PLAN PROPOSED TO STABILISE WEATHER KEEPING ICE PACK AT POLES ON MOVE. - , . WASHINGTON, Feb. 14. Engineers may. some day partially stabilise the weather of Europe, India, Australia, South Africa and Argentina, according to Herbert Janvrin Browne, oceanographer and long-range weather forecaster. If the leading countries of the world would send a fleet of ico cutters to break loose and move out of the Arctic and Antarctic regions regulated amounts of ice instead of allowing enormous masses to flow out in single years, weather in these countries would be more certain, Mr. Browne believes. Meteorologists agree that the irregular flow of ico from the Antarctic fields is a major cause of droughts in Argentina and Uruguay, in South Africa and Australia, and. in part of the failure of the southwest monsoon rains which results in crop failures and famines in India. Mr. Browne points out. Modern engineering can remedy these conditions at an expense less than that of the maintenance of a fleet of battleships and with far greater influence toward peace and harmons of the world, he declares.

''The melting of 1000 square miles of pack ice with an average thickness of eight feet with lower the temperature of 7000 square miles of surface water of equal depth from a temperature of 50 degrees to a temperature of approximately 32, Mr. Browuo says, “It is evident,” ho adds, “that with a small flow of ice and a widely expanded high temperature area of the 3ulf .Stream drift from Iceland north to Spitsbergen and eastward around Scandinavia, a hot summer with marked drought could be anticipated in Northern Europe. _ J “Could the ice drive be raised to 000 square miles by the operation of a I fleet of ice breakers, tho warm water area could be so measurably reduced as to keep the temperature of northern Europe at a normal figure and, barring extremely high solar radiation, maintain its rainfall equilibrium.” The moon plays an important part in determining seasonal weather, Mr. Browne-believes, despite the contrary opinion, of, atmospheric meteorologists. Mr. Browne sustains, his, argument by numerous graphs and tables of historic.
