Infant and maternal mortality rates In Oregon have declined during the reconversion period following World War II and are now among the lowest in the na tion, the state board of health said in its biennial report Satur day. Communicable disease incidence was low with the exception of a slight increase in cases and deaths from diphtheria, the report said. The report stressed that 60 per cent of financial support for the Oregon state board of health pro gram the pat biennium came from the federal government. ' "There are strong indications." the report continued, "that this federal support will be dras tically uitailed. Unless state Mjpport is increased to offset the anticipated los of federal funds, Oregon's health work will be se rioiisl., jeopardized." Special consideration of the legislature was asked in connec tion with additional public health personnel and more adequate systems of garbage disposal. The health board said legislation was needd to license hospitals so that Oregon may share in financial assistance offered through enact ment of federal hospital construc tion laws. The handicapped children's program was referred to as an outstanding project. Progress in the control and cure f tuberculosis in Oregon also was emphasised. During the two-year period beginning July 1. 1944. the three chest X-ray units owned and operated by the Oregon Tu- berculosi association X-rayed 210.843 persons.
