Rainmaker, Meteorologist Clash Over Ability To Control Weather Corvallis tU.R) A prac ticing rainmaker and head of the UCLA meteorological de partment clashed Tuesday over a "lack of proof" in a report to the American Meteorological so ciety on cloud seeding results in the Pacific Northwest. When it was all over, the col lege meteorologist gave the rainmaker 50 cents to send him some pictures of blue sky as "proof" of, the rainmaker's ab ility to control the weather. Paper.

The subject of Hubbard's paper was "Control of Atmospheric Condensation by Chemical Kucleation Methods." Hubbard, who claims to have three million acres under con tract for cloud seeding and cloud dispersal, reported that he had conducted 301 experiments in Washington, Oregon, California and Nevada. In 97 experiments in which he used silver iodide, there were 88 observable cases of condensation 'or rain. In 204 experiments in which he tried to disperse clouds, 198 stopped rain or slowed it down, he said. Depends on Chemicals "It is possible to influence con densation and to discourage it, depending on the chemicals used and the atmospheric conditions," Hubbard said. At the conclusion of his pap er, he was challenged by Dr. Morris Nieburger, head of the meteorological department at UCLA. Nieburger asked Hub bard from the floor to "explain what you're talking about," and asked the chairman to take steps to reject the paper. Hubbard replied his opera tions over the Yakima Valley in Washington had helped save the cherry crops. Nieburger insisted that Hubbard describe his meth ods and to "give us something" besides just words. Paper Criticized "I don't think my paper should be stricken from the records," Hubbard said. "I don't want to enter into a formal discussion." Later, in a statement, Nieburg er said, "It is my impression that there was nothing in Mr. Hubbard's paper that gave any indication that his procedure was based on sound scientific prin ciples." Hubbard offered to take Nie burger to Yakima Valley and show him the results obtained with his methods. He denied he was using "double-talk" and "vague generalities" in describ ing his rain making process. "I can't tell whether you are trying to get information orput me on the spot," said Hubbard "I can put a spot of blue sky over the cherry orchards and keep it there or I can slice off a cloud. Nieburger then told Hubbard to take some pictures of the blue sky and mail them to him. The 30 cents was to cover postage costs. , ' I J DUST RISES IN THICK CLOUDS as two wild stallions tight ferociously In Eastern Montana corral.

( International) Chile Uranium Negotiation Slowed by Ending of Pact Santiago, Chile (U.R) i wmie s surprise cancellation oi her copper treaty with the Unit ed States has slowed up negotia tions for Chilean uranium, U. S. mining men admit. During part of April and May, representatives from the Atomic Energy commission studied ura nium deposits in this mineral rich country. Santiago newspa pers have published accounts of uranium being found near the village of Tambillos. As in the case of copper, how ever, Chile reportedly wanted a high price for her uranium. Must Match Bonus American engineers pointed out that any bonus paid Chile for uranium would have to be matched for the Belgian Congo, which at present is the main source of uranium sent to the United States. The one-year copper treaty just cancelled by Chile provided that 80 per cent of Anaconda Copper-Kennecott production in Chile be sold to the United States at 27 Vi cents a pound. American producers get 24 cents. Chile retained the other 20 per cent, estimated to total around 80,000 tons a year but has been disappointed in her hope of selling it at Jiigher prices on the world market. The optimistic estimate that this copper could be sold at 54 cents a pound was used in pre paring the Chilean national bud get for 1952. Now Chile hopes to negotiate a new copper agreement with the United States at possibly 33 cents, a pound, covering the to tal production of the American owned mines in Chile. Chilean representatives are aware of the problem posed to Americans of holding United States prices at lower levels, and of the unfavor able reaction in Arizona, Neva da and Montana if the spread in favor of Chilean copper were made even greater. They hope, however, to put their story across and to con vince the United States that It is worth $10,000,000 or even $15, 000,000 to maintain a friend in a critical area. They likewise hope that Con gress will continue to keep sus pended the two per cent tax on foreign copper. Prefer lo Be Friends Diplomatic observers believe that in the forthcoming copper negotiations, Chile will refer discreetly to Bolivia as an ex ample of what can happen when a too-stiff price policy is rigidly maintained. The Chilean position may be summed up more or less as fol lows: "Bolivia is lost. We are your friends. We have always worked with you. Don't throw ui over like Bolivia." It 'is generally granted here that Chile made an effort to keep her 20 per cent from going to Russia. There was some move ment of Chilean copper to the Soviet zone, principally through Antwerp, Belgium and thence to Czechoslovakia but Chile tried to block the trans-shipments and diversions through Belgium, Holland and Switzerland when ever they were discovered. 26 Valley Youths Named to Attend Beaver Boys State The names of 26 Rogue valley boys who will take part in Beav er Boys State June 22 through 28 at Willamette university in Salem were announced here to day by Medford Post No. 15, American Legion.
