WORK OF LEAGUE OF WOMEN
VOTERS TO BE ENLARGED

Election is over. The time has come
for the League of Women Voters to be-
gin it's big constructive winter program.
It is two-fold; (1) education in prepare
ton for the spring municipal elections
(2) work for progressive social legisla-
ton at this winter 8 legislative session.
Both these tasks belong peculiarly to an
bipartisan organization like the League
Of Women Voters. Having nothing to
do with national issues, they should not
be done by party organizations. Party
politics have been reformed out Of local
government after long struggle. They
must not be allowed to creep back. All
good citizens should interest themselves
in local affairs and women have an es-
pecial interest in them and particular
aptitude for them. The new voters need
first to study, however, both theory and
practice. Under the League Of Women
Voters study classes will be formed in
every town in the state as fast as local
women are found to cooperate.
Next in importance to local govern.
ment is state legislation. It happens to
be the year of a legislative session and
haste in making ready for work is
therefore necessary. The Minnesota leg
