Praise for Plunket Work in Dominion
Mrs Porter Lee, whose husband is director of the New York School of Social Work, and who has made inquiries in New Zealand for the Carnegie Foundation, has formed a very high opinion of Plunket nursing work in the Dominion. “We have nothing like it in the States,” she said in Auckland. “New Zealand has made w'onderful headway in mothercraft, and 1 would like to see work on similar lines spread over the whole world. You don’t wait for the child to get ill in New Zealand. You put it on the right road to good health.” Mrs Porter Lee, who is also much impressed by the hospitality of the people in the Dominion, added that she hoped, on her return to New York, to make people understand • what the Plunket system was.
