Help for the Weather Man


Belief that the federal weather bu-
tsau Is On the threshold Of some real
odyapces Is expressed by its chief,
W. r. Gregg, IN his report for the
Du.rent year just made public.
Through Q system OF air mass
analysis, he hopes. it will be possible
b make more accurate forecasts for
abort periods. Intensive study Of
available data may yet throw more
light on the possibilities Of long
range forecasting. One Of the imme-
6iate objectives Is to provide more
accurate reports for the benefit Of
otvil aviation concerns.
In order to obtain needed informa-
Hon, since conditions In the upper

War Profits and the Bonus

DUNE RABIES AND FURIOUS RA-

VONA0 DsSAO4GSO AEvO GO1SAVV0 ~A0

VeterinarieS recognize two forms
OF rabies, dumb and furious. In the
controversy over the question Of the
occurrence Of rabies In man some OF
US are dumb and some Of us are fu-
riouS.
I'm pretty dumb about It myself, !
gather from the comments Of my
more enlightened colleagues.
Today comes q letter, suspect from
q lacotious student, bearing type.
written heading Rockefeller lnsti-

The body Of the letter reads 50 much
like q book that ! fancy the young
man Of unidentified status who wrote
It was just practicing typewriting on
me. It runs, In part:
"That the Pasteur treatment
really does confer immunity to

back by Pasteur and has been
proved again and again by others.
You object to being in
jected with groundup rabbit
spinal cord, but don't see where
that's any worse than being vac
ciuated against smallpox with
groundup pustules from calves"
The first part Of that argument Is
q familiar one. The health commits

used It with devastating effect in Z
scolding he administered 70 me IN
the columns Of his local newspaper.

Is too much to ask physicians to use
their own heeds-to batter down stone
walls. Look at my poor old bean
and after all, what does It get met
The second part Of the bright youul
Institute employees argument Is bet
