Mothers urged to cut maternal child deaths at Chautauqua
Grace Abbott of the Federal Children's Bureau told delegates of the General Federation of Women’s Clubs that states must register births and deaths to know problems and that the Sheppard-Towner act should be used to push model laws. She noted 3 states have not adopted the model law and 16 more lag in birth registration, urging local leadership and education to reduce mortality among mothers and infants. Our idea of being out of work is having a job figuring what is made by cussing the weather.
