O. 8. Thornthwalte, head of cli matic reaearch actlvltl of the toll conservation service of the depart ment of agriculture, said the atudlea hare developed facta which open an entirely new approach to the prob 1 lem of upstream reduction and con '"trol of flood watera.

"It therefore ha been impossible . to gauge possible flood peaks with V"any degree of accuracy."

Varia tions take the form of channel of force which parallel the wind direction.
