With the Norfolk and Washington

to anchor down the Potomac River
again rather than risk navigating

docking at IL o'clock this morning,
five hours late, officials of the COM
pany report the mist that is settling

tons of the District the worst they
have experienced in years.
Although the condition is not as
acute within the city, early travellers
In the outskirts report a veritable
curtain Of mist, delaying motorists,
forcing street cars to creep along and
train arrivals at the Union Station
to run well behind schedule.
According to Weather Bureau off,
Gals, the condition is brought on,
primarily, by radical temperature
changes. It's immediate cause, they
say, is due to the relatively warm,
humid air from the ocean blowing
across the comparatively cold inland,
causing stirring in the air and the
falling of it's temperature below
what is known as the dew point. 4"
Condensation of the moisture in the
