Humidity, Forecaster Asserts
Bjr Arthur Edsea
WASHINGTON .Aug. 7. -() -It's not the heat, foes the old
bromide, it's the humidity.
Tine, but only partly true, says the U. S. weather bureau.
It. C. Schmidt, chief forecaster for the local office, aaid today
the saying might be revised to read:
It isn't only the heat, it's also the humidity.
Before we get to sweating
permit Schmidt to answer a ques
tion:
"What doe the weather bureau
i meun when it reports the humid
ity i JO per cent?"
It mean. Schmidt explained to
a reporter, that the air has 80
wr cent of the moisture it is
capable of holding at that temper
atui e.
The catch: The hotter the air
is, the more moisture it can hold.
That is why 80 per cent humid
tty at 90 degrees makes you so
much more uncomfortable than
TO per cent humidity at a tower
temperature.
In general, says Schmidt, if the
temperature gets above 90, and
, the humidity is above 50, stake out
a shady claim at the nearest re
freshment stand.
Veiy does the high humidity
bother you? Your prespiration
I doesn't dry, explains Schmidt, and
instead of beijig cooled by the
evaporation, you have a hot, sticky
feeling.

right of a United Nations mem

tion directly from applying na
tions, including Soviet-sponsored
Albania and outer Mongolia, but
declined to press for a vote and
the security council then upheld
the committee.
I consider that the committee
has gone beyond, its authority,"
Andrei A. Gromyko, Russian del
egate, told the council. "It is
not within the committee's rights
to seek such information direct
from the governments."
Russia previously had been vot
ed down within the committee
named by the council in efforts
to block the fact-finding, and the
issue was brought to the council
floor at her insistence.
