"The report seated. ‘dif- ferences neither in poverty. bad housing, insufficient feeding, de- fective sanitation, disease. indus- trial occupation of women nor malnutrition of mothers can be re- garded as adequate to explain‘ the excessive and widespread difference between urban and rural rates of infant mortality." 01130810 OATAIII "more seems to be little doubt that the invisible acid and pit left in the atmosphere by impro- per combustion lead chronic catsrrh or more serious respirator? diseases." states the bulletin.
