Among groups Interested-in child health were those studying one distinct phase, da f 9? instance. the K-death rate Of children , under 'one year of I age. Xnother group was specializing on the problems of tuberculosis. A third ; group, was Interested in school children and theirv educa tion. 'These 'groups were just re alizing, that the problem of child health ; . could not be solved by treating individual phases, when the war broke out and energies were pooled. ' ' "From .war; lessons child workers.-became convinced i that diffjh culties?of latter life could best bie eliminated ! by V early. rounde4. health education for children. Th!e public health -nursing groups fol lowed. J ' ' First' concrete ex?eriment in working out this theory was made by . the permanent child health council, which appropriated 200 000 for. this type of educational work in the schools at Mansfield.

North Dakota, a city of 25,000 popula tion, at Rutherford county. TennJ. a third at Athens. Oa. That left a fourth for the mountain and Pa cific states. ; Twenty-eight towns reauested the services of this last demon stration, group. After Investiga tion the choice narrowed down to San Jose, California; Boulder, Col orado, or Salem. Oregon. In keeping with a definite nolt- cy certain conditions had to be met by the successful, candidate. Pledge of cooperation had to be extended by, such organizations as city .ornciais. city council, publie schools, physicians organization. dentists, chamber of commerce. luncheon clubs. , ( Successful candidates were ask ed to pay such Items as rent cjf neadquarters-. electric and water bills, etc., so that ; the common wealth fund might go directly intb the demonstration work. I Assurance was reauired that. should ; the I demonstration prove the value of Its labors, the com munity would gradually take ovejr Its functions so that when the demonstration withdrew, it would leave a complete - local worklne organization In its place. s Salem offered- all-of this.

This was the reply of Command er MacMillan, one of three white survivors j of Commander R. E. Peary's expedition, to Capt. Roald Amundsen's assertions. that Cook's claims to having - discovered the pole were as sound a tearys. i . ' ''There Is no doubt at all,? said Commander MacMillan.'

T : :-r.5;-:. . Peart's "claim to having reached the pole is as good as Amundsen's to having reached the south pole." DENVER, Oolo Jan. 23. (By Associated Press.) - Vilhjalmur sietansson, noted Arctic explorer, tonight took issue with the state ment made In Fort Worth today by Roald Amundsen who declared Dr. Frederick A. Cook's claim, to discovery of the. north pole was aa plausible es that of the late' Commander Robert E. Peary. "If quoted correctly. -:- Amund sen's, statement is most extrapr dinary." Stefansson said. ?'I have always disagreed with Amundsen even on important points --but neVer more violently than this. "Peary had a lifetime of integ rity behind him, while Cook's career ha been one of consistent raking ever since he faked the Mount ;VIcKinley climb,- when he claimed to have . ascendedto the crest, and it was later proved that he was never more than half way to the top. . -, , ; -s . .. "His career of faking continued from that time until it landed him In the federal 'prison. ' ' "Cook's story. reads. throughout like fiction, while Peary's reads like fact.
