CORN PICKING
SAFETY RULES
Delaware Safety Council Says
Running Corn Picker No
Job For Amateur
LIST SEVEN RULES

Running corn picker is no job
for an amateur, according to the
Delaware Safety Council. 1t re-
quires skill and experience. There
is much more to it than just pull
ing the equipment out and starting
che haEyest. A picker must be
well conditioned and adjusted to
the seasons crop if you expect it
TO operate efficiently. 1t also must
be handled skillfully and safely in
the field to avoid excessive corn
losses. clogging or accidents. Field
stops for repairs, adjustments, and
unclogging increase the chances
for accidents. Any time the oper-
ator leaves the tractor seat, espec-
tally when tired or irritated, he
must increase his guard against
accidents reminds the Council.
Mechanical corn picking replaced
the back breaking and time con-
sHming farm JONI of hand harvest
ing. But the record achievement
of the mechanical picker has been
badly tainted by the heavy toll of
accidents. Each years corn har-
vest brings with it hundreds of
horribly mangled fingers, hands,
arms and legs-not to mention the
deaths. Faulty adjustments and
operating practices, which lead to
clogging and associated accidents,
are also the reason for excessive
corn losses. The Safety Council
points out that before picking
starts, the picker should be check
ed for worn or broken parts, loose
bolts, chains, and belts, etc. Slip
clutches must not be frozen with
paint or rust. Study of the oper-
alton manual will indicate how to
adjust the machine to crop condi-
tions. See that it is operating at
recommended speeds. Examine the
swapping rolls carefully and re-
place them if badly worn. Worn
rolls clog repeatedly and they shell
corn In an emergency, worn rolls
can he roughened by welding beads
of metal on smooth areas. For ex-
tremeiy dry corn conditions or ex-
cessive trash accumulation on
Swapping rolls, special set screws
or Iugs can also be inserted in the
rollers to frelp pull stalks through.
dc they are used when corn is
normal or damp, they make the
roll action too givorous and cause
excessive Smelling.
Getting off row, even in standing
corn, means more clogged pickers
and ears snapped over the side.
Keeping on the row, even in down
corn, feeds most of the stalks
straight through the picker with
out tangling at the swapping rolls.
Driving should be as careful as for
the first cultivation. It's just as
important. Low speed is better,
particularly in adverse field condi-
tions. Swapping rolls have a
change to carry the stalks through,
instead of pulling them up by the
roots or breaking them off. Too
: much speed wastes corn and caus-
{ es clogging. Shouts should be
kept low.
The Delaware Safety Council
lists the following safe corn pick
ing rules.
L. Stop the picker-never reach
into picker when it is running.

Asserts, Chinese
 Nationalists Could Halt Reds In Asia

SEATTLE, (PD A communist assault. on southeast Asia is on the horizon, Senator Taft told a Lincoln Day audience here Tues day night, and "the only chance to stop it is by a Chinese national invasion of communicated terri. tory"
 American arms and training, the Ohioan told 5000 persons in Seattle Civic Auditorium, should be speeded to Chiang Kai-Shek on Formosa and the "6OO,OOO men in his army, navy and air force" to defect this invasion.
 "Will they" he asked in refer ence to President Truman and Secretary of State Acheson, "pre- fer to go on sending American soldiers to the continent of Asia when Chinese soldiers are beg ging to be sent to do the job."
 He asked if there could be hope for such common sense in our national administration until Acheson is thrown out of the Department of State and Truman is thrown out of the White HouSe?"
 He was interrupted 21 times by scattered applause by the audi ence but lengthy and vigorous applause broke out when he men, toned "our greatest soldier: Gen eral Macarthur"
 Three thousand of his audience paid S5 each for tickets to the dinner.

Wildlife Service Requests Funds
 From PribilOfs

WASHINGTON, (R-A gov- ernment agency would like to use profits from the Pribilof Islands seal operations to help finance Fish and Wildlife administration in Alaska.
 Albert M. Day, US. Fish and Wildlife Service director, made the suggestion before the House appropriations subcommittee han ding the agency's budget request for the 12 months beginning July l.
 He referred to the departments situation in Alaska as "desper- ate"
 Sidetracking all or part of the profit from the Pribilof operation into the administrative program, he said, "would be most helpful" in correcting manpower short ages in Alaska. He said the Pribi- lof operation returns about a mil lion and a half dollars profit to the treasury each year.
 Day said the entire territory of Alaska now has only 20 game Wardens-less, he said, than the state of Rhode Island.
 Current appropriations, he added, permit hiring only 50 tenn porary stream guards during the summer months as compared with the 200 guards on the payroll 20 years ago.

With The Negotiators
 Of Korean Armistice

MUNSAN, Korea, (P) - Allied negotiators today accepted a 60- day limit on exchanging prison CTS and offered to compromise their demands for supervising a Korean truce.
 The communists had proposed the 60-day limit. The exchange period is to start when an armis- tice is signed. The agreement does not touch the key question of voluntary repatriation.
 The United Nations Command, holding 132,000 prisoners, had wanted 30 days more than was allowed the Reds to complete the exchange. The Reds list only 11,559 men in Red POW camps.
 There was no word from the communists when they would have ready their new proposed solution for the fifth and final item of the armistice agenda. This deals with recommendations to the governments concerned for a settlement of the Korean problem.

Bill Would Allow More Civil Defense Aid To Alaska

WASHINGTON, (P) Tn e House Rules Committee gave clearance today for House consid- eration of a bill which would allow increased federal contribu- tions for civil defense in Alaska.
 The Senate already has ap- proved the legislation.
 The measure would exempt thinly-settled Alaska from re- quirement of the Civil Defense Law that federal aid for air raid shelters and other protective fa- cilitieS be matched on 50-50 basis. -...
 Delegate Bartlett said the terri torial legislature already h S made a greater per capita appro- priation for civil defense than any state except New York.
 He expressed the belief that Alaska can be successfully de- fended. But he also noted that a Siberia-based jet plane could be over Nome in seven minutes from takeOff or over Fairbanks or An chorage in an hour.

COP Lincoln Day Orators Blast The Administration
(BY THE ASSOCIATED PREss)

Republicans from coast to coast took a deep breath We'd nesday after Lincoln Day speeches aimed mostly as blasts against the Democratic administration.
 Harold Stassen, former gover- nor of Minnesota, at Salt Lake City, called for ending seven years of mismanaged Missouri misrule of our nations govern ment. He accused the Truman ad- ministration of waste, loose spend ing and unnecessary loss of lives of American sons."
 Stassen and Taft were in accord on one point-Gen. Douglas Mac Arthur's future. Stassen said he would restore Macarthur as head of US. Far Eastern forces. Taft said he would revamp US. mili- tary leadership and certainly make use of Gen. MacArthur's ability"
 But Democrat in Washington said the oration indicate Republi- cans have "gone long way" from Abraham Lincoln's principles. Said Senator Moody of Michigan:
 "A few of them are worthy spokesmen. But others, I regret to say, are using the anniversary of this great mans birth merely as a stage-setting for unbridled at- tacks on the very things he stood for-on government action to inn plement the human rights and human justice to which he dedi- cated his career and his life"
