mortality the subject of its first field study and to include all babies
born in a given calendar year, regardless of whether they lived or died

mothers, physicians, nurses, and others experienced in the care of
children, and also of trained investigators and statisticians, in the
preparation of a schedule which was submitted to them for criticism.
