LOS ANGELES. Cal, June S.-"lf
the officials Of all big cities OF the
United States would take as much
pains to enforce laws created to pro-
tect babies as they do to enforce those
created for the benefit of grown-ups,
the frightful death rate among the lit
tie tots OF our country would be cut
in half"
This is the statement of City Health
Ofncer l.. NJ. Powers, Of Los Angeles,
a baby champion. who has won his
right TO be listened to. For statistics
show that, for babies. Powers has
made Los Angeles the most healthful
city OF 100000 inhabitants or over in
the United States. IL not In the world.
The latest figures disclose that only
one OF every 10 babies born i'm this
city die before they are one year old.
while the general death rate for all
the cities in the United States is one
out of every six.
The babies born I'm this city from
May 1, 1907. to May 1, 1908. number
ed 1854. including all races. OF
these, only AIS died before they were
one year old.
There are several very important
reasons for this low mortality among
babies, and II the other cities would
follow our plan there is no reason
why tho frightful death rate among
babies should not be cut down." says
DR.. Powers.
Here are the rules by which this
city keeps down the death rate among
newborn babies:
The laws against the oyer-crowd-
ing of dwelling house and tenement
rooms are enforced,
