Archives New Book Contains
13O Years of Weather Data

The background Information for
the compilation Of weather proba-
bilities during the war has proved
invaluable to civilians as well as
military leaders. The Germans
with their North American sources
cut of, have been sending planes
to Iceland and Greenland for
weather observations.
The Genealogical records gath
cred at the Archives came from
number of Federal agencies and date
from 1914 when the Army's Surgeon
Generals Office began accumulating
information. That was followed by
a system organized in 1847 by the
Smithsonian Institution. The Army
Signal Corps in 1870 took up the
work, and two decades later the
service was transferred to the
Weather Bureau.
