1. GC: You will have in this room a printed report of Long Range Weather Forecast, dated January 15, 1926, by Herbert Janvrin Browne. You will answer the questions as I ask them relative to statements made in this report and the solar theory upon which this report is based.
2. EC: Yes, we have the report as printed here. There are many conditions given in same that are rather of the speculative nature than from sound reasoning. There may be expected many conditions to arise that will remind the people (who think) of conditions as have existed from period to period, age to age, and these in this report have been attempted to be related with the solar phases - the combinations rather of these and of conditions in the land and in the sea. Rather we would say that the emphasis be placed in the condition of density, or population, combined with the solar conditions to bring about certain changes in the sea and the currents therein, than that of the sun radiated on account of sun spots.
3. For, by actual experience there will be found that the greatest degree of heat in given places has been and may be reported when the larger sun spots show, or are in good position of being observed from earth's aspect or view.
4. The changes will take place in the coming year - there will be found, when all these conditions are taken together, rather in THIS respect, that there will be for the next few years many changes of an exceptional nature in heat and cold. Not by radiation nor by the courses changed in the sea; for the heat is as the reflection from that created in the earth's plane, rather than that administered. Only in the RELATIONS to each other would these be considered.
5. Ready for questions.
6. (Q) Is Herbert Janvrin Browne's theory correct - whereby weather is forecasted several years in advance by measuring solar radiation and its action on the ocean currents? (A) Were these varied accounts considered of that information intimated here, these would be NOT correct. For this may be established as a theory: That thrown off will

be returned. As the heat or cold in the various parts of the earth is radiated off, and correlated with reflection in the earth's atmosphere, this in its action changes the currents or streams in the ocean; and the waters bring or carry the heat in a manner to the various shores, or bring cold or carry cold to the various shores.
7. (Q) Is H. J. Browne's contention correct that the summer of 1927 in North America will be like winter? (A) Rather the winter of 1926 will be nearer like some summers, and the summer of 1927 will show many changes, as will be seen in '26 and '28. Not entirely correct, no.
8. (Q) What will be the effect on the growing wheat crop in North America? (A) This will produce in various sections according to the various conditions produced by these variations in climate. There may be expected that the excess of grain supply in the world will be short in '27, '28, '29 and '30 the shortest.
9. (Q) What will be the weather conditions in South America November and December 1926, and January 1927? (A) Near the NORMAL for the world's conditions, see? That is, there will be the variations there as will be seen in the northern latitude - such as is seen in the European countries during May, June... [GD's note: A mouse gnawed perhaps another month or two from the original paper here.]
10. (Q) Is Abbe Gabriel's table and theories relative to lunar solar cycle correct? (A) Nearer correct than the radiation of solar conditions and their effect on the currents in sea.
11. (Q) Will this weather change be serious enough in North American country to ruin growing grain crops and endanger health of its people? (A) In various sections, yes; such as will be seen in Montana, Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas, Oklahoma and portions of Illinois and Wisconsin.
12. (Q) What could be done to diminish suffering and panics? (A) The conditions will be met in the manner in which the peoples meet the various conditions which of necessity arise.
13. (Q) Any other suggestions? (A) There may be many books written concerning these various conditions and their various phases. These are the questions which have been asked. We are through.
