Widespread poverty and destitution in high rates of tuberculosis, malnutrition, and infant mortality which the country poorly funded health system could do little to combat, because the commission had little money to spend on roads or telecommunication, many rural residents were rural residents were isolated from other communities and practiced a way of life that had remained largely unchanged for generations. The establishment of Canadian and American bases in the early 1940s however sparked an economic revival in Newfoundland and Labrador as millions of foreign dollars were poured into the local economy. The commission which in 1841 reported a surplus for the first time in years suddenly possessed ample resources to initiate much needed social reforms. In August 1942 it made school attendance mandatory and free of charge for children between the ages of seven and 14. It also created a labour relations office to protect the interest of Newfoundland and Labrador contract workers being recruited by North Americans employers. Although he commission increased spending on health care communication and transportation it was the United States and Canadian armed forces that make the largest contributions in these spheres.

The music they had Many people in the war listened to radio and long playing records en masse. By 1940, 96.2% of North-eastern American urban households had radio.
