Abstract
Three hundred and thirty‐seven Caucasian women and 150 negroid women who were resident in an inner London health district, who gave birth in the district's maternity unit and who were transferred home before 6 days after delivery were studied in respect of their intentions and practices for feeding their babies. Differences in the numbers breast feeding within and between various sub‐groups of the two racial groups were compared and inferences drawn in respect of to which group effort in promoting breast feeding should be directed.
