Milwaukee offers herself as living
proof of the truth of the assertion
that as intelligence in the care of young
children increases the death rate in
variably decreases.
Six years ago this city established a
municipal health bureau, and for two
years previous To that she has sys-
tematically compiled and kept her in
FAINT mortality figures.
According to these figures. the NOR
tally of infants under one year of age
was in 1912 % per cent of all the
deaths occurring in the city. In 1917
it was only 20 per cent. This substan-
tiaI decrease is attributed to the fine
child welfare work carried on by the
local committee.
