What is Pro America

Dallas, Texas: National Association of Pro America, 1940. Fine.. A 1930s pamphlet promoting the Dallas Chapter of the "Pro-America", a "national volunteer educational organization for women, dedicated to the preservation of the Constitution ... It includes in its membership Republicans, Constitutional Democrats and women who have never before been interested in government" (cover). Published for prospective members, the pamphlet offers a succinct list of principles, its program, and objectives. Interesting to see which of this organization's principles and objectives have (and have not) filtered down to certain relevant political groups and ideologies today. The umbrella organization was founded in 1933 by Mrs. Theodore Roosevelt. Printed bifolium (6.25" by 3.5"), with red white and blue ribbon with organization name on cover. Principles - Believes in the founding fathers, individual freedom and individual responsibility as God given rights, the need for spiritual guidance and much more.
