NEWS LETTER

dSNlnRCOn, Occ. 70. - HOW the
government can give proper medical
care to every mother in America at
the birth of her child is set forth in
the fifth annual report of Miss Julia
Lathrop, chief Of the United States
Children's Bureau.
For five years she has been trying
to find a way to have the lives Of the
mothers and babies at child birth.
Fifteen thousand women in isolated
country districts or town tenements
die every year because the doctor was
not present in their hour of pain, and
thousands of babies dies because their
mothers have died, or because the
babies themselves have been neglect
ed at the time Of their coming into
the world.
County or neighborhood nursing
centers are proposed, as the first step
toward saving these lives. Federal
and state govrnmnts would appropri-
ate the necessary funds to maintain
a trained nurse at each center. Here
would be established the responsible
ity for giving to prospective mothers
information they may need, and for
seeing that they have medical care.
/ The Bureau finds that country wo-
men, who live far from doctor, die
at faster rate, between the ages of
20 and As, than do men, although the
average death rate for men through
out life is greater than that of wo-
men. This indicates that farm wo-
men, in the years Of bearing chill
dren, have been allowed to die for
lack Of medical care. The death rate
for women who have medical care
within easy reach is not nearly SO
great. -.
Probably congress will do nothing
about it. Some of the state legisla-
lures may decide to face the facts
and give these rural mothers and
babies a chance to live. The cost OF
a system of nursing and medical at.
tendance would be comparatively
small.
Poverty Cause of Death.
Miss Lathrop brings another in
tereSting set of facts to light, in this
same report.
She shows that babies in the in
sdustrial towns die in Just about the
proportion of the poverty of their
families. Three hundred thousand
children under S years of age die in
the United States each year, and a
very large part of them could be
saved if their fathers had a slightly
bigger income. In Manchester, New
Hampshire, for instance, the babies
of mothers who went out to work died
at twice the rate of babies whose
mothers stayed at home. Who were
these mothers who went out to work
and let their babies suffer and die
A government inquiry showed that
where the husband in a family earned
below $3.50 a year, three-fourths Of
the wives had to work out. Where
husbands earned over $1050 year,
only about one-tenrh Of the wives
worked out.
In eight cities - Johnston, Pa,
Montclear, N. j., Manchester, N. H.,
Brockton and New Bedford, Mass,
Saginaw, Mich, Akron, Ohio, and
Waterbury, Conn. - the earnings of
fathers of 10000 babies were deter
mined. One-fourth of all the fathers
earned less than $3.50 year; in these
families every sixth baby died. Only
about an eighth Of the fathers earn
ed over $1050 a year; of their babies
only one in sixteen died.
Miss Lathrop remarks that "The

NEW PIPE OREGON
FOR SALEM CHURCH
First Congregational Church
Will Install Splendid
Instrument

By the first of next October. a pipe
organ' to cost $4,000 win be installed in
the First Congregational church. Al
ready a fund of 81 200 has been raised
for the organ. This announcement was
made at the annual meeting of the
First Congregational church. An organ
committee was appointed including
George J. Watson, R. N. Hoover, Cora
Talkington, George G. Brown and the
pastor, Rev. James Elvin.
The installation IF a moving picture
machine and the showing of moving pie
lures every Sunday evening was also
reported on, showing that this innova.
tion in Sunday evening services had
been entirely successful, not only in
the increased attendance each Sunday
evening, but from financial view as
well. 1t is figured that with the extra
collections received Sunday evenings of
this year, the machine will have paid
for itself Since the Salem Congrega-
tional church installed movie machine,
churches of the same denomination at
Corvallis, Rose Park, Ore, and Wash
ougal, Wash, have followed the Salem
plan.
Besides paying for its general running
expenses of the year, the annual report
showed that $165 had been paid on the
parsonage. With real estate and build
ings valued at $25,0O0 there is only an
Indebtedness OF only 1926 against the
property. The present church was erect
cd IL years ago. The membership to-
day is 200.
The Rev. James Elvin, pastor of the
church, is member of the state parole
board, appointed by Governor Witty
combe, a former president of the Marion
County Sunday School association and
at present member of the Civies club.
During the past year he has given his
time freely not only in civic matters,
but to the Y. NJ. c. A. and Christian
Endeavor Union of the city.
