Abstract

Save the Children
Kelley, Florence | December 10, 1930 issue

add to cart   close window

The article throws light on the conference on Child Health and Protection. The medical authorities in the conference preached the duty of governments to stimulate local authorities to help make childbirth safe and reduce the number of motherless homes. One cheering item is the fact that the U.S. Senate Commerce Committee reported favorably the original Jones-Cooper bill to appropriate to the Children's Bureau funds for its work for the hygiene and welfare of maternity and infancy. Of the multiplicity of bills dealing with the subject this alone came out of committee. This bill intact is still before the Senate awaiting a favorable vote.
