said. Approximately 200 parents of
the area petitioned the department
some lime ago to establish the
clinic M
Dr. Ella Oppenheimer, director OF
the Bureau of Maternal and Child
Welfare. said that health services
for the present viii be restricted to
infants and pre-school children.
Large numbers of children in this
area are in need of immunization
and health supervision at once"

that residents of the area had
come to them with stories of consid-
erable illness among their children,
some with bad cases of irnpetigo,
some in need of examinations,

did not have carfare to take their
children to clinics downtown.

| ported. Five of these clinics have

| on full-time basis At that time,

| Children's Bureau, was appointed
| director.
Since 1886, the Health Depart
ment stated, the infant mortality
rate in the District had dropped
from 72 infant deaths per thousand
live births to As last year, a de-
crease of 81 per cent. During the
same period, it reported, the ma
! ternal mortality rate has been re-
duced from 6,5 maternal deaths per
thousand live births to 2.3, re-
duction of IS per cent.
Utilization Proof Cited.

declared, ''in saving life is an ex-
preston of what the development
| of needed service can do 1t shows

| community's resources the parents
will utilize them in the fullest"
