Why Registered Babies?

The weighing and measuring test
of babies under SIX which is golnS
forward in thousands of comnlunl-
ties as a first sep in saving lO0,OOo
lives during Children's Year has
shown the women who are organlZ-
ing the work and the communities IN
which it is being done that the mu-
nicipal register of births is not as
complete as it must be If the local
officials are to have RECORDS OF all
children who are born in their mel
ghborhood.
In New Orleans, for instance, the
test started with a house to house
canvass to find all the children under
six. In several other places chair
men have reported it as their inten-
ton to take this means of locating
children.
Such a canvass, which is but incl
dental TO the weighing and measur-
ing test, is part Of the procedure
recommended by the Children's Blu
reau of the United States Depart
ment OF Labor to test birth registra-
ton. House to house canvasSeS nave
been necessary as preliminaries TO
the Children's Bureau intensive
studies OF infant mortality. When
the results OF such canvasses are
compared with the lists OF registered
births on file at the office OF the To-
cal board of health it is possible to
learn the per cent. of births which
are not being registered.
The Children Bureau has recelv-
ed reports of more than $4,000
births which have been looked up by
hJrt
registration. Twenty-Five per cent.
of the births Investigated were found
to be not registered. The tests were
conducted in 81 States and more
than>400 cities.
Parents, community, and the child
himself profit by having the baby's
birth registered. Prompt registra-
ton makes it possible for the public
health nurse to render more efficient
service to the community. 1t may
enable her to reach promptly baby
who would die without her care.
The child himself as he grows OLD
er may have many different reasons
tor needing to prove how old he Is,
and his birth certificate is certain
proof. When he is old enough to
come within the compulsory educa-
ton laws it enables him to prove his
right to schooling. While he IS
young enough to be protected from
labor which would harm him physi-
cally and prevent his getting his
share of education his birth certifi-
cate is his protection. When he
wants an insurance policy, a mar
riage license, or a passport, he can
prove his right to them by his birth
certificate.
Complete birth and death registra-
ton assure the community of accur-
ate knowledge OF the most sensitive
index OF its well being infant
death rate. With that guide it can
guard the lives OF its citizens as they
must be guarded if the lives of 1907
900 children are to be saved during
Children'S Year.
