Warns Danger In
Blasting Caps

Police Chief II. S. Weaver
today issued a warning about
blasting caps which last year
blinded or manned over a
hundred youngsters.
The caps-used to trigger
dynamite charges-may ap-
pear to a child as being harm
less. but "in the hands of any
inexperienced persons they are
extremely dangerous" the chief
said.
In a press statement aimed
at both children and adults,
Chief Weaver warned, "a child
picking up blasting cap is in
deadly danger"
He urged anyone finding a
cap to report it to a law en-
forcement officer Immediately.
They know how to dispose of
them safely.
Blasting caps may be recog-
nized as small. bright metallic
cylinders, made Of either alu-
minum or copper and about
as big around as a lead peencil.
They are loaded with power
full and sensitive explosive
charges.
One type has an open end
and is donated by the flame
from a fuse. 1t is about one
and one-half inches long.
Another type has two wires
extending from one end so it can
be fired by electric current.
These caps are from two to five
and one-half inches long.
Men who handle explosives
in their daily work accord
blasting caps even greater res
pect and caution than dyna-
mite. To the youngsters, how
ever, who would run from
stick of dynamite, the shiny
blasting caps are a fascinating
toy.
Unfortunately, Chief Weaver
continued, blasting caps are
sometimes lost or stolen. A
child finding a cap has an ir-
resistible urge to hit it with
a stone or probe it with a knife.
This is almost certain to ex-
plode the sensitive charge in
the cap.
When a cap explodes, hun
dreds Of pieces of metal fly out
in all directions sometimes as
far as 200 feet. Even at that
distance, the bits of sharp met
al are hurled with enough force
to cause serious injury, even
death.
To sum up, the chief says
the only advice you can give
a child is Don't Touch Blast
ing Caps"
