| The papers of Jessie Jack Hooper, 1865-1935, held by the Society, are from mainly 1920-1935. They document Jessie Jack Hooper, an Oshkosh, Wis., suffrage speaker, Democratic Party leader, and worker for permanent peace. The papers concern her work as first president of the Wisconsin League of Women Voters until her nomination for United States Senator in 1922, and her later work as chairman of its department on Indian affairs; her campaign against Senator Robert M. La Follette; the split in the state Democratic Party over the prohibition issue and her work for other party candidates; and cooperation with the Wisconsin State Conference of Social Work and many other state and national social agencies and peace organizations. Published in the Wisconsin Magazine of History: Volume 46, number 2, winter, 1962-1963, p.134. |
