ALL AMERICA TO JOIN
IN CAMPAIGN FOR BABY

a Iof age. This death rate is figured q
l24 in thousand. 1t is claimed b.
the experts on babies that this rat,
| is fully double what it should be. Tt
illustrate their claim, they point tt
London, where, despite the unsanitar.
conditions in the poorer quarters, tht
infant death rate reaches barely ovel
a hundred. In typical Norwegian anc
Swedish cities it has dropped to 81
per thousand, and in New ZealanC
the rate is as low as so per thousand
In Vienna and Berlin the infant death
rate runs high, at 100 per thousand
and in Petrograd and Moscow IL
reaches 2S0
The American people have been
aware of high infant mortality in
this country, but the cause was laid
to the crowding of cities and the in
fiux of immigrants. This theory has
been shattered through an investiga
ton conducted in New York, which
showed that where the immigrants
were thickest the death rate of babies
was lower than among the native
American parents under better condi
tiOns.
! The saving of baby's life is only one
OF the aspects of the big campaign
| known as Baby Week. 1t is aimed to
give baby a healthy start along life's
highway, by keeping him free from
disease and injury. To see that the
babies are born healthy, to see that
they are kept well are measures fully
as important as the cutting down of
the death rate.
Baby stations, which have worked
out well in many cities, are advocated
as a practical solution in each local

A physician at the station instructs
mothers and examines babies. Pure
milk has been dispensed at these sta
tons, as part of the campaign.
That a thousand babies die each
day in America, half of whom could
be saved by intelligent care and pre-
vention of disease is the alarming
fact that brings together the eco
nomic, educational and scientific force
of America for Baby Week"
