Excerpt from Minutes of Discussion at an Informal Conference to Consider Generally the Subject of "Pediatrics," 1919 Now, ladies and gentlemen, what I suggest we should do is to have a. Talk round the table to-day in an informal wary, follow ing the agenda as far as may be convenient to us, and I hope you will feel quite free to introduce any subject under this heading which you think may be useful in the way of suggestions for a Ministry of Health or for action in England. I need scarcely remind you that a good deal has been done in England during, the last ten or fifteen years in the way of maternity work, infant. Welfare centres, schools for mothers, and so forth.* Undoubt edly as a partial result of that there has been a reduction in infant mortality; due no doubt to many factors but certainly in part to that. Personally, I think a good deal of the redue tion in the mortality is due to a wider knowledge in regard to these matters, more public attention having been drawn to them, so that mothers are almost necessarily more attentive to the importance of these things. Now, I think probably the best plan is for us to hear from those who are present with regard to Pediatrics in America, Italy, and New Zealand, before we consider Item No. 5 on the agenda. No. 5 on the agenda, as you will see, is Present demands of Examining Bodies in Pediatrics and facilities for teaching this subject in Great Britain. Again, let me remind you that I am not responsible for this agenda; these subjects have been handed down to me, but before we can really do much with No. 5, I think we want to hear the evidence under No. 2, no. 3 and no. 4.
