Whatever Europe may American policies, the charge cannot be brought against the United States that important governmental deci- sions are made on long-distance judg- ment or without first-hand informa matien of conditions there, in view of the trips abroad by high officials in the last 12 months, among whom may be mentioned Treasury Department—-Secretary Mellor.

The foregoing list is not a complete roster of department, division, bureau or other officials who have visited Eu- rope In the last vear. but is sufficient to indicdte the “seeing for one’s self’ policy prevailing within the Govern- ment to establish direct contact with foreign situations.

Ynough instances, however, have been cited to prove that the United States 18 in the van of nations seeking to be well informed on what other peo ples are doing and thinking and to appropriate from them Any progress made. Thus at every point of contact with FEurope—finance, commerce, diplo- macy, immigration and agriculture— the United States is perhaps better informed today than it has ever been to pass on vital questions of foreign policy or to give to the American peo- ple the best ideas that Europe has for solving domestic problems. Nor 1s this limited to Europe, since close contacts are similarly maintained with Latin America and the Near East and Far East, though not on so elaborats a scale, so far as visits by resident officials to those areas are ooncerned. Members of Congress Included. Of late years, too, the legislative branch of Government has been estab- jishing direct contacts with Europe through visits of Senators and Repre- sentatives, A number of whom have been abroad this vear, and so will be able to reduce the changes of mistaken action due to inadequate Information It might be added that no such first- hand knowledge of the United States and conditlons here is possessed by European officials, whose visits are comparatively rare. Nevertheless an increage in European travel to this country (as distinguished from immi- e M WG o Good Was Prec:lictet:ll Willing to Let Bureau's Report Stand Before Critics. 1826 has had a Summer. This poor little ragged urchin of a year has been hooted at and Insulted. It has been kicked, cuffed and man handled. Its ancestry and its personal habits have been questioned. “I have, too, had a Summer,” said voung Mr. 1926, a few days ago, picking up a chunk of niud in his chubby fists to hurl at Herbert Janv- rin Browne, 1122 Thirteenth street northwest, a long-range weather fore- caster. “It's been one of the prettiest Sum mers that ever was, too, in spite of what that fellow and a lot like him say,” continued 1926 heatedly. “If you don't belleve it, go up to th, Weather Bureau on M atreet and ask Dr. Marvin, the director: ask Dr. Humphreys, ask Dr. Kimball, ask any of them. ‘They're all friends of mine. 1926, mused Dr. Marvin a few minutes later, “is a good enough kid, but he's got to fight his own battles. We aren’t pitching into any squabbles for him. We-have kept pretty close track of his record, however. You can see for yourself. Of course, he's had some tantrums, blt all little vears get “nto mischief notv and then. Years are more or less alike. There isn't much difference between them." Interviewer Gets Damp. As the interviewer left the shelter of the Weather Bureau the urchin, hiding behind a cloud, shot a squirt- un full of rainwater square into his ace. It was aggravating, after being pre- pared to carry back such a good re- port of him to the office. But kids will be kids and this brat hasn't had any bringing-up. He isn't a bad little fellow at heart. Mr. Browne and the others started abusing him before he was born. They sald he would eat everybody out of house and home and that he would end up on the gallows. Mr. Browne insists that thus far his predictions of a “Summerless vear” have been justified in spite of the kid's personal denial. He writes o0 The Star as follows: “There has been so much comment during and_following the heated spell of July and early August on the fail- ure of an alleged forecast that 1926 would be Summerless, that I would like to furnish you the facts. ““No one has made any forecast that either this year or next year would be ‘Summerless’ For three years past I have made forecasts that the crop season of 1926-1927 in the South- ern Hemisphere and the crop season | of 1927 in the Nort Hemisphere would witness a return of the condi- tions of 1816, the historically famous ‘Year without a Summer.’ That title was given to the vear by English papers in 1816 and adopted in America. It has been used by me be- cause {t was the title of the as I would refer to George Washin, ton as ‘The Father of His Count without charging promiscuity. Explains Prediction. “I inclose evidence in confirmation. I do not predict that next vear will be Summerless, any more than I ever predicted that this year would be Summerless. 