PROPS HARRINGTON AND Able
For twenty two years Prof Cleveland
Able has been the auiocrat Of the ma
tiomal weather bureau. His ability is
not questioned, but having ability does
not prove the correctness Of ones theories.
Discussions through the public press as 10
whether heat or electricity Is the original
moving force of weather changes Is max
ing rapid inroads on the rigid orthodoxy
Of Prof Abbe's theories.
