July 19-25 Set For Farm Safety CLEMSON.—The week of July 19-25 has been officially proclaim ed National Farm Safety Week. President Eisenhower, in calling upon the nation to observe the week, requested every farm resi dent to cooperate in an all-out ef fort to make 1953 as accident-free as possible. This will he the 10th year in which National Farm Safety Week has been sponsored J>y the Nation al Safety Council and the U. S. Department of Agriculture, in co operation with the farm safety ac tivities of states and counties, the farm organizations, farm press and radio, and many other groups interested in agriculture. Secretary of Agriculture Ezra Taft Benson in a recent state ment points out that in 1951, the last year for which estimates are available, 14.500 farm people lost their lives as a result of accidents. This number, large as it is, rep resents a reduction of one-fifth from the estimated annual rate in 1941. The reduction in the rate of fatal accidents to farm people is in great measure due to the concerted efforts of organizations throughout the country which have helped to create safety con sciousness among farm residents. “The nation has made real progress in farm safety in the ten years since National Farm Safety Week was instituted, but we can do more,’’ Secretary Benson states. “While the farm accident rate has come down substantially, it has not come down enough. Exper iences have shown time and time again that when people give con tinuing attention to the task of eliminating hazards, the accident rate falls. “Although only one week is officially designated for promot ing the farm safety program, its observance provides an opportun ity for calling attention to the year-round problem of farm and home safety,” he adds. Dr. Rankin, 59, Newberry Native, Died Saturday Fifty-nine-year-old Dr. M. The- ron Rankin, executive secretary of the Southern Baptist Foreign mis sion Board, died at his home at Richmond, Ya., last Saturday. He was a native of Newberry. Funeral services were held at 3 o’clock Monday afternoon at the First Baptist Church in Richmond. Dr. Rankin formerly was a miss ionary to China. He became sec retary to the Orient in 1935. He supervised the Southern Baptist Board’s mission work in China and Japan. During World War II he was captured and was interned for six months. He was repatriated in September, 1952. He is survived by four broth ers and two sisters. They are John E. Rankin, Anderson; Lloyd C. Rankin, Owatonna, Minn.; Manly W. Rankin, New Orleans; Mrs. J. R. Bailey, Tampa, Fla.; and Mrs. Gladys Cook, Greeleyville. Walter Richardson, spokesman for the Annual Jolly Street Fourth of July Celebration told press representatives yesterday that plans are virtually complete for the annua: affair. Mr. Richardson said that Judge Eugene S. Blea^e, chairman of the celebration, will preside. The program will get underway about 10:30 Saturday morning with a speech by Sen. Olin D.
