Return To Natural Feeding Of Babies Advocated
Concern at the lessening rate of: natural feeding of babies born in New Zeaiand is expressed in the report to be ;presented • to the fortieth annual meetihg of the Auckland Plunket -Society . , Since 84 per cent pf baibies came under the care of Plunket ' sisters, the society was in a .position to know' how poor the percentage of; babies fed naturally was, the report stated. If the society was to- keep its place at the head of child welfare work, a solution must be found, and it was felt desirable that all who worked for the health ahd welfare of mothers and babies should strive to restore the natural feeding of infants to the high level of a few years ago.
