Many an American who is sore at japan
for the way it has been picking on China
may exclam Boy. let's swing the Japan
Current and put icehergs down in Nippon.
II would serve them right"
But the truth of the matter Is that the
Japan Current has no more effect on the
climate Of japan than does the Gulf Stream
on the climate of the Atlantic seaboard of
the United States And for the same reason.
Because Japan, like the United States. is

BY ROBERT ID. POTTER.
Science Editor. The American Weekly.

FOR the money il would cost to the
current World War for about year,
mankind could double the habitable area
of the world. profoundly change the entire
climate of North America and create an ice
free Northwest Passage through the Arctic
Ocean across the top of the Continent from
the Atlantic to the Orient.
Science knows how to achieve this ire
mendous feat of world face-lifting The plan

ious minds ever owned by an American sci
entst-is the ultimate in simplicity merely

Hosts of fossil plants and animals never
found nowadays in the Arctic region have
been discovered by scientists. The only
PLANTATION Of their presence in distant times
is that the Arctic climate much
warmer.
1t is entirely possible that DR. Steinmetz's
scheme TO blast the Berng Strait would
merely restore to the Arctic conditions which
occurred long, long ago in the prehistoric
past. II is logical TO think that at one time
the Japan Current did sweep northward and
flow into what we now call the Arctic Ocean
There its warming waters melted the zee
and gave the nearby land regions warm
fertile climate
II is easy 10 see how the Japan Current
governs the climate Of the West Coast but less
easy TO see its effects on New England
With Boring Strait blasted away the ice
pack IN the Arctic would become smaller and
perhaps even disappear Sweeping eastward
in the Arctic Ocean the warm waters might
create the tong sought Northwest Passage
across the top Of North America the ice-free
trade route to the Orient which early ex-
plorers sought but never found.
Greenland would become warmer. Its
glaciers would melt and hence there would
be birthplace for the icebergs Of the At
lantic
Moreover with the Arctic icepack shrunk
% small dimensions the whole Winter eli
mate of the United States would become
more mild
With warm instead of a cold. place to
breed. snow storms would often be rain and
even if they were icy blizzards they would be
much less severe than they are now.
Present-day engineers agree with the
Stenmetz plan, yet, hazard a guess that the
Blasting of Boring Strait may never be un-
: dertaken because of the tremendous expense
II would cost billions. The Strait is only $50
feet deep and but 35 miles wide To change
direction OF the warm current would require
widening the Strait at least ten times, they
declare
This would cause America to sacrifice
the northwestern tip~of Alaska However
this tip is only sparsey inhabited The people
would undoubtedly give whole-hearted approval
because IT would mean much TO the rest of
the territory. It would make 1t land with
climate perhaps comparable to California, Ore
gon and Washington, and most desirable
place to live in.
The city of Nome would be the only place
of any Importance which would have to be
biloxi off the map by the Stenmetz plan. But
with only a few thousand inhabitants Nome
could easily be relocated and rebuilt better
than ever on the new coast line.
Since the whole Seward Peninsula on
which Nome-is located would be removed by
the Steinmetz project, lot of valuable min

Gold and other precious ores undoubtedly are

ing up its struggle to get into the Arctic
waters would find an easy entrance
1t might even happen that whole new
Arctic Continent. or at least great island

for it is known that the small current which
is now able 10 go rorth through Befing

One branch swings west and goes along the
Arctic coast of Siberia. The other goes al

otherwise it would have been discovered be-
