OF THE UNITED THE OF
Child Health Day, 1974
By the President of the United States of America
A Proclamation
For more than four decades, America has set aside a special day
each year to emphasize the importance of child health.
In these decades, we have written a story of significant progress in
child health, as the national infant mortality rate has been sharply cut
and many childhood diseases have been conquered or diminished in their
severity. For many handicapped children, in particular, advances in
surgical techniques and treatment have created new hope for happy,
productive lives.
We can be proud of this progress. Yet, as every parent knows, the
threat of serious disease still hangs over the lives of our children, striking
fear in the hearts of those who love and cherish them. Our challenge-
and the one to which this Administration will be committed-is to con-
tinue steadfastly in reducing the health hazards to children through
adequate programs which will assure their continued good health
throughout childhood.
The Congress has, by the Joint Resolution of May 18, 1928 (36
U.S.C. 143), requested that the President of the United States annually
issue a proclamation declaring the first Monday in October as Child
Health Day.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, GERALD R. FORD, President of the
United States of America, do hereby proclaim Monday, October 7,
1974, as Child Health Day.
I invite all agencies and organizations concerned with child health to
unite upon that day in the observance of such activities as will accelerate
our progress towards the promotion and protection of child health.
In addition, Child Health Day is an appropriate time to salute the
work which the United Nations, through its specialized agencies and the
United Nations Children's Fund, is doing to improve the health of the
children around the world.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this fifth
day of October, in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred seventy-four,
and of the Independence of the United States of America the one
hundred ninety-ninth.
Gerall R. Ford
OF THE UNITED THE
OF
Child Health Day, 1975
By the President of the United States of America
A Proclamation
In the years since 1928, when Child Health Day was first proclaimed, our
concept of health has acquired new dimensions. No longer do we consider health
merely the timely treatment and cure of illness. Health now encompasses the
prevention of those conditions which can lead to illness.
Scientific technology and medical research have given us many new tools to
help in the essential tasks of preventing illness or conditions which can cripple.
Thanks to vaccines which have been developed in recent decades, poliomyelitis
is no longer the widespread crippler it once was. Children can now be protected
against measles and the risk of death or brain damage resulting from this disease.
Immunization against rubella not only protects young children, but also protects
pregnant women from contracting the disease and risking the mental health of
their unborn children.
Future challenge includes prevention of such divergent problems as birth
abnormality, the battered child syndrome and the teen-age alcoholic, drug addict
or criminal.
In our Bicentennial year as a Nation, we are charting a course for the future
that will enable us to complete the American dream. We can be certain that future
scientific discoveries will help to control and conquer other conditions which now
cripple or otherwise handicap children. For the present, each of us must resolve to
apply the knowledge and the means now at hand for the fullest protection of our
children's health.
As an expression of its concern, the Congress, by joint resolution (36 U.S.C.
143), has asked the President to designate the first Monday in October as Child
Health Day.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, GERALD R. FORD, President of the United
States of America, do proclaim Monday, October 6, 1975, as Child Health Day.
I ask American parents on Child Health Day this year to place special
emphasis on ensuring protection for their children against all diseases for which
safe and effective vaccines are now available.
I call upon all citizens, agencies and organizations interested in child welfare
to promote and observe appropriate activities, especially those which emphasize
the preventive immunizations so necessary for proper health care.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this twenty-
fourth day of September, in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred seventy-five,
and of the Independence of the United States of American the two hundredth.
Gerall R. Ford
OF THE UNITED 3H5 OF
Child Health Day, 1976
By the President of the United States of America
A Proclamation
In this year of our Bicentennial we have in many ways expressed our pride in the
heritage which our forebears have bequeathed to us. But we are not solely heirs to
this great legacy; we are also trustees. Our responsibility is to protect, preserve, and
enhance it in anticipation of the day when our children will assume responsibility for
the perpetuation of the ideals which have sustained this republic for two centuries.
It is our task to insure that they are prepared for that day. To that end, our
concern for their health and well-being cannot be overstated. Our concern is
reflected in our continuing efforts to reduce infant mortality, eliminate childhood
diseases and handicaps, and expand preventive health services. The challenges of
poliomyelitis, measles, and rubella led to the development of vaccines. Our resolution
has been tested by the challenges of birth abnormality, child abuse, and teenage
alcoholism and drug abuse.
We have learned of steps prospective mothers can take during the prenatal period
to lessen the likelihood their children will suffer from the tragedy of mental retardation,
and we must assure that this vital information is available. We must continue to
explore those avenues of basic and applied research necessary to assure that every
child will be born with the physical and mental capacity to participate fully in our
national life.
To encourage awareness of the fundamental necessity of a year-round program
for the protection and development of the health of the Nation's children, the Con-
gress, by joint resolution of May 18, 1928, as amended (36 U.S.C. 143), has requested
the President to issue annually a proclamation designating the first Monday in
October as Child Health Day and calling for its appropriate observance.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, GERALD R. FORD, President of the United States
of America, do hereby proclaim Monday, October 4, 1976, as Child Health Day
and I invite all Americans, as well as all agencies and organizations dedicated to the
well-being of children, to unite on that day in support of activities that will alert
each of us to our separate and collective responsibilities to protect and enhance the
health of America's children.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this twenty-second
day of September, in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred seventy-six, and of the
Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and first.

Dear Dr. Bridge:
Thank you for your letter of December 20th regarding the
President's Child Health Day Proclamation.
Ceremonial copies of proclamations, such as the one which
you received, are sent to individuals by us on behalf of the
President as a token of appreciation for their contributions
in an area of importance to our national life. They are
also distributed to organizations for use in connection with
events they may be holding to highlight a particular ob-
servance.
The Child Health Day Proclamation has been issued by the
President annually since 1928 at the request of Congress.
The purpose is to focus national attention on the many ad-
vancements that have been made and the work that remains
to be done in the treatment of children's diseases. Your
name was included on our list of 46 recipients in recognition
of your efforts on the Committee on Indian Health of the
American Academy of Pediatries.
With best wishes,
Sincerely,
