          Jeffrey's superb letter, doubtless by now amended slightly
          to take account of Kathy Dettwyler and Wendy Funk's
          pertinent remarks, is a down-to-earth and faithful
          translation of the principles laid down in the preambular
          and operative paras. of the International Code of Marketing
          of Breast-milk Substitutes, esp. arts. 4 (ensuring objective
          and consistent information on infant and young child
          feeding), 6 (taking appropriate measures to encourage and
          protect breast-feeding through the health care system), 7
          (the role of health workers), and 9 (the red-flag warnings
          that should appear on infant-formula labels). Bravo! Worth
          sharing, worth repeating!
