Title

Brother Alfred letter to Carol Stone [Caroline Katzenstein], 31 May 1940

Description

Caroline Katzenstein was a prominent suffragist in the years leading up to the Nineteenth Amendment. In addition to her continued support for the Equal Rights Amendment, Katzenstein spent much of her time writing essays and articles under the pseudonym Carol Stone. Her 1939 essay, "The Sporting Spirit," documents her utopian ideals and urges her readers to think in terms of individual morality for the common good. She disseminated her essay to dozens of the most luminous academics and political figures of the time. This letter is from Brother Alfred, president of La Salle College.
