|
Papers of a Wisconsin Republican and conservationist who served in the State Assembly from 1916 until 1961, including correspondence, reports, legislative bills, budget proposals, speeches, biographical materials, and newspaper clippings. The correspondence, primarily from constituents, focuses on the issues of patronage, military deferments, the Great Lakes fisheries, and other conservation issues. The correspondence includes an exchange with Governor Philip F. La Follette outlining political problems during 1935 and extensive communication with John Van Oosten of the U.S. Bureau of Sport Fisheries and Wildlife. Other prominent correspondents include Walter S. Goodland and Julius P. Heil. Additional materials document the Sturgeon Bay assemblyman's relationships with Governors Goodland (1943-1947) and Heil (1939) and with the Izaak Walton League. During his tenure in the state legislature, Graass also served on the Northern Great Lakes Area Council and the Great Lakes Fisheries Committee of the Council of State Governments.Collection Location: Wisconsin Historical Society |
