Description

The Road to Victory Over Tuberculosis: In these times when our attention is focused upon the battlefronts throughout the world, we are inclined to forget an enemy within our boundaries. This destructive enemy is tuberculosis, the leading cause of death between the ages of 15 and 45, which kills 175 people every day of the year. It is a formidable foe, and not to be reckoned with lightly. Indeed, the armed forces are well aware of its danger. Upon induction every man is to be given an X-ray of his chest. This is one of the fundamental methods of combatting the disease. In this way tuberculosis cases are detected and given proper attention.
