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.

are keeping her military power. Remember, it's your bonds
and other forms of saving that keep your country strong.
And in these troubled times, peace is only for the strong!
So how about starting a patriotic program of regular savings
now by baying U. S. Defense Bonds through the Payroll
Savings Plan where you work. It's one sure way to savel
Here's how E Bonds now earn more money for youl

Otparonmtttiank, for tMrpalriohe delation,
th Airtuiie Coined and
meteorologists during the meet
ing of the American Association
for the Advancement of Science,
Pacific Division. 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. ,

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.
