members never crossed a State
line either during or after car
rying out their lynching.

sissippi-Louisiana boundary in
that area and the body was
found on the Mississippi side
opposite Bogalusa.

citation for the cooperation
given the FBI agents by Gov.
Coleman, the Mississippi High

lated to the temperature. An
attempt is being made to ac-
complish this by relating the
basic moisture unit of wet bulb
temperature-or dew point-to
arrive at the discomfort index. "
Weather Bureau climatol-
ogists have decided that one
way Of developing a discomfort
index is to take four-tenths Of
the sum Of dry and wet bulb
thermometer readings and add
is.
They explained that dry
bulb instruments are ordinary
household Thermometers and
wet bulb instruments permit
measurement Of the moisture
in the air.
1T is estimated that 10 per
D
cent of the population will be
uncomfortable even before the
index reaches TO-" Mr.. Schmidt
said. "One half will be uncom-
Portable when it reaches rs

Portable with an index Of 70,
many feeling acutely miserable.
AS the index increases above
80 the degree of discomfort
mounts rapidly"
Combines Heat, Humidity
Mr.. Schmidt said the new
index is a method of combining
the heat and humidity into a
single factor, whereas before it
always has been necessary to
evaluate the two separately.
For example, Government
agencies without air condi-
tioning have a heat-humidity
formula for dismissing en-
ployes on hot days. Under the
