A. milestone in Canada’s. for-

days of 1961.

The announcement that diplo- matic ties were to be established with tiny El Salvador was not in itself a particularly big de- velopment, ;

The Central American repub- lic with an area of about 12,000 square miles and a population of 2,000,000 was only one of 16 ‘countries with which Canada es- tablished formal relations last year.:*:

-What gave the move signifi- carte, in the thinking of Ottawa observers, was that El Salvador was the last of the 20 Latin American republics to enter into

pletion ‘ofthe process of estab- ee ties with Latin a and question of whether Canada should join the Organization of American States. ; They .concede, however, that the move into the hemispheric

\ association could hardly be

taken until such bonds had been established. “
