RECORD AIR CONDITIONS
FOR BENEFIT OF AVlATORS
System May lie Installed In Connec-
tlon With Local Iiranch OF
Weather bureau.

Instructions to inauEurate n
weather service which would record
the conditions of the air prevailing in
the upper atmosphere for aviaters,
and which system now is being in
stalled in Baltimore, Philadelphia
and Washington, have not been re-
ceived here as yet. Edward y. Evans.
in charge of the local branch of the
United States Weather Bureau stated
yesterday. however. That Richmond is
the logical place for location of such
a station and declared it rs his belief
that If an Information post for avia-
tors is established in Virginia, Rich
mond Will be chosen.
Mr.. Evans said that the idea of
having bureau to gather data on
conditions in the air originated in
the Far West and that the first OF
these posts was established at Los
Angeles, California. The bureaus
gather data on the velocity of the
wind in the upper regions and speci-
aiizc on forecasts of wind and
weather conditions aloft. The notho-
scope is the name of the delicate in
s,rumcnt which makes possible the
prediction OF weather conditions in
the heavens.
