to be apportioned among the states
in proportion which their population
bears to the population of the coun-
try. This apportionment Is condl-
tional on an appropriation by the
state of an amount equal to that al
lotted to it.
Opponents of the bill who have
been fighting it on the ground that 1t
is hirth-control measure, made per-
sistent efforts to render it innocuous
by Offering amendment after amend
ment. All failed save one offered by
Sen. Reed of Missouri, which prohib-
its administration officers of the act
from entering homes or taking charge
of children over the objections OF the
parents.
Sen Moses of New Hampshire pro-
posed transferring the administration
of the bill from the secretary OF labor
to the secretary of the treasury, but
