“…The view that the blood of the newborn baby is the major source of the iron to be used later in maintaining haemoglobin levels is well documented (Lintzel, Rechenberger and Schairer, 1944;Hemmeler, 1946;Neander and Vahlquist, 1949;Langley, 1951;McCance and Widdowson, 1951;Josephs, 1953). Smith et al (1955 also showed that transplacental Fes5 was 'diluted' by dietary iron when the infants were 3 to 4 months old.…”

“…Many workers have called attention to the fact that the principal iron reserves of the newborn infant are in the circulating haemoglobin and that the tissue stores are small (Fullerton, 1937;Stearns and McKinley, 1937;Lintzel et al, 1944;Hemmeler, 1946;Neander and Vahlquist, 1949;Langley, 1951 ;McCance and Widdowson, 1951;Josephs, 1953). DeMarsh et al (1941), Wilson et al (1941), and Sturgeon (1956 have calculated theoretically the extent to which the haemoglobin level is increased by the amount of iron present in the placental transfusion.…”

An experiment in helping mentally handicapped men, women, and young people to lead normal working lives is to begin shortly in Northern Ireland. Twelve women and girls, aged 18 and over, will be taken out of special institutions, jobs will be found for them, and they will live in the ordinary community surroundings in a small hostel. The hostel will be in charge of a warden, who will be available to discuss personal problems that arise. The women and girls going into the first hostel are being transferred from special-care centres, where they have received expert training, and they will go out to work each day in the normal way. Some of them will work in local hospitals in the kitchens and laundries, and others may be placed in jobs with outside firms. If this experiment succeeds there will later be separate hostels for men.

“…Much of the iron absorbed, therefore, must have been deposited in the bone marrow and in the muscles. Neither Fontes & Thivolle (1925a) nor Lintzel et al (1944) found the iron in the bodies of kittens to increase much during suckling. Lintzel et al, who found a very high percentage of haemoglobin in the blood at birth and a rather high blood volume, considered that this was the 'store' of iron for the suckling period.…”

“…body iron was relatively less than the gaii in body weight; (c) the source of this iron was the mother's milk. They seem unaware of the work of Smythe & Miller (1929) or of Lintzel et al (1944), whose experiments on this species were numerous and excellent, and who reached essentially the same conclusions.…”

Bunge (1889Bunge ( , 1892 realized that milk contained very little iron and he believed that animals which depended entirely upon it for some time after birth were born with a store of iron in their livers to tide them over the suckling period. These conclusions, which were based largely upon a study of the rabbit and the guinea-pig, had a great influence upon subsequent thought. Bunge (1892) found the rabbit, with a long suckling period, to have a large store of iron in the liver at birth; the guinea-pig, which is able to eat food other than milk from the first day onwards, had not. The essential points of his generalization were therefore: (a) milk is a negligible source of iron; (b) the liver contains enough iron at birth to supply the needs of the growing animal during suckling. It follows at once if the theory is true that suckling animals should have little if any more iron in their bodies at the end of suckling than they had at the beginning, and that unless the store is adequate a state of physiological 'anaemia' is inevitable towards the end of suckling.Fontes & Thivolle (1925 a, b) first showed that this theory required modification by demonstrating that the total amount of iron in puppies increased considerably during suckling, and concluded that the source of this iron was the milk. The increase in total body iron, moreover, was so much greater than the amount which the liver could have contributed to the rest of the body that the value of this 'store' to the puppy was clearly a relatively small one.
