Persons in the path of a "twisteef should be warned at once by telephone, says Dr. Bum.. phrey, who adds: “The use or the telephone is now so general that mod of the peogle of the cohmnnity could be warned in time to neck ufety." Dr. W. J. Humphrey, senior me- terologiat of the United States weather Bureau, asserts that mgch loss of life from tornadoes could be prevented by proper use of the 'tele- phone. , ' The practical benefits to be derived by having available these free-air records of temperature and humidity, in addition to the free-air wind move- ments obtained by .using pilot bal- loons, are obvious. Airplanes have dsitinct advantages over kites in this work in that they can be used in calms ‘and very light winds, can be flown near populous centers, and re- quire less time to complete a flight, a most important consideration if the data obtained are to be effectively used in current forecasting. Every knock " . boom'lbdt it the: homo town, knocker- thonxht they were boosting, they might quit 2'i') ins. _ Flights are to be made at about 8 a. m. daily, and are to reach a height of at least 3,000 meters. The data obtained will be available to the fore- caster by 9:30 a. m. and will include the temperature and relative humidity at various elevations, and many sup- plementary notes, such as visibility, cloud heights, thickness. etc. The Marvin metisorograph,,whieh is used for regular kite flying, is being em- ployed for this work. It is mounted in a specially constructed iron frame on the top of the upper wing of the plane, and is therefore Well exposed and unaffected by heat from the mo- tor. SAYS TORNADO LOSS I COULD BE AVERTED Meteorological Expert Advises Use of Telephone. to Warn of Danger A new feature of free-air obserVa- tions, which have long been made by means of kites and pilot balloons by the Weather Bureau of the United States Department of 'Agriculture, is observation by airplane. For the past year this type of observationfas been carried on at the naval air station at San Diego, Calif., and recently it has been started at Anacostia, D. C., un- der a eo-operative arrangement be- tween the Navy department and the Weather Bureau. it? That is your prbblem and mine.
