Florence A. Hague Becker (April 23, 1886 – July 16, 1971), also known as Mrs. William A. Becker, was an American philanthropist and anti-communist activist who served as the 16th president general of the National Society Daughters of the American Revolution. As president general, she led the national society through the Great Depression, developing an employee retirement fund, restoring employee salaries to pre-Depression levels, and focusing on children's educational and nutritional needs. She was recruited by Congressman John W. McCormack to compile a report on Communist propaganda being distributed to American youth. She used her position to speak out against Communism and the Socialist Movement.
