Sumner in uproar over university infant death study plan
Des Moines, November 25. Dr. G. H. Sumner, secretary of the Iowa State Board of Health, denounces Dr. Ralph E. Heilman and the university bureau of social welfare for planning a statewide infant mortality inquiry. Sumner says the board already has vital statistics and monthly infant death figures and can answer “how many babies die and why” without outside canvassing. He asserts improper nursing and bottle feeding as key causes and cites 1910 reports to support his department’s work.
