EXTRA HIGH TIDE SWEEPS

Damage Estimate at Thousands Of
Dollars as Water Goes

BOSTON. December 1.-The highest
tide OF the season yesterday swept over
breakwaters and piers along the New
England Coast, causing damage estimated
at thousands of dollars. Scores of per-
sons employed In Boston water front
ofices were marooned during the peak
period Of the tide, and in Winthrop

technical terms that the uninitiated do
not founder.
This melting of the Northland's ice
is not a matter over which the average
American has been wont to spend sleep
less nights AS DR.. Humphreys sets forth
the dire effect on our remote descend
ants, however, one is likely to forget the
Importance of his own threescore years
and ten in concern for the welfare OF
the generations to come.
During the last glacial period, as most

eral thousand feet, intruded far into the
zones we now call temperate. One of
the three. great ice sheets in North
America had its radiant point in North
ern Quebec. From this center it spread
in every direction, its southerly flow COW
ering most of Eastern Canada and
reaching as far down in the United
States as New York City and Cincin-
natl Parts of Western North America
were also scenes of great glacial activity,
and an ice sheet covered the whole of
Northern Europe.
That was about twenty-five or thirty
thousand years ago. Since then the ice
has been on retreat, until now the ex-
tensive continental glaciers are confined
largely to Greenland and Antarctica. If
they continue receding as they are now,
according to DIR. Humphreys, none will
be left in several thousand years.

mains will raise the level of the ocean

many of our large cities gradually will
be submerged.
IT is interesting to speculate upon the
reaction Of the inhabitants to this
calamity. Will laws be passed? Will
there be discussions as to whether the
poor we have always with us shall be
moved from the water soaked areas at
Government expense or through private
charity? Will Senators and Represent
atives make speeches on the subject? Will
they be allowed, in that far-off day, to
make speeches?
But perhaps there will be no Senators
and Representatives. No bonus army or
policemen or Federal troops or elections.
Probably there will be no United States
of America. One remembers past civili-
cations, and is sad.
If private ownership of land should
still prevail, it would seem likely that
the established residents of the inland
States would have an excellent oppor-
tunity for prohteering, as refugees from
the flooded areas sought dry ground.
This will not be the case, however, since
no part of the United States will have
inducements to offer.
"The most serious consequence Of the
melted ice," says DR.. Humphreys, "will
not be the raising of the ocean level.
The flooding of our lowland cities will
be Insignificant in comparison with the
more distressing circumstance that will
accompany it. Without Greenland's ice,
there will be an absence of storms, and
the most fruitful sections of the United
Evening star., 1932-10-09

states will become deSert-like. This Is
not a vague Supposition. 1t is situa-
ton that is really likely to exist. Even
now storms are failing to reach as far
South as they should.
"If the ice disappears completely, all
middle latitudes will become uninhabit-
able. The Far North on the other hand,
because of the modified climate ard alb
sence of ice, will be improved. There
will be sufficient rain in the way of
drizzle in this region to provide moisture,
and the Summers will be warm enough
for plentiful vegetation, though the
Winters will still be uncomfortably Sc
we're. The tropics also, may be bettered
by the change, through lessening OF
the now too heavy rainfall"
THUS the picture of petty adjustments
within the land that is ours, gives
way to the gigantic spectacle of ma
tional exodus. But where will our peo-
pie 60? Will the United States-if there
should be a United States-own suffi-
cient land in an inhabitable part of the
earth to provide a new home? All the
foremost nations Of the world will be
seeking non-arid territory, and, if the
populations are anything like the same
as now, it is plain that there will be too
few inhabitable localities to 60 around.
The tropics and the harsh North may
not be ideal havens of refuge, but they
will, nevertheless, be desirable in the
eyes of our unfortunate descendants,
who will presumably still have need of
food and drink, and can find neither
in the desert wastes the temperate zones
will become.
Unless peace pact exists, there may
conceivably be diSsenSions.
No one can visualize, with any GER
tainty, the type of human beings who
will be living upon the earth three or
four Thousand years or more from now.
without doubt, they will have the ad-
vantage of inventions of which our FORE
most inventors have never dreamed.
Physiologically, they may have freed
themselves of tonsilS and appendix,
without benefit of surgeon, and they may
have developed a new sense-such as

.I.T will make no difference ABOUT
al the climate several thousand
years from now," he said, "for by
that time Washington will be un.
der water"
Washington under water? Covered
up? Submerged? No, it wasn't possible.
Not the Capitol and the White House and
those important buildings where Gov
ernment work is done. Not the Speed
way and the new Mount Vernon road.
Surely not the cherry trees and the elm
lined avenues and the hushed green
loveliness of Rock Creek Park.
But DR.. William j. Humphreys was
not joking. "If Greenland's ice keeps
melting at the rate it is going now," he
explained, "there can be no other way"
And there came upon his face the rapt
expression poets are supposed to wear,
but will not possess as theirs alone so
long as there are scientists to escape
from the ittleness of human wants and
woes into the enormity of phenomena
in which they are interested.
COR many years DR.. Humphreys has
been principal meteorologist in
charge of meteorological physics in the
United States Weather Bureau. Aside
from his official duties, he has found
time to write books and numerous ar
ticles on the wonders of the air, to
speak frequently before scientific So
cieties, and to hold the chair of
meteorological physics in the Graduate
School of George Washington Univer-
sity, where he admits to his classes only
those profound students who have pre-
viously mastered the greater part of the
mathematics and physics courses listed
in the schools catalogue.
His scientific accomplishments in
clude the development of the underlying
theory of the effect of volcanic dust on
temperature of the earth, an explana-
ton of why all air seven miles up and
higher has the same temperature, an
analysis of the mechanical makeup of
thunderstorms, and an investigation of
the why and wherefore of the tornado
It is an imposing and somewhat fright
ening array of attainments, all told, but
when necessary DR.. Humphreys can
speak of the abstruse subjects with
which he deals in language so free OF
