New Technique
For Rain Making
Now Perfected
Los Angeles, Dec. 21 Uli The 1
American Institute of Aerologlcul
research Friday disclosed a new
ruln-muklng technlipie which it 1
claimed Is cheaper and more of-fit-live
than methods now em
ployed. Institute head Dr. Irvln P.
Krlck suld the technique, used in
lurge scule tesls In Arizona for'
lhf ntiuf lurn vimm rvmlfl l,t,l t,t
Creulor Splrllus" Come, Holy ruin-making by remote control, j
I "I'm sure this Is possible In
: view of the high level of develop- (
ment In the field of electronics,")
ho said. "Remote radio control
would be simple." j
I The institute said use of the
; new method quadrupled Ihc rain
I f a 1 1 in a region of Flagstaff, 1
i Wlnslow and Holbrook, and .
north of Prcscott.
Dry Ice Obsolete
I The technique uses mobile sil
ver iodide smoke dispensers, plac- j
cd on the ground, and made ob
solete the present use of dry Ice
i dropped by planes Into cloud for- i
minions to produce rain, Krlck
said. ' !
Kor $100,000. it Is possible to
produce the same amount of rain ,
by use of the ground smoke dls-l
penser mills which would cost ;
$1,000,000 using airplanes drop-:
ping dry Ice pellets and silver j
, iodide.
! Krlck said each smoke dispen-i
ser used lo disperse the silver !
Iodide into the atmosphere could
produce rain in an area of-about.
, 240 square miles. j
I Tho sliver iodide Itself costs;
' about $20 a pound and the dls-1
, pcrsnl unit uses about $2 worth ,
of powder an hour.
I Krlck envisions the time when
by pushing a button in a weather
bureau office, it will be possible
, to make rain miles away.
He said the entire rain-making
unit could be moved In two large
wheelbarrows.
There were an estimated 800,-
000 persons Inside and outside
tho four great basilicas and at
least an equal number of faithful,
who had started gathering long
before dawn, blocked all streets
leading to tho squares.
The erect figure of the 73-year-old
pontiff stood before the holy
door at 10:38 a.m. A minute later
he raised Ihe four pound hammer
of gold, silver and Ivory and
struck the first blow against the
cross embedded in the doors
face.
The pontiff knocked a second
time and a third time, then step
ped back as the great door swung
easily Inward. At the same mo
ment, in the other three basilicas,
cardinal delegates of me pope
were knocking on the holy doors
and they too swung open.
