This action, coming immediately after the dispatch of an invitation to Moscow to participate in the prep- arations for a disarmament confe ence, has created extraordinary inter- est. It means that the western pow- ers of Europe here are determined to make another attempt to restore nor- mal economic relations between Rus- sia and the outside world and are not dismayed by the failure of the Genoa and Hague conferences.

For the purpose of studying the solar constant of radiation, the Smith- sonian Institution has established ob- mervatories on top of the Andes Mountains in_ Chile, and on Table Mountain, California.’ It is from these stations that the institution proposes to broadcast through the agencles named, If they wish the information, the values of radiation.

The air which leaves equa torfal regions on this account raises pressures over continents in Winte and over oveans in Summer. In other words, the more intense the solar radiation, the greater, the fall of pressure within the tropics, the wider the tropical belt of dimin ished pressure and the higher the latitude of increased pressure.
