NEED PRENATAL CARE TO
INSURE HEALTHY BABIES
After Thirty Days Infants Have
Good Chance To Survive

Records of the State Department of
Health with regard to the staying
qualities of certain groups of new ar
rivals in the State, in connection with
what is recognized as an especially
hazardous occupation, show that those
who are able to stand the strain and
perils of the first thirty days on the
job, have fairly good chance to be
able to go on with it.
The records OF the State Bureau of
Vital Statistics for 1885, show that
there were 1,734 deaths among the new
arrivals of that year, nearly one
fourth of which-43O-occ during
the first day on the job. By the end of
the week 720 had dropped out. By the
end of the month, 920 deaths had oc-
Cured. The rest of the deaths-814-
were scattered over the next eleven
months. The records for the same class
of citizens for 1886 show similarly
high percentages of deaths during the
first month after arrival in the State.
Analysis of the causes of these
deaths shows that four out of every
five of those that occurred during the
first thirty days after arrival, were
due to inherent physical weakness or
to diseases that made it impossible
for the individual to stay on the job.
Diseases which can be partly controlled
or prevented including pneumonia and
bronchitis, were responsible for nearly
300 of the 1,734 deaths recorded in
that particular group in 1885, but only
A of these occurred during the first
80 days; the digestive diseases carried
off 215 individuals but only II of
these deaths occurred within the first
month after arrival.
The new arrivals" referred to were
the babies who were born in Maryland
in the last two years. There were 49,
143 births, and 1,734 deaths of babies
under a year old in 1885, 920 of which
were recored by the end of the first
month. Last year, 26,754 births and
1881 deaths under a year old were
recorded and of the latter, 876 &C.
Cured during the first month of life.
Speaking of the significance of these
figures, DR.. J. H. M. Knox, Jr., Chief
of the State Bureau of Child Hygiene,
said: at is necessary for US to face
facts like these in order that we may
understand why we cannot wait until
the baby arrives to establish protec-
tive safeguards for him or her, but
must start with the mother as soon
and even before-the baby is expected.
For the sake of both mother and baby,
we must see that the mother has medi-
cal supervision and the right sort Of
care. She must also have proper nour-
ishment to aid in keeping her well
and to help build strong, healthy
baby. Such care is the right of every
expectant mother and of every baby"

0'C0NN0RS SAYS
BANKS SAFEST
IN HISTORY
International News Service

Liberal rediscounts under an
amended Federal reserve act, pro-
lection under the Federal deposit
insurance law and the present
liquidity Of banks, combine to give
America the "soundest banking
structure this country has ever
SEEN"
This was the testimony of Comp
troller of Currency ]. F. T. O'Con-
nor before House appropriations
subcommittee made public today.
Deposits in national banks are
approximately $26,500, 100000, an
all-time high, he said. Only one
national hank and 43 State and
private banks failed in the nation
last year. National bank profits
were $241,971, 900 in 1886, an in
crease of 239 per cent over 1885,
O'Connor declared.
Until a national bank closed on
December 10, 1886, there had not
been a national bank failure in
more than IA months, a 55-year
record, according to the comp
troller.
Representative Ludlow Cd, of
Indiana, subcommittee chairman,
questioning O'Connor regarding
the spectacular jump in net profits
to banks, asked:
"That was despite the fact
that the banks were heavily
loaded with Government securi.
ties bearing low INTEREST,""
O'Connor replied:
''Yes."
He submitted figures showing
banks to be holding more than II
billions in Government securities,
which he said amounted to 1888
per cent of their total assets.
The Jump in profits were not
operating profits, he said. He at
tributed them to 'recoVerieS," such
as increased bond values and sales

Sales by Factories

Representative Wright Patman
Cd, Texas, said today that
he will introduce in Congress today
a bill to prevent manufacturers
from selling goods at retail in COM

The Federal Trade Commission
would be empowered to prohibit
manufacturer-to-consumer sales
where the effect may be sub
stantially to lessen competition
between such manufacturer and
his dealer customers" under Pat

with the reSult-Stutterlng.
DR.. Greene is not fully convinced
of the truth of this theory. He
admits that most sufferers are
left handed, but says that many
nervous people representing be-
havior disorders, squint, neuroses
and other conditions are left hand
ed. He says that his study of the
evidence leads him to believe that
suffering may not be related to
left handedness or manual reversal.
He does feel that the suffering
type of child has a peculiar nerv-
Gus organization, on top of which
is early conditioning in the family.
These people have an unstable
vegetative nervous system-that
part of the nervous system which
takes care Of so many automatic
functions without ever impinging
on consciousness. The hands or
these people in the throes Of spas
modic speech are drenched with
Precipitation. They have rapid
changes in the action Of the small
blood vessels, flushing and pallor
alternately, and may appear in the
disorganized muscular functioning
Of speech.
Added to this is fundamental
instability Of the emotional life,
which has been aggravated by
some family stress during child
hood.
Undoubtedly 1t is true that the
basis of suffering is not simple.
parents Par point out that the stutter-
ing child is bright in studies, ana
seem to feel that the only thlng
needed is a few speech drills. They
do not realize that they have spe-.
cial type of child and very COM
plex problem to deal with.
NV own experience with adults
who have a tendency to stutter. OF
who have overcome suffering,
would not indicate that there is as
much nervous instability as Dr.
Greene's experience has uncovered.
The cerebral dominance theory
works in practice-that IS IN sue
cessful treatment.
