Abstract

Considerable work has been carried out on the work of women's organisations in Australia in the early 1900s particularly in the areas of suffrage and child welfare. However, there has been little work on the pro-censorship activities that they undertook particularly at the State level. This paper attempts to redress the imbalance by examining the responses made by discussing the responses made by women's organisations to the question of film censorship in Western Australia 1898-1928.
