Homemaker Consultants Hound Manufacturers About Products By GAY PAULEY UPI Women's Editor NEW YORK (UPI)-Those 85,000 homemaker consultants are at it again, dogging manu facturers to improve their pro duets.

K1 sultants are the oay I'auiej part-time work ers for National Family Opin ion, inc., a loledo. Ohio, con sumer research firm. Their newest list of "why don't they?" ranges from improvements in rain wear to home sewing sug gestions. One housewife wrote, "why don't they?" make plastic rain hoods with small shoulder capes attached for better protection in wet weather. Another suggests that boys' shirt patterns correspond in size and measurements to ready in ''do shirts. Still another asked manufac turers not lo put so many Dins in new garments, especially children's clothes where thev are a "safetv hazard" since it is hard to uncover all before a varment goes on. ne corresnondent corrmlain rd that many furniture manu facturers are sacrificing com fort for appearance in chairs "the great majority today are too short backed and long seat ed " she wrote. One complained of the non uniformity of length (or dress b"hs; that some wore too long. V'hile others barely met. in dresses of the same si'c. Other "whv don't they?" sug gestions included: Install all electrical outlets in new housing hi';h enouch to pre vent the stooning. crawling and searching which go on in the older homes. Also place them awav from the center of larec wall areas, where inevitably the ctlpts are behind sofas and piano. Make the appearance of dress ing rooms in stores match the appearance of the dress denart ment itself. The dress sections might be glossy, appealing and expensively done, but fitting rooms look like the hangover of a bargain basement sale. Com mon complaint pins on the floor, a hazard to the shopper who often sheds her shoes to step into a garment instead of pulling it over her head. Put cotton lace trim on cot ton clothes. Ever try to iron cot- j ton at high temperature on the ! iron, then run the iron at the I same heat over the synthetic j lace trims? The lace usually I "melts" against a heat too high.

Make loops in the center back of women's coats as they do men's, for secure hanging when regular coat hangers are not available. Fasten the size label of a garment, especially in children's clothes, so that it will not pull or wash out. While at it, why don't they put sock sizes on both socks with an indelible dye? In homes where children's socks are nearly the same size, sort ing becomes a problem. Market special waxed paper for making sandwiches, with perforations to mark the length needed for the average sand wich. When wrapping sand wiches lor children s lunch, for instance, paper often is wasted because it's torn too long or too short. Make baby food jars the same size at the top as at the sides so no food is left in the jar. Manufacture a granulated no- calorie or low-calorie sweetener with the same bulk as sugar. Good for diabetics or dieters. Then, sugar-free cookies, cakes and other desserts could be made with favorite and familiar recipes and 'sugared' desserts would be possible again.

C. - The United States slipped from 10th to 11th place in 12 in infant mortality rales among 15 coun tries, provisional figures show. Now in 10th place is Ireland, which was in 13th place in ltltil. Still at the top of the list of nations with low infant mortali ty rates are the Netherlands and Sweden. Countries included the rankings are those with pop ulations over 3(10,000, which use the World Health Organization definitions of live birth and of infant death, and which have relatively complete reporting. Mrs. Katherine B. Oetlinger, chief of the Children's Bureau, said that in 1961, the most recent year for which state-by-stale information is available, no stale in the nation had an in fant death rale as low as that of the Netherlands and Sweden. The lowest rate in the country was in Utah (20.3 per 1,000 live births), which about a third higher than rates in Nether lands and Sweden for that year. Figures Listed The heaviest toll of baby deaths continues to be in the first month of life, she pointed out. Seven out of 10 infants born alive in the United States in 11161 who did not live to see their first birthday died in the first month of life. The mortality rale among infants under a day of age continues lo show no im provement. In 19511, lOliO and 1961, Ihe death rale on Ihis first day of life was 10.3 per 1,000 higher than in any year since 1950. There has been some progress in reducing infant mortality among babies who survived the first three days of life, Mrs. Oettinger pointed out. Since 1959, the death rate for babies from 3 to 6 days of age dropped by about 5 per cent a year ( from 2.0 per 1,000 in 1959 lo 1.8 in 1901 ). "Premature birth and inade quate prenatal care are major factors in our failure to reduce infant mortality more rapidly," Mrs. Oetlinger said. "Prema ture termination of pregnancy increases the risk of death in (he newborn period about 20 times. Women who receive no prenatal care have a high inci dence of premature delivery, and many of these babies die or suffer damage of an avoid able nature. Experience in a number of our cities has shown that lack of prenatal care about doubles the incidence of prema turity, and our studies show that the incidence of prematurity is much higher in our large cities than in the country as a whole." More (.'are Needed A study conducted by the Foundation for Medical Re search of 3117.000 deliveries has care programs if we are to make significant reductions in our present infant mortality rate. "The obvious need for this kind of expanded program of maternity care is illustrated by the fact that since 1950, five countries, with infant death rates already lower than in the in United States, cut their rates by from 20 to 40 per cent, while in the United States, the reduc tion in infant mortality over the same period has only been about 13 per cent," she said.
