r "Portland. babies : ax not getting
a. square deal," averred Dr. , C.
UlyBses Moore, medical director of
the Cooperative Infant Welfare soci
ety of Oregon. In aa address at the
Well Baby Week program in Meier
A FYanlc auditorium, Tuesday After

"Any city with a death raU for the
first year of life of over 60 out of every
1000 babies born Is not el vlng Its babies
a-square, deal," be quoted the New York"
child welfare .committee. : " - -,"rorUasd'
Infant mortality rate has
yet to b brought that low." N
Dr. Moore - called upon the mothers
and fathers of Portland to anawer this
question :
. 'What per cent of our babies should
di before they are I year old? All who
at birth weigh, five pounds or less? All
who have eome deformity, disease or
dJsfigrurement?"
QUESTION A5SWEEED
At the conclusion of his address Dr.
Moore answered his own question:
"Our constitution guarantees every in
dividual three things : Life, liberty and
the pursuit of happiness. In Portland
all three are denied to about 7 per cent
of the people who come to our city. This
is done the first two years of their resi
dence' with us.
"We know that with a climate, a city
and a people such as ours, this slaugh
ter of the, innocents is both unnecessary
and unfair.' Ignorance is the Uerod that
decapitates our children, -, usually the
first born ' -
The weir babjr clinic conducted in
South Portland, explained the medical
director, is an organised effort to reach;
well babies with the safeguards of health;
before, illness and disease lay bold upon
them. ; r . T
5KTT CXIJCIC ruimrED
J Fourteen such well baby clinics, he
submitted, would result in cutting the
infant' mortality rate of Portland in two.
Another 'well baby clinic is soon to be
tst&bliahed from funds contributed to
the Community Chest. '
"Our well baby clinic in Portland has
been- operating only seven months," he
explained. "We "have examined 140, If
our babies had died at the same Tate as
the rest of Portland babies we ' should
have lost five. We have not lost one."
The Well Baby week" programs are
being conducted each morning and aft
ernoon Jhis week in the Meier & .Frank
auditorium under auspices of the Infant
Welfare society. Information given is
essentially practical.' All Portland
mothers have been invited. There is no
admission charge. J
