Navy and Weather Bureau work
together on many projects and
share most of the benefits of their
collective effort.
But in money and personnel, the
Weather Bureau is running second
to the military. The Air Force has
some $4,000 officers, noncoms and
civilian personnel in its weather
service and the Navy has another
5000.
The Weather Bureau can num-
ber only about $500 plus a few
parttime workers on the forecast
ing payroll.
Today the Weather Bureau is
correct IS times out of 100 in its
forecasts. But that Is per cent is
too great a margin of error. A
wrong forecast or lack of warning
can mean deaths and suffering.
The recent hurricanes Carol"
and Edna" were painful remind
ers of mans struggle with the
elements ever since the beginning
of history.

Tannehill is optimistic about the

Uninterrupted
Phone Service
AT Stake Now

The Southern Bell Telephone
Company said today the CWA-CIO
refusal to accept clause to
assure uninterrupted telephone
service to the public is virtually
all that is standing in the way of
final agreement on a new con-
tract.
Frank M. Malone, personnel
vice president of the Southern
Bell, said: "The Company's in
SiStance on an uninterrupted SER
vice clause is to require the Union
to follow orderly procedures es-
tablished in the contract for ad-
justment of differences during the
life of the agreement.
1T is common practice for
Union Management agreements to
include provisions assuring no
work stoppages by employees as
long as a contract is in force. In
fact, about SO per cent of labor
management contracts today in
clude some such provision.
Protection of the public in this
manner is particularly important
in the telephone business. Nation
al defense and the public health,
welfare and safety depend vitally
on telephone service. 1t is essent-
ial that the service not be disrupt
ed.
"There has been an average of
one. strike every 10 days in South
ern Bell since the present con-
tract was signed. These service
descriptions have been an intoler-
able imposition on the public.
'The Company has been patient.
The Union repeatedly has promis-
ed to correct the situation but the
walkouts have continued to occur
in increasing numbers. In the
public interest, it is imperative
that they now be stopped"
Mr.. Malone said that a wage
offer, involving increases up to
$3.50 per week, substantially that
which the Union indicated would
be acceptable, had been made
and is now ready to be placed in
effect Immediately upon agree
ment on a workable continuity of
service clause and signing of
new contract. This offer is de-
signed to keep the wages of tele-
phone employees well in line with
wage levels in the communities
where they work and live. 1t was
made after an extensive survey
to determine prevailing wage
levels in the cities and towns
where Southern Bell operates.
The CWA-Company contract ex-
pires September 20. Bargaining,
which has been in progress since
July 10, will continue in an effort
to reach an agreement.

on the job for As years before he
retired.
1t wasn't until radio came along
that forecasts and storm warnings
could be pushed out to the people.
The weather service remained in
the Signal Corps until 1890, when
it was moved into the Agriculture
Department because of the import
ance of the forecasts to the farm
ers. In 1910 Congress put the Bu-
reau into the Commerce Depart
ment, where it now is.
Radar and electronic gadgetS de-
veloped in World War II opened
up a vast new world of weather
stuy and new knowledge on wea-
ther has piled up fast in the past
10 years.
But Tannehill said: ''In a cou-
pie of hundred years they'll laugh
at us and the methods we are now
using will look like 80 cents"
