A resolution passed by the Brad
dock Study and Civic club Of Brad
dock, N. d., a federated women's
club composed of sixteen members
at its regular meeting held Janu-
airy II, 1927.
Whereas, The state department
Of health has never received an APP
preparation sufficient to do the
constructive public health work in
this state which conditions war
rant, and
Whereas, The Federal Maternity
and Infancy Act known as the
Sheppard Towner Act will expire
this year, with it's renewal very
doubtful, and
Whereas, The maternal and in
FAINT mortality Of our state are very
high, many of these deaths being
preventable if mother and baby
had proper care, and
Whereas, 1t will be a great loss
to the state if the wonderful work
OF the Child Hygiene Bureau is
not continued in it's present eff
cheney,
We, the members of the Brad
dock Study and Civic club, resolve
l. That we indorse the efforts
of the state department of health
to save human lives and commend
its efficiency.
2. That the appropriation of the
state department of health is not
unreasonable.
3. That the full amount Of
money lest by the expiration of the
Sheppard-Towner act should be
furnished to the state department
OF health by the state legislature
in addition to the am Mount requested
to support their other health work
including a sanitary engineer.

tions be spread upon our minutes,
copy sent to the Emmons County
Record; the Emmons County Free
Press and the Hazelton Independ-
ent, and copy sent to all men,
