Excerpt from The Promotion of the Welfare and Hygiene of Maternity and Infancy: The Administration of the Act of Congress of November 23, 1921; Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 1926 Each year the State bureau directors meet in conference in Washington, at a time they decide upon, to consider features of their administration upon which they agree that discussion is desir able. In the interim between conferences they exchange with one another new literature which is prepared in their bureaus, as well as information relating to special features of their work. Through this interchange of ideas a certain similarity of activities has de yeleped in many of the States, though the several States may have entirely different methods of carrying on the same activities. Each State has its individual problems relating to its infant mortality rate or its maternal mortality rate, and the plans and the work in the State must meet the local conditions and needs. A plan of work involving supervision of individual mothers and babies is adapted to the needs of a compact little industrial State but would not be feasible in a State in which vast distances combine with cold, snow, or frequent rains to bring about the isolation of the rural people. In such States other programs of instruction and care of mothers and babies must be developed. In States having a high maternal mortality among certain races employing unskilled, un clean, ignorant, and superstitious midwives the State program will include instruction and supervision of the midwives. These are but a few of the various conditions to be met. Consequently the determination of their own plans by the States is an important feature of the administration of the act and adds immeasurably to the adaptation of the work to local needs.
