76 DISCUSSION 



These seem to be briefly the provisions in England for the educa- 

 tion, licensure and control of midwives. 



A resolution was presented by Mr. Kruesi: "Be it resolved, 

 at this first meeting of the Association for the Study and Pre- 

 vention of Infant Mortality, that the state or local boards of 

 health shall examine and license as midwives only nurses who 

 have had a thorough obstetrical training."
