Propose Whistle
To Enable Blind
ToSunnonHelp

Unable to see their way, aided only
by a cane or stick and by memory,
blind persons in the District may
soon be able to summon police aid
or the aid of passersby if they need
assistance by blowing a whistle, it
was learned today Negotiations are
in progress between an association
for aid of the blind and the police
department which will probably lead
to early adoption of specific type
of whistle, somewhat similar to the
police whistle
A specimen whistle has been sub
mitted to the police department, which
stands ready to give the whistle its
approval when asked, according to
Inspector W. s. Shelby.
