Child's Health a
 Community Duty
Cities Responsibility More Than Safe Water and
 Sewerage Declares State Health Com Dr Osborne

Hartford, Oct 13-Duty of the community in protecting It's chill dren against the hazards of disease not only by. the usual means of guarding the health of the entire community through a safe water supply, adequate sewage disposal and the like, but also by providing funds and means by which their parents may be educated in their proper care and by which they may be immuniZed against certain diseases, was emphasized by Dr Stanley H. Osborn, state commits sioner of health, in the weekly broadcast of the state department of health today.
 It Is the duty of each community, Dr Osborn declared to strive to- wards the goal of assuring each child a healthy body and to reach this goal efforts must be started before birth and continue through the school life of the child. For many years, 1t has been an ac- knowledged community duty to provide pure water supply and a sewerage system, but now most communities have seen the neces- sity of going further. Thus, there is supervision by health officers oi
The Waterbury Democrat., 1932-10-13

foods, particularly the milk supply and foods which are eaten raw. There are many other ways, however, in which the community as a whole should assist in protect ing the health of its children, Dr Osborn stated. Means should be provided through physicians, dis pensaries, hospitals or health cen- ters whereby authoritative instruc- tion to mothers both before and after birth is available, especially concerning proper balanced diet which will insure both the health of the child and the mother. h. formation should also be made a. vaiiable for general guidance to health throughout the child's school life by means of pamphlets which physicians may obtain from local health officers.
 All children should have the ad- vantage of early and periodic phy- sical examinations, since defects discovered in early childhood are often more readily remedied than later in life. Likewise, the com munity has duty in providing means of immunizing children a. gainst such disease as diptheria, typhoid fever, smallpox and scar let feve& In this way.' the com munity will protect itself against future epidemics of those diseases
 There is great opportunity for making such knowledge and im- munization available to all and in this line of endeavor. Dr Osborn declares, the community through its physicians and health officers can assist to marked degree; but the community must provide the funds for the health officer to carry out such an educational pro- ject. Even the printing of pam pamphlets costs money, but 1t pays many times over in the end in furthering the good health of its children.

heart, my solidarity with you"
This was MONEYS reply to the
demand that he attack the Soviet
Union. He refused to retract one
syllable of his blasting exposure of
the role of the American trade
union reaction, showing how it
conspires with the profit takers to
keep him in prison. AS for the
demand made up on him that he
desert the working class struggle,
he declares:

Won't Surrender
Freedom is a precious treasure
to be won by a class war prisoner
especially, like Mooney, after 16
years in a prison tomb. But
Mooney refuses to pay the price of
surrender for that treasure. So
did the 14-year-old Roy Wright,
one of the Scottsboro Negro boys,
refused to surrender when the judi
ical lynchers of Alabama recently
offered him his freedom and added
$500 to the bride if he would be-
tray the other eight Scottsboro
boys.
The Mooney Billings persecution
links closely with the Scottsboro
infamy in many ways. The 84-year-
old mother of Mooney with a
Scottsboro mothers, tours the
United States in the renewed
Scottsboro- Mooney campaign; while
the .Scottsboro mother, Mrs. Ada
Wright, touring Europe, raises the
struggle not only for the release of
the Scottsboro boys, but for the
liberation Of Mooney and Billings,
and all the class war prisoners.
Thus July 26th, the anniversary of
MONEYS Imprisonment, linke d
closely with the July and August
days of struggle of the whole
working class.
