ICE ON THE WINGS! Aviators are learning to stay a respectful distance away from towering clouds over mountain tops Such clouds are dangerous. Many such clouds are made of super-cooled water drops, or water chilled below 32 degrees, the freezing point. When an airplane flies into a super-chilled cloud each drop that touches the ship instantly freezes to ice. Modern

cals which keep the ice from forming on the propellers, but ice is always a serious hazard for airships and it can easily throw them out of control. The air in clouds is turbulent, and 'his turbulence is increased over mountain tops. When a w’jnd strikes a mountain it is deflected upward. As it rises it makes a very dangerous ice cloud

DAILY FORECAST NOV DLC 1938 ®" 28 2.9 30 1 X 3 4 5 ro| b‘n t a to a planes have de-icers and chemiWhen an aviator finds that he must fly over a mountain top he goes as high as he can. Experience shows that ths ice mist often extends down on the sides of the mountain, and a plane flying low may be so loaded with ice when it gets to the mountain top that it no longer has lift enough to get over. Then too the down drafts on the other side of the mountain ja*- often fierce. An aviator who recently came into our office reported such a down draft wind over the mountains of California that he fell 4,000 feet with the plane pulling against the falling wind with all the power it had. He said that such falling winds are deadly to airships, because they smash squarely into the ground and never give a plane a chance to level off. The mountains of the west are high and aviators have their most spectacular encounters with clouds and ice there. But aviator who visited us said that the Appalachian Mountains, while much lower than the western peaks, are probably more dangerous. For one thing, he said, the air over them is much wetter and the Ice Will form more qtiickly.

Then, too, in parts of the Appalachian region landing fields are difficult to approach in thick weather. Airway beacons, radio beams and weather reports from ground stations have taken much of the danger out of air travel, but experienced fliers are still fearful of ice clouds, and the more experienced they are the more cautious they become. WEATHER QUESTIONS Q. What about snow for New Jersey and the Atlantic seaboard Will there be lots of snow? How will the cold waves, if any, come? Mrs. B S. A. The Gulf Stream of the Air will flow near the Atlantic Coast most of the winter, so rains and snows can be expected. The majority of the cold air masses will come down via Lake Ontario over West Virginia, Virginia. and North Carolina. Q. What comets are expected in the near future? In what part of the sky will they appear? What place is best for seeing them?— J. N. A. Bright comets move in parabolic orbits and usually visit the region of the earth but once. No one knows just when to expect them. They are usually seen near the sun. Texas is the best place to see them from, because its clear air reaches farther south. Comets often frighten people, but there is no danger. Q. Why are the western rivers, sue!, as the North Plate and the Arkansas, so choked with sand? Is It from ploughing the land? G. W. A. Much of the soil of the western plains is of wind-blown origin, very light and powdery. Great quantities of it wash into the streams. When land is unwisely ploughed, the natural ero-

time and a half for overtime and vacation with pay Strikers agreed to ease the paralysis n bit by allowing commission men to clear the yards of cattle, sheep and hogs already in the pens and en route.
