INCREASE THE MATER
NIFTY HOSPITAL SERVICE

Boston, Nov. 13.-The need in every
pital service to provide adequate care,
either Free or at moderate cost, was en-
phasiZed today, at the session on obste-
tries of the fifth annual meeting of the
American Association for Study and Pre-
vention of Infant Mortality. The speak
number of the deaths of mothers and
babies can be traced to the lack of suita-
BILE hospital facilities; they advocated
the thorough instruction of medical stu
dents in this branch; and recommended
that each community should make it
possible for every mother to receive the
best and most scientific care at reason
able cost; the expense to be borne by the
state if necessary.
In opening the discussion, the chairman,
Dr. Mary Sherwood of Baltimore, con-
trasted the requirements for the practice
OF obstetrics on the part of physicians
the four or more years of training in the
medical schools, with courses in general
medicine, surgery and obstetrics, with
the total absence of training of the ma
jority of midwives and the inadequate
training covering a period of about six
months for the few who can claim to
have had any training of any sort. at
is time" DR. Sherwood continued, for
this country to take a positive stand on
what sort of care women should have in
these cases.
