359. During the years following the First World War, however, Federal, State, and local governments gradually began to exercise a measure of control over the day nurseries, chiefly by licensing them and by inspection and regulating the condition within the nurseries.

译文　然而在一战后的几年里，联邦政府、各州、各地方政府逐渐开始采取措施来控制日托，方式主要是通过向托儿所发放执照、审查并管理其条件。
