SAVING BABIES, vs..
STATES, RIGHTS

Our states Fighters, who are now
found in the Republican party as
well as In the Democratic party,
must be somewhat confused by an
independent report made regarding
the workings OF the Sheppard
Towner act. which was adopted in
1921 to provide federal aid to
states in the effort to reduce the
mortality rates Of infants and chill
dren.
Some Of the ardent states right
ers in Connecticut have pointed to
this act as bad example of
"paternalistic government" and
even President Coolidge has been
in doubt about the method.
The independent investigation was
made into the act in nine states by
the Eliza beth Mccormick Memorial
fund of Chicago. The report stated
that "a fine piece of work is under
way A paragraph from the re
port is as follows;
we have heard 4 great deal dur
ing the past five years concerning
bureaucracy paternalism, states
rights and the whole policy of fed
oral aid. During this survey We have
kept such arguments in mind and
have encouraged persons interview
Cd to express themselves on these
matters. In only two of the nine
states were they given serious con-
sideratlon. In Iowa the antagonism
/ shown by some physicians in private
pra ctIce was due to confusing the
activities under the Sheppard
I Towner act with the Perkins bill. a
piece of state legislation which is
ohleCtlona bic to them And again:
In almost every state women s
clubs. paren'-teacher associations,
societies and individuals interested
in public health were unanimously
in favor of the work being done nm
