and another resulted in an ex- pulsion.

  • Men of Hawaii" to the Public a Public Considerably Wider Than the Bounds of - - the Territory Its Editors and Publishers Have a Two- Fold Purpose
    1AWAB BEflNQ A LIBRARY, COMPLETE AND AUTHENTBC, OF THE MEH OF IEVEM EDITED BY JOHN WILLIAM SIDDALL PUBLISHED BY HONOLULU STAR-BULLETIN, LIMITED TERRITORY OF HAWAII 1917 t -> ' 87427V T % ' - > * COPYRIGHT. 1917 HONOLULU STAR-BULLETIN, LTD. HONOLULU. HAWAII N PRESENTING "Men of Hawaii" to the public a public considerably wider than the bounds of - - the Territory its editors and publishers have a two- fold purpose. First, the book is a standard reference work, compre- hensive, complete and authoritative. It is a publication compiled with a care and a system of collecting information which in- sures its accuracy and insures also that justice is done to its subject. It is a reference volume presenting biographically pertinent facts about the men of Hawaii who lead in their respective fields. In general these fields are the business or commercial, the professional, the educational, the religious and the scientific covering all activities which in Hawaii have brought its men to the front as potent and constructive factors in their communities. Secondly, the book is a series of milestones of achieve- ments. It has been truly said that the progress of any gener- ation, of any century, of any country, of any nation may be measured by the biographies of its men. In Hawaii this is true today as in ancient Greece, medieval Rome, modern France, or England, or the mainland United States. Hawaii is a modern American community with its roots far back in the past. Here the primitive life of Polynesia has been moulded and modified by the influx of many races, bloods and languages.
