NATIVE B ABIE s FOUND TO BE
 NEGLECTED
Children of Foreigners In New York Have Best Chance to Sur ViVe.

New York, Feb. 1.-More children were born here last year to foreign born mothers than to American moth CTS, according to an analysis of vital statistics by Health Commissioner pr. Royal s. Copeland.
 The analysis also shows that the death rate for children born of ma tive American mothers was higheP than the death rate among children of foreign-born mothers, in spite of the fact that surroundings fin the American homes were usually better than in the homes of foreigners. Ma tive babies were found to be neglect ed.
 In 1919 ss.7 per cent. of the chill dren born here were to foreign-born mothers. Last years records show about the same proportion.
 ''The death rate for children under one year of age is 90 per 1000 among infants of nattve-born mothers" said Dr. Copeland's analysis, while the rate of infants of Swedish-born moth CTS is 5S, Scotch 43, Russian 64. French 79, Austro-HJingarafn 69 Ro- hemian 75.
 ''F'oreign-born mothers generally nurse their children. This is accoun- table for the low death rate in con gested districts of the city where it might be expected there would be more infant deaths.
 There is another reason for the story told by these figures. American mothers are less Inclined to make use of the baby health stations of the De- partment of Health and public health education promulgated by the depart ment.
 I've have a natural pride in our country and our Americanisn hut we leave it to our foreign-born mothers to have the babies. If this state of affairs is continued thrC ugh a score or more of years our so-called first families, whose lineage goes back to the Mayflower, will dwindle until there will be other and more recent first families.
 Tn the face of fhese figures it is time that very serious attention should be given to the subject of birth cOntrOI''

EX-SOldiers Trained
 To Operate Vessels

Washington, Feb. 1.-The goal of a merchant marine manned by ex- clusive1y American seamen is draw ing near, according to reports on the subject recently compiled.
 During the past few months more than 95 per cent. of the seamen placed on American vessels by the Shipping Boards Sea Service Recruit ing Bureau were Americans, 1t was stated today. When the bureau first began to function less than 10 per cent. of the men placed were Ameri- cans. As time passed and the idea of having a1l-Anerican crews aboard ships flying the United States flag grew the number increased gradually.
 Last fiscal year 6S.S per cent. of the men placed were Americans. From July to November. 1921 the number increased, so that now there are ships which have 100 per cent American crews aboard.
 The final goal is to have every ship manned by a1l-American crews, with the shore establishments equally rep resentative of the United States.
