BIRTH REGISTRATIONS :
A NATIONAL NECESSITY
NE of the most glaring; of .America's crimes against her childhood,
her citizenship and, iii fact, against herself, brought out at the re
cent conference of tjie National Municipal league at Baltimore,
was the lack of absolute facts regarding-mlant mortality, says tne
Philadelphia North American. t
Mrs Florence Kelly, of the. National Consumers league, made the
statement that,' so far as is! j known, 300,000 children die every year in
America from preventable causes. Yet, these statistics cannot be trusted,
for the American people carijhso little about protecting the human life that
is given at such great cost that they have no adequate system of birth reg
istration, no affiliation between the mother and the city authorities - who
should help her to rear her baby. . '
Mrs. Kellv oointed to the fact that we do not know where these chil-
' dren die, arid we cannot determine
sporadic investigations have proved startling things. I For instance, it was
found in one investigation iiiiNew York that the infant death rate was
greater in a section of smal j homes than in one of the reeking Jewish
tenement districts. The reason was discovered to be that the Jewish
mother stays at home and takes care

The problem of child conservation can never be met, according to Mrs,
Kelly and to Miss Julia Latarop, chief of the Children's Bureau in Wash
ington, until the federal government insists upon a uniform system of
birth and death registration.! until municipalities wake up to the fact that
they cannot cure an evil untfl! they have made a study of its existence.
Missi Lathrop's investigations in the field of child welfare have been
balked at every turn becaus'of the lax systems of birth registration and
because the babV-saving work in most of our cities is ;in the hands of
outside agencies, charitable I (Organizations and visiting nurse, societies.'
While these agencies are doing their best to grapple with. the conditions,
they cannot do adequate work until the whole .matter is taken over by
municipalities; and they are pimply called in as co-operating factors in the
attempt to save the children. j ' ; ' ;
A system of birth registration which dates several months before the

Michigan Students
Urge Cleaner Life
Drinking After Tictortes, Profanity
and Betting Are to Be Opposed by
Ann -Arbor Athletes.
Ann Arbor, Mich.J Dec. 12. Univer
sity of Michigan athletes have banded
themselves together in a movement
aimed to abolish unclean practices by
the student body and athletes them
selves In connection with Intercol
legiate, athletic competition. Drinking
after victories, betting on games, pro
fanity by team members and the use
of tobacco at mass meetings In honor
of varsity teams arc . the principal
points aimed at by the new move
ment, which -is expected to spread to
other universities.
The text of jthe resolution adopted
continues:
"We also wish to stand against
the sentiment that athletes .are of
necessity a hard and tough group of
individuals, and we wish to encourage
the development of the , clean and
manly type which will stand out as
the true Michigan athletes. We fur
ther encourage and give our hearty
support to any movement or practice
which has as its purpose the general
moral, athletic and academic uplift of
the university. 1
This movement has been organized
and carried on. by the athletes them
selves, Lewis C. Rolmacn of Iron
River, varsity left tackle, being the
guiding hand in the matter. Several
meetings have been held, but the
matter received no- publicity until
practically all of the athletes had al
lied, themselves with the new organ
