A MONTH ago we stated in this column that, in accordance with recently expressed policy of the Executive Board of the Academy, attention would be given henceforth to significant activities which are being directed toward the improvement of child health and which may, at least in part, have resulted from the Academy's Study of Child Health Services. We then reviewed the "Premature Infant Care Program" which has been instituted in North Carolina to meet deficiencies which had been revealed in the Study's "Pilot State." While progress is being made along the front line of state programs, it is also gratifying to note progress in pediatric education. Subsequent to publication of "Child Health Services and Pediatric Education," specific and detailed information for his own department was sent confidentially to each of the heads of pediatric departments of the medical schools. Thus, each department head could evaluate his own school in comparison with others. In reply we have received some rather dramatic evidence of the effective use which has been made of a knowledge of the facts. The following letter is only one of many of those received recently from deans and professors of pediatrics:
