SAVE LIVE OF BABI Milk Station Asks Financial Aid for Work of Mercy. “This year the United States V- ernment has asked us to bend every effort to conserve child life, and has established a program for a cderal Children’s Year to aid in this pur pose. The president of the United States has endorsed this movement of the United States Department of Labor, and the Council of Nationaol Defense in the following words: Next to the duty of doing everything pos- sible for the soldiers at the front, there can be, it seems to me, no more patriotic duty than that of protecting the children who constitute one- third of the population * * 1 trust that the year will not only see the goal reached of saving 100,000 lives of infants and young children, but that the work may be so successful- ly developed as to set up certain ir- reducible standards for the nealth, education and work of the American child’.” This call to save the babies, now world wide in its scope and empha- sized by the National Government, i3 a call to the New Britain citizen to help support the Child Welfare and Milk Station Association. For seven years New Britain has demonstrated the importance :t at- taches to the modern movement of conservation of infant life through preventive means: its milk station has consequently expanded in its demands as it has in its usefulness. At this time when the preparation for its heavy summer’'s work must be made, the milk station needs and asks for the fullest possible financial support from New Britain’s people.
