Excerpt from The Welfare of Infants of Illegitimate Birth in Baltimore: As Affected by a Maryland Law of 1916 Governing the Separation From Their Mothers of Children Under 6 Months Old; Part I. Mortality Among Infants Born Out of Wedlock in 1915 and 1921; Part II. Effect of the Law on the Policies and Work of Social Agencies The mortality rate of for infants born out of wedlock in' l915 was in all probability an understatement of the true rate, since, though it was based on all registered live births and all known deaths'among them of infants under 1 year,4 some additional deaths in this group may have occurred. Of the 955 live - born infants, 256' could not be traced; if each of these cases had been followed until the first birthda wasreached, or to death if the infant died when less than 1, year 01 some deaths undoubtedly would have been added to the number recorded. The study of 1921 was based on the live-born infants whose births (in 1921) were registered in Baltimore and on the known deaths of infants under 1 year of age among them. The rate caleu lated from these registered births and deaths is likewise an under statement of the true rate, since some deaths may have occurred outside Baltimore which would not'have been included. The death rate for infants born out of wedlock in 1921 based on 810 registered births to resident mothers and 104 registered infant deaths, is calculated upon a basis similar to that u on which the 1915 rate was ascertained and seems to be a fair figure or comparison.
