Patent Issued To
Henry J. Pritts

Henry J Pritts of Kitzmillcr was
the recipient on April 8, of U S
patent #2,74O,435, entitled Hand
Operated Wire Strengthening Tool"
This invention pertains to a novel
hand-operated tool for bending or
Strengthening steel wires, cables or
similar articles. II is intended pri-
marily for removing kinks from
mine trolley wires, the straighten-
ing of which presents special prob
lens because they are usually To-
Gated very close to the heading or
roof of the mine where there is not
enough room to manipulate a tool
to any great degree. Mr. Prtts'
contrivance overcomes this limita-
ton because it enables the user to
remove bends in any direction
while working from only one side
of the wire. Thus it may also oper-
ate effectively on wires which lie
on the ground
Mr. Pritts' device consists es-
sentially of two rigid arms with
aligned notches for receiving and
holding stretch of the wire be-
tween them. These arms are at
tached by means of a brace member
and a sleeve to an elongated handle
to which. in turn, another handle
is pivotally affixed. Associated with
the latter is a rod or bar that is
slideable within the sleeve and the
upper portion of which also con
tains interviewing notch and is
located between the two rigid arms.
In the use of Nh Pritts' tool, the
straight portions of the wire on
either side of the kink are po-
sitioncd in the notchcs Of the rigid
arms. The pivotcd handle of the
device is then adjusted so that the
notch in its associated movable
rod receives the kink of the wire.
Following this, it is an easy matter
to eliminate the kink by manipu-
latIng the pivotcd handle until the
notch in the movable rod is aligned
with the notchcs Of the rigid arms.
In other words Mr. Pritts' con-
trivancc grasps the trolley wire at
three points, with the middle point
being movable in either direction

Use Ladders Safely
Around the Farm

Although ladders arc simple
and commonplace items on the
farm, unsafe use of them frequent
ly results in accidents com
mented Guy w. Gienger, Universi-
ty of Maryland agricultural engi-
neer A brief moment of careless
ness or slight disregard for safe
practice can quickly cancel the adj
vantages of the tools simplicity
and the users experience.
Fortunately, the rules for safety
in using ladders are as simple as
the tool itself. The National Safe
ty Council recommends the follow
ing precautions against ladder ac-
cidents:
/. Face ladder when climbing
2. Don't climb a ladder when
shoes are covered with snow, mud
or grease.
3. Work facing the ladder and
hold on with one hand.
q. Never use in horizontal posi-
ton. Extension and single ladders
are not designed for such loads.
5. When climbing to roof, top of
ladder should extend two feet
above edge of roof.
g. Make sure step ladder is fully
spread and locked, with all four
legs resting on level base.
7. Never stand on top of step
ladder.
Farmers are reminded to inspect
ladders periodically for rusted or
loose bolts and nails, cracked, rot
ten or loose rungs or supports If
ladders are found defective, re-
pairs or requirements should be
made promptly. Never leave lad
der where it will fall or be tipped
over. Ladders should be stored in
readily accessible locations where
they can be secured in a hurry in
case of fire or other emergency.
unless a great part of the civilized
world starts moving out of their
Checker Little worlds into the
larger one that shows concern for
all mankind the sky may really

Something For Mississippi
Negroes Tc Remember

When President Eisenhower in his state of the I'm
ion Message to the Congress last Monday called for
the appointment of bipartisan Congressional Commits
sion to investigate the denial of Civil rights to Negroes
with undoubted reference in large part to Mississippi
where the existence of such conditions all honest and
intelligent people of the state know to be less
true the request did not fail to the emotions
and ancpations of the long suffering Mississippi Negro
for the most part Bringing behind an ever
darkenng curtain of fear separating the Negro from the
White Citizens of the state
If and when such commission is appointed and
such investigation made, whether it takes few
days. few weeks months, years, both during
such investigation, and after the investigators have
departed, their recommendations made, and remedial
action taken, Negroes and white people will be still
living together in the state
1t is we'll therefore that the intelligent and respon-
sbe Negro Citizens of the state remember in this period
of ubilaton and anticipation that living together with
our white neighbors requires of greater and more
enduring spirit than often engendered during the per-
Od of an investigation

The Lord must pardon you first OF

Aids Education

Grants totaling $5,33s, 1887
have been awarded to five Negro
colleges and one organization from
funs raised in the March of Dimes
by the National Foundation for In
fantile Paralysis since 1888.
billiard University has received
1921 ,968.90; Howard University
s12,626.21; Meharry Medical Col
lege $4S7,803.60; National Medical
Associates $2O6, 1890; North Car
DINA College $f12,312.05 and Tus-
kegee Institute has received 81
1876, 67O.S1.
The grants to the colleges en-
abled them to strengthen programs
for the training of nurses, health
educators and physicians; to sup
port the development and opera
ton of Hela cell manufacture for
use in polio prevention; to sup
port virus research; to provide
funds for graduate medical edu-.
cation of physicians seeking board
speciality certification.
In addition, March of Dimes
funds have aided 229 Negro stu
dents to attend graduate schools.
These students have received $414,-
381.31 in scholarship and fellow
ship funds from March of Dimes
contributions.
There remains an acute short
age of trained professional work
ers in special fields. The 1866
March of Dimes must provide ST.
100000 to help meet this need.
There is an almost unbelievable
shortage in trained personnel.
