Scope and Contents
The series consists of the subject files of the League, containing most notably files on: the Public Utility Franchises, Roads, Elections, National Affairs (post-war), Coal Supply, Equal Suffrage, and Prohibition. The files on the utilities include gas, telephone, inter-urban & street railway, including comparisons with costs in other cities. The files on national affairs, including war programs, reconstruction, and high cost of living are of importance in portraying ideas of Grand Rapidians, as exemplified through the League, in re these post-war issues.
