WEATHER BUREAU EXPANDS SERVICE New Reporting Service De- signed to Reduce Trans- port Flying Hazards. In a further effort to reduce the Weather hazard to air transport oper- ations, the Weather Bureau tomorrow will open & new six-hourly weather reporting service at 100 new stations located off the main airways. ‘The new stations will provide a denser network of observation points, & better synchronization of weather in- formation and more detailed and fre- quent forecasts for aviators, it was explained. ‘The 100 new stations will be main- tained in addition to the present 100 selected stations along the lines of the airways and 50 off-the-way stations. All 250 stations are equipped with the same kind of instruments, including thermometers, barographs and rain gauges. Extra observers are being as- signed to understaffed stations, where more observations are to be made, it ‘was explained. Complete information as to temper- ature, precipitation, barometric pressure, visibility, ceiling, dewpoint and other factors of importance to fiying will be recorded at 1:30 and 7:30 a.m. and p.m. These observations will be collected at central points and relayed by radio and teletype over the entire alrway weather system of the country and to regular Weather Bureau stations. “This carefully worked out scheme for taking more meteorological ob- servations over most of the country |} at exactly the same hour, with the same kind of instruments and recorded in the same way on the same forms,” the Weather Bureau explained, “will go far toward insuring uniformity in the facts on which forecasts for fiyers are based.” ‘The extra observations from the new or newly equipped stations also will amplify the information on which the forecasters at the six district centers of the Weather Bureau may draw in making daily weather forecasts | for the United States. The times fixed for the collection of information at the new stations |R is a half-hour earlier than the times fixed previously for the recording stations of the Weather Bureau. This 1s intended to give the district forecast centers more leeway in meeting sched- | ules for special weather bulletins. The nearest of the new stations to Washington are at Salisbury, Md., and Urbanna, Va. Among the sta- tions receiving new equipment are those at Lynchburg and Wythe- ville, Va.

Year With Seven Is Caution Signed To Poquoson Man By the Associated Press. NEWPORT NEWS, Va, Jan- uary 13.—Charles N. Fravel, 66, of Poquoson, wonders what the year 1937 holds for him. “I'm a little uncertain about the year because of the numeral “T",” he opined, and probably with just reason, because: He was born July 27, 1870; lost his right arm April 17, 1889; married at the age of 27, De- cember 27, 1897 (his wife was 17).; after seven years their first child was born; a second was born on April 7 the following year; his father died at the age of 70 on April 7; his grandmother died at 87; a sister was born on January 27, 1873.

C, NORRIS WILLEAD CRTIS OF COURT Agrees to Preside at Con- férence on Amendment of Constitution. By the Associated Press, At an age when most men are en- feebled or in retirement, Senator Norris of Nebraska has stepped into the thick of the current fight to broaden Federal powers over industry and agriculture. ‘The 175-year-old independent, whose re-election over a Democratic oppo- nent wis urged by President Roosevelt last Fall, agreed to preside at & con- ference on amendment of the Consti- tution, Author of the recently-adopted “lame duck” amendment and con- gressional father of the New Deal's vast power devel- opment in the ‘Tennessee Valley, Norristold a group which solic- ited his leader- ship: “This Supreme Court is out of touch with the people. It has constituted a con- tinuous constitu- tional convention, ruling on merits of legislation. But those who would deal with the situa- tion first must compromise among themselves. | Initiate Conference Plan. The unofficial group which initiated the conference plan and asked Nor- ris to aid it were Edwin S. Smith of the National Labor Relations Board; Henry T. Hunt, Interior De- partment lawyer; W. Jett Lauck, ad- viser to John L. Lewis of the Com- Senator Norris, and Morris L. Ernst, counsel for the American Civil Liberties Union. Whether President Roosevelt knew of the preparations was a subject of speculation at the Capitol. Smith and Hunt said they acted as individuals, and probably would not be among the official sponsors, since they are mem- bers of the administration, A sponsorship committee of about 50 will be recruited at once. Repre- sentatives of labor, farmers, consumers and business organizations, deans of major law schools and prominent spokesmen from almost every State will be invited. ~ 'WHITE HOUS APPLE GIVES THURSDAY, Abmchuretobeuudinuuln(the. conference construes the last election as a mandate for wage and hour and other labor legislation, the end of farm surpluses, reduction of farm tenancy, encouragement of farmers’ co-opera- tives, consumer protection and sta- bilization of purchasing power. “If the power of the Supreme Court to invalidate such legislation is within the control of Congress,” it says, “then the mandate is that Congress strip the court of such power. “If the power of the court to in- validate acts of Congress is granted by the Constitution and the court now 777> il = N N BUTTER YOU A NEW TASTE THRILL!

In the past, however, he has sug- gested that a unanimous or a seven- to-two vote by the Supreme Court be required to invalidate legislation. ‘The conference is planned for seven or eight weeks from now.

Don't delay. Don’t experiment with half-way measures. The moment you come down with a cold, go straight to bed and use your old dependable Vicks VapoRub—and use it this new improved way. Then you not only enjoy all the benefits that have made VapoRub the standby of two gen- erations; you actually increase its effectiveness. Lengthens and Strengthens VapoRub’s Action—At bedtime, mas- sage the throat, chest and back (between and below the shoulder-blades) {for three full minutes with Vicks VapoRub. Then spread a thick layer over the chest and cover with a warmed cloth, Follow these tested direc- tions carefully. Each step of this “3-Minute VapoRub Massage” helps to lengthen and strengthen VapoRub’s famous two-way action during the night. Relieves a Cold Two Ways at Once—Almost before the VapoRub is ‘well rubbed on, it starts to bring relief two ways at once—2 direct ways: 1. Through the Skin. VapoRub acts direct through the skin like a poultice or plaster. 2. Medicated Vapors. At the same time, its medicated vapors, released by body heat, are breathed in for hours—about 18 times a minute—direct to the irritated air-passages of the nose, throat and chest. This combined poultice-and-vapor action loosens phlegm and makes breathing easier—relieves irritation—eases the cough—helps break con- gestion. Long after you relax into eomfortable sleep, VapoRub keeps right on working—hour after hour. Often, by morning the worst of the cold is over. Avoids Risk of Stomach Upsets—This safe external treatment can- not possibly upset the stomach, as constant internal “dosing” is so apt to do. It can be used freely, as often as needed, even on the youngest child. Note: A.ny “cold” not promptly relieved by this thorough treat- inent with Vicks VapoRub should have the attention of a doctor. 1 1b. pkgs. [~ You’ll Enjoy A&P Quality Beef!
