Katie Allison Granju posted on Aug 6 about a great news release from U. of
Penn Med.Ctr, released 7/31, and gave their email.  I wanted to thank them
and I urge you all to do so whenever pos. media reports are seen. We need
more pos. press during WBW!

Mr. Hoke:
Thank you so much for the very positive news release about breastfeeding
("Mother's Milk: Nutrition and Nurture for Infants - And the Best Defense
Against Disease"), released at the start of World Breastfeeding Week.  The
public needs more information about the superiority of breastmilk and
breastfeeding and of the numerous serious health hazards caused by artificial
feeding.  I look forward to more reports on research done by Dr. Clevenger
and his colleagues at Penn.

Sincerely,
