It evaluated the national state of child care and protection and, through its reports, made recommendations for child welfare services on all governmental levels. Dr. Eugene Lindsay Bishop, 1886-1951, was commissioner of the Tennessee State Health Department in 1930. He served on the conference's Committee on Public Health Organization.
