Abstract

The year 1930 was marked by an event of great significance for the well-being of children, namely, the White House Conference on Child Health and Protection. This will be discussed following the presentation of certain facts regarding vital statistics, numbers and age distribution of children. Many important developments regarding children such as activities of child clinics, day nurseries, etc., are omitted because yearly data are not available. Following these discussions will be presented other important events of the year affecting children.
