“Only about 15% of time, money, and manpower is spent on espionage and such. The other 85% is a slow process which we call either ideological subversion or active measures [meaning] psychological warfare… What it basically means is to change the perception of reality …. to such an extent that, despite the abundance of information, no one is able to come to sensible conclusions in the interests of defending themselves, their families, their community, and their country.”

Burn acreage in the US through July 7 (700,000 acres) is lowest in the past ten years and less than one third of the ten year average.

“In the conterminous United States during the preindustrial period (1500- 1800), an average of 145 million acres burned annually. Today only 14 million acres (federal and non-federal) are burned annually by wildland fire from all ignition sources.”

“Every year an average of 31,000,000 acres of forest land is burned over—an area larger than the State of New York.

Old trees still reveal scars of fires that occurred centuries ago… There are scar records of conflagrations in the big tree forests of California-as far back as A.D. 245 and again in 1441, before any white man had set foot in the West. We know that extensive fires swept over the forested mountain slopes of Colorado in 1676, 1707, and 1722, for venerable Englemann spruces still bear the scars. White spruce forests in Maine likewise tell of a fire that burned some 200 square miles in 1795.”

Six months of record cold, snow and rain have left Wyoming in a desperate state. This morning’s hike was very cold and wet.

The US government has no long-term daily temperature day for most of the planet, yet they determined that July 3rd was the “world’s hottest day.”

The vast majority of NOAA’s daily temperature data is from the US, where July 3 was the 49th hottest since 1895.

“WORLD IS HOTTER, SCIENTIST REPORTS

Temperature Constantly on Rise Since Turn of Century, J.C. Kincer Finds

FAR-FLUNG RECORDS CITED

uowest Natural Reading Given as Minus 94.4°—Highest Is Recorded as 136.4°

The temperature of the world we live in has been constantly rising since the turn of the century, the American Institute of Physics symposium on temperature was told yesterday by Joseph C. Kincer of the United States Weather Bureau, Washington. The symposium closed its three-day convention at the Ho- tel Pennsylvania. |

That there have been major changes in geological climate, Mr. Kincer pointed out, has long been known, but climatologists have considered historic climate as a rather stable thing with short- period variations of considerable magnitude, but without especially significant secular trends covering long periods.

However, he added, since the turn of the century ‘there has been such a persistent trend to higher temperatures, world-wide in scope, as to suggest that the orthodox conception of the stability of climate needs some revision at least.”

Examples of Trend Cited

Mr. Kincer cited several examples of this trend to abnormal warmth in the last two decades. These included Portland, Ore., where seventeen of the last twenty years have been warmer than normal, with 1921 as the warmest year on record; Omaha, Nep., where fifteen of the last twenty years were warmer than normal, with 1931 the warmest year of record; Washington, seven- teen of the last twenty years warmer than normal, with 1921 the warmest year on record, and every year above normal since 1926, and Cape Town, South Africa, with nineteen of the last twenty years warmer than normal, and 1927 the warmest’ on record.

“This trend to higher temperatures,’’ Mr. Kincer said, ‘this been general over the globe. Summaries of monthly records published in the Reseau Mondial for the twenty-three years from 1910 to 1932 for which this publication is available, show that for this period the world as a whole had subnormal temperatures only a year or two, approximately normal for a couple of
years, and considerably above nor- | Mal in all other cases.”

The lowest natural temperature observed in the world, Mr. Kincer said, is minus 94.4 degrees, re- corded in the Siberian cold zone in February, 1892. The highest natural temperature in the world, 136.4 degrees, was observed in Tripolitania, Libya, North Africa, in September, 1922.”
