palachians, 1t generally Is detected
northeastward west Of the mountain
range so that this part Of the country
misses 1t altogether The Arctic high,
1t might be said. Is tired and out Of
breath from Its long journey. The Ber-
muda high Is strong and rested-tOo
dangerous . foe to take chances With.
Product Il Tive Factors.
Now the Bermuda high gets broken
up badly from time to time SO that 1t
offers no effective resistance. This
month. 1t 50 happens 1t has remained
consistently strong and well tntegrated.
SO the strange Spring -in-Winter WASH
tngton has been experiencing is the
product Of two factors-very little cold
air Is coming down and what little there
is can't get through.
If there VI an enormous accumu-
lation of cold air in the Mackenzie it
probably would break through In few
days despite the Bermuda high. II the
Bermuda high were anemic, smaller
gusts Of cold would be effective. For
that matter the two conditions strongly
affect each other.
Just why cold Is not accumulating
this Winter In the Mackenzie Valley Is
unknown. Presumably just as much Is
being manufactured in the North Pole
factory as any other year. Nobody
knows of any change in fundamental
conditions there-any cOSmic depreS-
sion effecting the long-established bus
mess Of BOreas g. Co. The assumption
Is that most of the production Is being
shipped out over another route to sup
ply other customers-Northern Europe
and Asia. Neither does anybody know
why the Bermuda high should persist
as 1t has. These are facts OF nature
with which the weather forecaster must
circulate without explaining.
Now Is this false Spring an annually
recurring condition In the Middle At
lantic States. analogous to the So
called January thaw Of New England
or the St. Martins Summer in late Au-
tumn. which is especially notable in
the Northern States? Certainly for the
past four or five years Washington has
had an abnormally warm period some
time during the Winter and this has
led to a good many queries Is to

wall Of Arlington National Cemetery. is

Though the highway construction has
been finished. After cleaning up the
project and with the last poured con-
crete firmly set, the highway will be
thrown open to traffic. The south side
of the avenue has been used by the
public for some time.
Much work remains to be done on the
plaza in front of the memorial entrance,
which marks the westerly terminus Of
the Arlington Memorial Bridge project,
at the east wall of the cemetery This
means the public will not be able to
drive onto the newly constructed road
within the cemetery for about two
months more. Concrete is being poured
in the plaza and curbs are being set,

cycle that Is built into the hillside
Work on the hemicycle will take some

AL that can b said h that some time
In any Winter there Is likely to be the
ideal combination Of comparatively
warm weather In the Mackenzie Valley
and . strong Bermuda high. But It
might come at any time during the
Winter, 1t might recur two or three
times. or It might not come at all.
There Is no evidence that It recurs

Besides, 1t was explained. while the
Mackenzie and Bermuda highs appear
to be the basic factors in the weather
mechanism. any generalization Of the
phenomenon Is unduly simplifled, since
innumerable other factors may enter
to complicate the picture. There must,
for example, be . series Of lows run
ming before the Mackenzie high across
the United States. Generally speaking,
these lows will put in An appearance

I've Other Stations.
Besides, there are two other Cana
dian observing stations where condi-
tions have a profound indirect, and
sometimes a direct, effect on Washing
ton. These are at Chesterfield Inlet and
Churchill, on Hudson Bay. Through
this outlet of the Arctic comes the New
England cold. If conditions are pro-
pitiouS, which they seldom are. the cold
may flow down as far as Washington.
or. II temperatures are low in the Hud-
SCH Bay region, there Is . strong proba-
bility that the Arctic Basin cold air is
Overdowing wherever 1t can find an out

get its share.
Sometimes, 1t Is believed. q cold pres

Valley itself without an Arctic over

great reservoir. Actually there are
colder places ON earth than the North
Pole. where the influence of the ocean
tends to moderate the temperature.

JURY LOCKED
In TRIAL OF
PAT CHAMBERS
New Trial for Leader of
Cotton Pickers' Strike
In California

TULARE, Calif.-A deadlocked
jury resulted here in the trial of
Pat Chambers, cotton-strike lead
er, on charges of criminal syndical-
ism. A new trial for Chambers
has been set for February 6. He
is out on $4,000 bail supplied
through the international Labor
Defense, which is conducting his
defense.
His trial was marked by the
militant attitude Of four to five
hundred workers who daily packed
the courtroom.
The charges against Chambers
under the criminal syndicalism law
are more far-reaching than any
ever attempted before in Califor-
MIA. The state set out to prove
that the cotton strikers sought a
wage raise, to get their union rec
ognized, and to obtain the right Of
collective bargaining. Pat Cham
bers is charged with criminal syn.
dicalism for being the leader of g
strike called on the basis of these
demands. He is also charged with
advocating violation of the law be-
cause he recommended resistanc
by strikers to illegal arrests.
The aim of the state is clearl!
to outlaw all strikes in Californi
under the Criminal Syndicalisr
law.