1 have forecasted re- peatedly that crop conditions in the two hemispheres, as above outlined will be so seriously affected by abnormal weather as to endanger the food sup- ply of the world. That means violent swinge from heat to cold, from drought to floods. It means the wrong weather dt the wrong time. And yet the sovalled ‘averages’ of temperature and rainfall could be normal. “To illustrate: Over the whole! northeastern section of the United States and Canada south to the Ohio and Potomac Rivers there was a snow- storm June 18, 19, 1816, followed later by freezing temperatures and ice the night of July 4 and during the first week of August. Yet there were in- tervals of warmth. What would be the effect on all crops—corn, wheat, barley, oats, potatoes and vegetables generally—to have a repetition of that weather on approximately the same dates in 19277 Would it not be dis- astrous? Would it not require the war powers of the Government fully ex- erted to avert famine? Remember, the same type of weather occurred quite generally all ever Kurope and into Asia In 1816, extending to North Africa and the West Indies. The rec- ords are insufficient to indicate how far it extended into the unsettled west of North America. “The markets are just discovering what T had forecast many months ago, that the world is even now facing a grain shortage approximating a billion bushels. This includes wheat, rye, corn, barley and oats. In the United States east of the Mississippl tens of milllons of bushels of Winter wheat unthrashed on the 20th of Au- gust were sprouting in the shocks from incessant and heavy rains.” 1926 Record Is Shown. But here is 1026's actual record for the past three months, as checked up by Dr. Marvin's researchers, who of- fer it without comment or explana- tion.\ Their rule is to let vears speak for themselves. It develo] their self- reliance. The reader must judge for himself whether or not little 1926 is fibbing when he asserts he has had a Sum- mer. The temperature records are based on an average for the past 60 years. The week ended June 1 was con- siderably above normal in temperature over more than two-thirds of the Uaited States, particularly in the big crop regions of the South and Middle West. It was from 3 to 6 degrees be- Jow normal, however, in the land and Middle Atlantic cluding the District of Columbia; Arfzona and New Mexico and in parts of Idaho and Washington. The week ending June 8 was from 3 to 6 degrees below normal in the entire count East of Kansas and | Nebraska. West of this point, it was from 3 to 15 degrees above normal. The week ending June 16 was ap- proximately 3 degrees above nor- mal for the entire country, excepting a narrow fringe around the Great Lakes, where it was from 3 to 6 degrees cclder than is usual. Cold Weather Recorded. ‘The week ending June 22 was un- doubtedly cold, frum 8 to 9 degrees below normal everywhere, except in the extreme South. The week ending June 29 was from 3 to 6 degrees below normal for the entire country east of Central Colorado. West of Denver it way about 12 degrees above normal. The week ending July 6 was from 3 to 6 degrees above normal for the entire country, with the exception of a fringe around the Great Lakes. The week ending July 13 was 3 degrees above normal in the Middle Atlantic S8tates, and from 3 to 6 de- grees below normal in most of the Middle West. The week ending July 20 was from 3 to 6 degrees below normal in the East, and from 3 to 9 degrees above normal in the West, The week ending July 27 was 3 degrees above normal east of the Mississippi, and 3 degrees below nor- mal in the Middle West. The week ending August 3 was very patchy, ranging from 3 degrees below to 3 degrees above all over the country The week ending August 10 was about 3 degrees above normal all over the United States, except in Minnesota, Montana and the Dakotas, where it was about 3 degrees below normal. Variatifh Is Recorded. The week ending August 17 was 3 degrees above normal as far as the foothills of the Rockies, about 6 degrees below normal in the moun- tains, and slightly above normal in the Pacific Coast States. The week ending August 24 was about 3 degrees above normal ex- cept along the Canadian border. the New England States and the Middie Atlantic States as far south as Rich- mond. The week ending August 31 was from 3 to 9 degrees above normal in the entire country, except ‘Mexas, where it was from § to 6 degrees be- low normal. Week for week, the immediate neigh- borhood of the District of Columbia has varied very slightly from the 50- year temperature normal. The weath er maps. show that the Capital has had seven weeks slightly above the 50- vear average. Likewise it has had seven weeks when the temperature averaged slightly below the normal. But in both cases the variation has seldom been more than 3 per cent. Rainfall Record. s for rainfall the record is as fol- Week ending June 1— Normal. Week ending June §-—-Normal.

On the eve of the annual meeting and election of the National Aero- nautic Association, friends of Col. Willlam Mitchell, a candidate for the office of president for the ensuing vear, confidently announce an over- whelming victory for their choice, while the opponents admit that “this is a battle with nothing for us to fight with.” The opponents of the “come-back’ move of the former brigadier general in the Army Air Corps to a position of plans have not conceded defeat, but are placing all their hopes on the be- lfef that the assoctation’s delegates from all over the country who will meet Tuesday in Philadelphia have not been won over by the Mitchell forces as they claim.
