BABY-HEALTH CONFERENCE

Living features is. fea-
ture in which grown people, children,
or babies take part-are the most in
teresting division of any exhibit or
celebration. In baby week cam
paign much of the work is necessarily
of this character. The committees
are centers of activity and arrange
the many features which have been
suggested in this bulletin-celebra-
lions by school children, parades, out
ings, etc. The whole campaign. how
ever, revolves about the baby him
self; he is its most interesting fea-
ture.
Various types of what may in gen
eral be called baby-heaIth conferences
have been devised; all have one COM
mon aim, to focus attention on the
individual baby There is a growing
tendency to minimize the competitive
element in these events and to make
the conference of assistance to the
mothers of the babies examined by
pointing out the needs of each baby
and the ways by which his physical
condition may be bettered 1t has
been well said that contests in the
past have done good in calling at
tention to the need and the possibility
of upgrading the American child
But the contest attracts only the
prospective prize winner and leaves
out the great rank and file.

INFANT MORTALITY RATE

What is an infant mortality rate?
The term infant mortality rate" or
baby death rate" means the relation
between the number of babies under
year of age who die in one calen-
dar year to the number of babies
born alive during that year. This is
usually expressed as the number of
deaths of babies which occur per
900 live births.
Each country, each city or town,
and each rural community should
know first of all what its infant
death rate is. and then should do its
utmost to lower this rate by all
methods that have proved success
full elsewhere.
What is the infant mortality rate
of the United States? This can be
given only for limited part of the
whole country, which is the recently
established birth-resistration area.
representing 81 per cent of the total
population of the United States. 1t
includes the six New England States,
New York, Pennsylvania, Michigan
Minnesota, and the District of Col
umbia The infant mortality rate
of this area in 1915 was 100 per
l 900 live births. That is, of every
10 babes born alive, / died before it
reached its birthday for the remain
der of the country we have no re-

of great interest. Systematic work
in providing for all paralyzed child
rem opportunity to secure proper
after-care may form part of the pre-
valence of infantile paralysis deter
community from baby-week OBJ
servance thus suited to the special
conditions, since the celebration may
be used to develop the public inter
est in infant welfare aroused by the
epidemic. The statistics for the first
81 weeks of 1916 for New York City,
where the epidemic was very pro-
nounced show that the baby death
rate actually lower during that time
than it was for the same period of
the year before, when there was no
epidemic, and this improvement is
ascribed to the popular response to
the precautions urged in the en-
deavor to meet the dangers of in
fantile paralysis.
1t is suggested that the baby
weeks throughout Z. the country
should not only emphasize the needs
of young babies but should include
those of all children under school
age. This suggestion has been given
in the following terms:
1t requires only - months for
a baby TO become l year old and no
longer subject to the hazards OF in
FAINT mortality, but there are still
many risks for him to encounter; he
is still absolutely helpless, although
increasingly charming and his par
ents are as eager to keep him well
and happy as DESTROYS OF sound ad-
vice, as they were last year. Open
out the 1917 baby week TO include
children still at home with their
mothers.
Another subject which ii would be
desirable to include for consideration
in baby week this year is the ques-
tion of the need of better care for
mothers before and at confinement
A study recently made by the Child
ren's Bureau has shown that the
welfare of babies can be separated
from that of their mothers, and has
demonstrated the unregarded waste
of women's lives at the very mo-
ment when they are most necessary
TO their children Therefore com
munities may well consider, in con-
nection with baby week, what must
be done TO provide better prenatal
and obstetrical care for mothers.
Finally, this year as we'll as last,
the most important part of baby
week is the follow-up work TO which
il leads Baby week should not be
temporary furry and excitement, the
effect of which is allowed soon to
subside, but very definite efforts
should be made 10 have il lead to
permanent good for the babies of
the community.
In the many communities which
have already held one baby week of
general educational type a second
celebration may well add TO this
general educational campaign partic-
ular emphasis on some one phase of
infant-welfare work which is espec-
tally needed in the community,
such as the establishment. of a pub
lie nursing service, or an infant-wel-
fare station, or prenatal cline, or
county center for material and in

