Post-War TB Rise Warned By West Virginia Health Chief
West Virginia faces a postwar rise in tuberculosis due to wartime factors such as women in industry and population shifts, warned State Health Commissioner J. Fr. Offner. He noted increased exposure among young women and loss of contact with cases as families move after the war. The state’s mobile X-ray unit, with 13 956 screenings, showed a 33 percent drop in parative cases from the prior year, a trend Offner called likely a paper decrease rather than an actual fall. He cited Charleston and Point Pleasant industrial surveys and 1 124 positive cases with 295 suspicious and 1 689 diseases in the year ending June 30, 1943.

Fertilizer prospects rise for 1945 season supply
War Food Administration urges farmers to order and accept early fertilizer deliveries to secure enhanced supplies for 1945. West Virginia University economist Robert S. Boal notes potash and superphosphate increases await timely production and labor, with nitrogen needs tied to imports of Chilean nitrate and essential war work status. Farmers should haul and distribute fertilizer themselves to maximize available materials.
