A FRENCH inventor has found out a
way to beat the impetuous and deadly
tornado. He would simply erect tall
towers and attach to the highest points
thereof great charges of some powerful
explosive. The bombs must be con-
nected by wire with an observation sta
ton, and when the tornado approaches
the observer simply touches button,
an electric current touches off the
bomb and the conclusion breaks the
tornado all up. Whether an explosion
violent enough to smash tornado
would not be more disastrous than
the tornado itself the inventor fails to
state.