ITS PURPOSE
Purpose and General Plan
of Baby Week


In addition to the description of
campaigns contained in the fore
going pages, the following brief out
line of practical suggestions may be
useful.
The purpose of baby week. in gem
erai. is educational: To give to the
parents of community the oppor-
tunity of learning the facts with re-
gard to the care of their babies. and
Importance of its babies and the
need of permanent work for their
welfare and protection.
While the campaigns of 1917 will
undoubtedly follow this general
plan, it has been suggested that GER
tain additions and notifications may
be made.
The recent epidemic of infantile
paralysis will of course modify the
plans for baby week in any commun-
ity in which such an epidemic has
occurred, or where there seems any
special reason TO fear one. In such
a community State and local health
should be consulted as to
the form which baby week should
take, especially before program fea-
lures are included which involve
bringing babies together. Among
these features are baby parades
outings for mothers and babies. eX-
hibits to which mothers bring their
children, baby contests and confer
ences, etc.
In localities where there have
been cases resulting in paralysis

of muscle training and other ways
of restoring muscular activity prove

PLANS FOR 1917

Baby week has heen the means of
launching so much OF permanent
good to the baby, i; has proved so
Unexpectedly popular everywhere,
and al the same time il has so gen.
orally aroused determination to re-
gard the 1916 baby week as only a
beginning. that the General Fedora
ton of Womens Clubs and the
Children's Bureau decided TO advo-
cate similar celebration in 1917.
Not all of the 400 communities re-
porting a baby-week campaign in
1916 may find it wise to repeat the
celebration in 1917; but the United
States includes 14,lS6 incorporated
cities, towns, and villages, and it is
doubtful if among the thousands
which have never had q baby day
or baby week there is a single town
or village which would not profit
from such a campaign.

tile mortality are mainly the result
of three conditions-poverty, ignor-
ance, and neglect. DIR. l.. Emmett
Holt.
A study of the relation of social
and economic conditions to infant
mortality is now being made by the
United States Childrens Bureau. Re-
ports of the findings of this inquiry
in steel-manufacturing town and in
a residential suburb have already
been published and show a coinci-
deRce of underpaid fathers, over
worked and ignorant mothers, and
those hazards to the life of the off
spring which individual parents can
not avoid or control because they
must be remedied by community ac-
ton. The introduction to one of
these reports say: "All this points
toward the imperative need of ascer-
tanning a standard of life for the
American family, standard which
must rest upon such safeguard in
fants within the household.
There are three groups of diseases
which together cause about three
fourths of all the deaths among
babies. These three groups are:
/. Digestive diseases, which cause
most of the deaths of babies in sum-
mer Bottle-fed babies are most of
ten affected.
2. Diseases of the lungs
3. Diseases due to conditions al
fecting the child before or at birth.
Some of the causes of these diseases
are:
/. OF the digestive diseases: Lack
of breast feeding, improper feeding,
impure milk, carelessness of moth
ers, hot weather, overcrowded, bad
housing, and bad sanitary condi-
tions.
2. OF the diseases of the lungs:
Infections, bad air.
3. OF the diseases due to condi-
tions affecting the child before birth:
Sickness in the parents. overwork of
the mother, improper care before or
at birth
Because the United States differs
from other civilized countries in hav-
ing no general system of birth regis
tratiOn it is impossible to state with
accuracy our proportionate less, but
we have the estimate of the Census
Bureau that our actual loss last year
was about 100000 babies under l
year of age. of whom at least half
would now be living had we. as in
dividuals and communities, applied
those measures of hygiene and sani-
tation which are known and avail
able. Here is a vast and unmeasur-
ed loss of infant due solely TO in
dividaul and civic neglect The
economic and industrial significance
of such loss in the general scheme
of social well-being is beginning to
be realized. 1t was once thought
that a high infant death rate indi-
Gated a greater degree of vigor in
the survivors. Now it is agreed that
the conditions which destroy so many
of the youngest lives of the commun-
ity must also result in Gripping and
maintaining many others and must
react unfavorably upon the health of
the entire community.--First annual
