Rec. Aug. 21, 5.5 p.m. Rome, August 20. Professor Piecard said that he saw no storms, ice or snow in the strathosphere. The temparatures were uniform between 50 and 6Q degrees below zero, Centigrade. The winds blow horizontally and consaquently will not affect travsllers, who I believe 'will be crossing from Paris to New1 York in six hours in future. "I probably will not make my next ascent from Hudson Bay," said Professor Piccard, "as I am not acclimat'sed. A Canadian or Americari scientist must underfcake the work."
