The United States Bureau of tn,
Census is about to make a test o
birth registration in the State o
Washington to determine how effici
emily the laws are being compiled
with and the probable completeness
of registration in all parts of tn
state.
All births must be registered, Dr.
Paul A. Turner, Director of TIL
State Department of Health, declares
if Washington is to stand well in tn
test. Parents OF children, who's
births have not been registered O
who do not have birth certificate
should apply for information concern
ing registration at once to the loca
registrar or to the Vital Statistic
Bureau, State Department of Health

While statistics in themselves ar
uninteresting to many, birth registra
ton is vital to the public health o
the state and to the individual, Di
Turner points out. For Washington
to remain in the registration area, tn
federal test must show the state
Birth registration to be almost 10
per cent complete.
The law requires the registration c
births within ten days Of their occur
renee. Any person who knows that
birth has occurred and knows that n
record of the event has been made
should. see to it that a certificate

stored within the required time ma
mean disgrace to the state.
The birth registration area wa
established in 1915 when the Censu
Bureau selected 10 states from whic
transcripts of all birth records fe
that year were required. Washingto
went into the area in 1917. At til
present time there are 80 states
