Pioneering Efforts

1t is no surprise, therefore, that
research in weather control and
modification is leading all over
the world to talk of specific steps
ranging all the way from small
irrigation and sprinkling projects
to artificial suns and even moving
mountains.
The United States ranks high in
pioneering efforts to modify
weather. Some of the earliest at
tempts at cloud seeding to induce
rain in arid areas began in this
country in l947.
A hurricane research program
is now going on in cooperation
with the United States Air Force
In the National Hurricane Project
of West Palm Beach.
In Kansas City at the Local
Severe Storm Warning Center,
meteorologists are focusing at
tention on tornadoes in order to
be able to predict them with more
accuracy.
Some of our meteorologistS are
thinking of large-scale modifica-
tions. AS one authority pointed
out, this country now has the
machinery to move. destroy or
build mountains. BY knocking
down the Rockies, for example,
II such a gigantic thing could be
enviSioned, the weather in all of
North America would be changed.
Without the Rockies as a screen,
the warm moisture bearing winds
from the Pacific would create
precipitation patterns over this
Nation that would make the in
tense rains of this season a mere
drizzle by comparison. This would
be fine for desert areas but would
create disaster and havoc else
where.
Here are some of the weather
control techniques being prac-
ticed or discussed in other coun-
tries:

Might Change Views
A deepening OF the business de-
preston or further disappointment
during the next month in the ex-
pected upturn would be perhaps
the only development that could
enlist the necessary votes. II would
also provide the best reason for
the administration TO endorse
again its 1887 school construction
program as we'll as this years

conditions enough Of those who
have been mildly opposed TO Fed
eral funds for classrooms might
find an excuse to change their view
in order TO pass the legislation.
Unless this situation occurs, 1t Is
extremely doubtful II school con-
struction will have a chance on the
House floor this session. Even
though there has been widespread
public discussion and interest in
greater Federal aid for new schools.
members of Congress who for years
have fought this battle do not mo-
tice a significant rise in popular
demand for legislative action. Some
believe that the educational world
itself is too divided between those
who urge more stress on quantity
more facilities for the rapidly in
creasing school population - and
those who advocate greater en-
phasis on quality in the present
school systems.

has more measurable things to
think about.
One is the national economy.
Figures from the Commerce De-
partment leave no doubt that this
seasons unprecedented weather
has had an adverse effect on that.
Rains and low temperatures,
ranging to freezing and below with
accompanying SHOWS in some
areas, have delayed certain small
grain paintings by as much as
a month, damaged fruit and crops,
interfered with necessary fruit,
tree and plant spraying, increased
plant rust and mold. The weather
also has prevented necessary build
ing and construction, cut down
store sales, and contributed sub
stantially to unemployment.
Weather is related directly to
the economy of every nation. Even
those as large in area and as varied
in topography and climate as the
United States and the U. S. S. r.
are no exceptions. The economy
of nations more limited in size,
such as Japan, Norway, the Meth
erlands and Israel, is almost wholly
dependent upon weather. To these
countries, weather poses the ques-
ton of economic survival.

Kefauver
Urges Halt
In Steel Rise

Senator Kefauver, Democrat
of Tennessee. revealed today
he has urged President Eisen-
hover to try to establish
voluntary price-wage controls
by an appeal to industry and
labor to head of an expected
rise in steel prices on July /.
The Senator said Mr.. Eisen-
hover informed him by letter
that, while the general APP
proach suggested by the Sena-
tor has been given much
thought, the President believed
he could best discharge his re-
sponsibility by continuing on
the course he had set rather
than by adopting the public
conference approach.
Senator Kefauver predicted
that If the price of steel goes
up it will touch of another
round Of imitation affecting
automobiles and other durable
goods. He told the Senate he
has no desire to advocate man.
datory price-wage control leg
islation, but believes a volun-
tary appeal by the President
would be successful.
Il most certainly and sim
cerely hope that whatever the
Presidents program is, it will
be successful in fostering a
wage-price policy in the ma
tional interest" Senator Ke-
fauver said. II am satisfied,
however, that if the President
would use the full powers of
his Office, he could most GER
tainly deter the further raising
Of prices by steel or any other
industry. He could likewise,
in my opinion, deter any labor
union from demanding any in
crease in wages unless it could
be shown that, correspond
ingly, productivity would be

Grand Canyon Tragedy
While the Curtis plan was
under preparation, two planes
collided over Grand Canyon,
killing 1913 persons. This trag-
edy gave dramatic support to
the view that even in the less

to the visual ability of the pl-
lots" President Eisenhower's
