WEATHER AND POLITICS Weather has played an important role in politics ever since Iceland gave parliaments to the world ten centuries ago. As farming developed it began to be a big factor in the politics of the United States. Political seers are now scanning the skies and thinking back to 1890, the year of the great drouth that contributed to many a Republican defeat and Democratic victory t the congressional contest in the middle part of Harrison's ad ministration. For several years preceding 1890 unusually heavy rain fall iad led farmers to Increase their cultivated acreage. They had planted areas normally semi-arid, and when the drouth of 1890 came, the loss of crops was heavy over large portions of the country. Going among the farmers the Democratic leaders managed to convince them that the Re publican administration was responsible ,ifor all the woe. The next house was Democratic by 143 and the next senate Was Republican by only eight. It Was out of the 1890 drought 'that the free silver issue and William Jennings Bryan came. Farm conditions now are very much the same as existed in 1890, and at the same time the sun is damaging crops in so many parts of th)e country, the political 'leaders are speculating as to the probable effect it will have on the con gressional elections next November AIR LINES SOUTH Pan-American air commerce seems to bo the fulfillment of i lemiysoiis poetic vision of the futuro which "saw the heavens tilled with commerce, argosies magic sails." It was jn February, 1929, that Colonel Lindbergh carried thq first air mail dispatch from Miami, Fla., to Cristobal, Canal Zone. Starting on February A he flew by way of Havana, British Honduras, Honduras and arrived on Feb ruary 6. Today trunk air lines extend southward from the Canal Zone to Colombia, Ecuador, thence to Chile and on rcross the Andes to Buenos Aires. The capital of Argentine is connected by air with Brazil's capital, Rio de Janeiro, to which hues were extended on July 1 down the east or Atlan tic Coast of South Aruoi'ioa. None can fully appreciate the immensity and importance or this vast airway except by traveling it by the air Over it one can fly from New York to Buenos Aires, 10,000 miles or nearly half the distance around the world, in a compara tively short space of time.
