'Foster-Mothers' For

By Ritchie Calder

A VERY special kind of milkbar is being provided for babies by Queen Charlotto's Hospital, London. By pasteurising, prosor- ving and froozing human milk it will ensure the natural feeding of Infants whose mothers cannot provido it,

This "Buronu," which was opened re- cently, has been made possible, through the National Birthday Trust, by Sir Jullen Cahn, who has equipped it and is guaranteeing the expenses for a year.

Similar methods are used in Russia, Gor- many, and the United States, where the Mation of Queen Charlotte's, Miss E. G. Dare, studied the technique on a recent visit.. Doctors, backed by statistics, which in the United States show that 144 out of 1,700 artificially fed babies died, compared with 15 out of 9,750 naturally fed, insist that natural feeding is of first importance.

Mothers who have a surplus of milk after fooding their own babies will be visited in their homes by the Queen Charlotte experts. Careful medical tests will be made of the mothers and of the milk,

For every ounce of milk which thes "foster mothers" supply for the benefit of other babies they will be paid 3d. by the Hospital.
