of Washington, he was grad
uated from Wilson Teachers
College. received a masters de-
gree in mathematics from the
University Of Maryland, and got
directly into weather studies
during World War II at air
navigation school.
He later made forecasts for
the Pacific fleet invasions of
Two Jima and Okinawa. When
the war ended. he headed the
program branch at the Navy
photographic office in Suitland
and began free-lancing as a
weather broadcaster in 1913.
He broke away from Govern
ment work completely five years
later to form his company. It
now leases offices from WAdAL.
Locomotives To Ghana
Operating a private forecast
ing service is not cheap. The
four leased wires for interna-
tional weather data european,
Northern Hemisphere, United
States, and hurricane circuits
cost him $4,000 a year. and
Mr.. Allen admits his bread and
butter still comes from his
broadcasts.
But he finds the business of
keeping ships away from gales
a challenging one. Last July
he was asked to plot a calm
course for a freighter from New
York to Ghana.
When he asked the routine
question, What cargo aboard?"
Mr.. Allen was staggered to
learn the deck would have two
locomotives dashed to it.
So great was the weight that
only a few feet of space sep
arated the deck from the wat
er's surface. The ship made
it in IA days, but not without
some anxious glances at the
hurricane wire.
Other jobs may involve fore
casting halfway around the
globe. New Jersey Standard
was building harbor facilities
at Benghazi, and hired him to
call the shots on Mediterran-
can sea swells. And a farm
seed company once hired him
to give daily rainfall reports
in the Low Countries so it
could estimate seed yield.
Like other professional mete-
biologists, Mr.. Allen has de-
veloped a thick skin against
the daily jokes about forecasts.
But he admits to owning
three umbrellas.

Last Friday Washington
weatherman Louis Allen was
reused from a warm bed at
sam. by this urgent message
from a weStbound passenger
ship in mid-Atlantic:
IS Request rush recommended
ton alternative route to escape
gale winds with minimum loss
time and distance since 1000 z
course $50 speed IT,"
After studying data pouring
INTO his office over Teletype
machines and plotting the
course of two storms, Mr.. Al
len replied in the same un-
punctuated style:
= FStorm centered 53f5Sil200
moving north Jenny dissolving
area Of gale winds near Ber-
muda also moving north rec
ommend resume rhumbline New
York"
A rough translation of all
this was that the skipper had
turned south to escape a
pounding from storms reported
ahead. and Mr.. Allen treasured
him his original course would
miss the gales.

YOUR
MONEYS WORTH
Turning Point in History
BY SYLVIA PORTER

When the economic history
of the United States is written,
1861 may be recorded as one of
the great turning points for the
nation.
Decisions we make now on
trading and cooperating with
the European Common Market
will be vital in determining
whether we move on to new
heights of economic power in
association with other free ma
tons or forfeit our role as
leader of the Western world.
Recently there have been
statements and speeches by pol
icy-makers in both parties urg-
ing that we become aware of
what is happening.
The trouble is. as it usually is,
that the experts talk to each
other. Lofty words are being
spoken about the challenge of
the booming Common Market
across the seas, but how many
hear the words? In this and the
next two columns, therefore,
I'll pose the questions I've asked
myself, and try to answer them.
Events Explained
Questi0n-What is happening
in Europe that is so important
to us?
Answer-The original six ma
tons which joined to form the
Common Market four years ago
have had dazzling success in
increasing production and sales.
Since nothing succeeds like sue
cess, the original six now are be-
ing joined by Britain and other
nations this side of the Iron
Curtain. Within a few years, the
economic political union Of Eu-
rope will include 10 nations,
among them our largest Gus
toners. The European Common
Market will have a population
Of 328 million against 181 mil.

ships. AS early as 1905 the
German photographic Institute
found that routine headwinds
could cut speed by 10 per cent
for a heavily loaded freighter
and more for a lightly laden
one riding high in the water.
Such slowdowns can cost a
shipping line thousands of dol
lars per trip in fuel and other
operating costs. Mr.. Allen helps
shippers find the route of least
wind resistance, meaning the
cheapest.
4 Another major client here is
the Washington Gas Light Co.
which leans on both Mr.. Allen
and Federal weather services
for razor-fine predictions of
temperatures.
A gas company spokesman
explained that in cold weather,
even a slight drop in temper
allure means an enormous surge
in demand for heating. VIGIL
engineers estimate that in VIM
ter, every l degree drop will
require nearly rs million addi-
tional cubic feet of gas per
day to serve Washington Gus
toners.

mentwise and quantitatively by
the buyers who are located in
the New York store, Mr.. Gimbel
reported.
Local managers are respon-
sible for day-to-day operations,
including personnel, service,
maintenance of communica-
tons relating to inventory re-
quirements, expenses, etc.
Sales of the four Gimbel's d.
visions in three months ended
October 81 were around / per
cent above a year ago, he said.
Third quarter profit will be
about $l25 a share, same as a
year ago. but a fourth quarter
upturn should lift 1861 profits
to between $4.75 and IS a share,
he declared.
Department stores have met
the competition from discount
merchandisers head on and in
many cases have learned to sell
with lower expense methods,
Mr.. Gimble continued.
Most department stores do
in fact sell appliances, radios,
televisions and the great ma
jority of branded merchandise
at the same prices as to the
discount houses, he said.
No Discounting Planned
A shrewd enough shopper ac-
tually can buy more of these
products at lower take home"
prices through a department
store than through a discounter,
he declared.
A SIS million debenture offer

pany to retire all outstanding
