2,000,000 BABIES
ARE WEIGHED
FOR HEALTH
WASHINGTON, April 22— Weigh
ing ot more than 2,000,000 babies, e.
tablishment of many new health cen
ters to advise mothers on the care of
their children, and stimulation of tha
movement to keep children in school
and provide them adequate recreation,
were reported today by the Children’<
Bureau as some of the results of it’s
Children’s year campaign.
More than 11,000,000 women part -
cipated in the activities |f the yea',
Hch was inaugurated April 6, 1P1S.
the first anniversary of America’s de
claration of war. It was planned to
>ave at least 100,000 of the 300,000
children who die annually of prevent
able diseases.
The first activity of the year was
a test of children under six to see
whether they were up to the standards
of weight and height for their nge>.
Nearly 7,000 000 record cards were is
sued. of which more than 2,000,000
have b«»en tabulated, with others vet
to he turned in. A number of commun
ities have under taken a second test
this spring to include children misse 1
in the first and also to note improve
ment in those previously registered.
Need for preventive work on be
half of children was said to have been
emphasized by the information ob
tained in the test. According to re
ports received from State Child Wcl
fare Chairman of the Council of Nat
ional Defense, communities in 24 stat
es have employed new public health
nurses during the year. From ten of
these states a total of 127 new nurse*
has b«NMi reported. One hundred and
thirty-four children’s health centers to
which mothers may go for expert ad
vice concerning the best means of car
ing for their children have been es
£
tahlished during Children’s Year in
t
communities in 15 states.
Swimming pools, playgroungs, and
now leisure-time activities have be
come a part of the play life of boys
and girls in many communities as a
result of the year. From sixteen states
the establishment of new playground*
has been reported.
Forty-three states. New York City,
and the District of Columbia are en
gaged in a campaign to prevent boy*
and girls from going to work before
they have the training they used for
successful and happy lives. “Back to
School" and “Stay in School” are the
slogans of this drive.. A number of
communities have provided scholar
ship funds to enable children of needy
parents to continue their education
after they reach the legal working
ago. At least one such scholarship for
oat h of the 281,000 school houses in
the United States is the goal that has
been set.
Although Children’s Year is offi
cially over, plans are under way iri
several states to make every year a
Children’s Year. A new consciousness
