New York 'V Each year
approximately 93,000 children
are adopted in this county. But
another 300.000 need homes.
Carl and Helen Doss, parents
of a dozen adopted children, call
these 300,000 the "lost" be
cause they are passed from one
unwilling relative to another or
placed in private schools, board
ed out and forgotten.
"We cannot be smug and say
that our present-day haphazard
methods and laws of child care
are adequate so long as they al
low such tragedies to beset the
lives of our future citizens,"' said
the couple.
Their estimate of the number
of children in need of parents is
given in their new book, "If You
Adopt A Child." Doss, a Metho
dist minister, and his wife took
into tbeir home 12 children con
sidered "unadoptable" at the

Book Tells Of Family
They told of their own family
in an earlier book.
The Dosses, who live with their
brood in Redlands, Calif., call
their new work the only com
plete adoption guide yet to ap
pear. Certainly the two cover the
field from the history of adop
tion in this country Massachu
setts was the first state to permit
legal adoption with a law passed
in 1851 to advice on where to
turn if you want to adopt "The
agency nearest your home."
They believe an adopted child
should know his heritage "and
he should be told as soon as he
is old enough to understand."
Close friends and relatives also
should know.
"But otherwise," said the cou
ple, "There is no more reason to
go around declaring that your
child is adopted than there is for
you to go around declaring to all
and sundry that you are married,
a Democrat and member of the
Masonic Lodge."
Call For Improvement
They called for improvement
and uniformity of adoption reg
ulations in the United States and
Canada. "Else," they said, "black
markets will continue to flourish.
With the lack of national laws,
there are no ways to stop inter
slate racketeering of babies and
no penalties for engaging in it."
An adopted child's longing and
need for love is greater than that
of another child, said lbe Dosses,
"because he has been separated
from his natural mother, some
times again from his boarding
mother or mothers."
They told of one 7-year-old boy
who had been shifted from
boarding home to boarding home,
waiting for permanent parents,
the social worker told him about
a Mr. and Mrs. Jones who want
ed to adopt him . . . and explain
ed to him what the term meant.
The next day the worker took
the small boy to the Jones home
to be introduced. The child
gravely shook hands with his
new father and then turned to
the woman who was to be his
new mother. "This is mama
Jones," said the worker. "Not
mama Jones," said the boy, as he
put his arms around her neck,
"but mama for always."

size measurements a year ago
The new patterns increased bust
measurements one to two inches
but they still are generally an
inch short of the standard rec
ommended by the government.
Too Small
In a "misses" size 16, for ex
ample, the bust size was in
creased from 34 to 36 inches
in the new patterns. But the
government's "commercial stan
dard" recommends a 37-inch al
lowance for a size 16.
In many sizes, federal bosom
standards are a good three inch
es beyond the point from whicn
pattern makers expanded one
year ago.
"I don't exactly know why,"
the home economist said. "I guess
it's a combination of growth and
better uplift brassieres.
"Sizing has changed because
of the uplift brassiere," she said.
The actual measurements on
which the government standards
are based were made by Agn
culture Department research
workers in 1939 and 1940 Fed
eral statistical experts have as
sured any new mass measure
ment of the American female
figure probably would not show
any significant changes in the
most popular dress sizes.
Major mail order houses ad
opted federal bosom measure
ments for their garments about
four years ago. But they found
last year's changes too great to
make in a single jump.
The Agriculture Department
said thee new patterns ; narrow
bust measurements.
"These changes," it said, "Ap
pear to be in line with the in
dustry's staled reason for mak
ing the change the appear
ance of a new figure type result
ing from the use of modern
foundation garments."
A home economist said this of
ficial gobbledegook merely
means that while uplift bras
sieres have been expanding bos
om sizes, modern girdles have
been bringing hip measurements
under better control.
