For the first time in the history of this city, Jewish voters have been organized in a city-wide group, to be known as the Voters League of Springfield.
The new organization is an outgrowth of the Forest Park Voters’ league, composed of the Jewish Republican voters of Ward Six. Joseph Kushner was elected president. Other officers are Mrs. Samuel Cutler and Benjamin Swirsky, Leopold S. Kohn, Miss Ann Salvage and Atty. Louis J. Dietz.
