Lord Salishtttgt made no mention of it In his letter of resignation but It is more than likely that he was thinking of another day nearly tucrtly t'c:trs ago when another Brit- ish Prime Minister enlcrcd into an act of "rzencrnus slatcsmansilip", only to discover that however it may hc distzuiscd appeasement is never a good thing.

EDITORIAL NOTES

Science Service reports that in El Salvador footprints at least llflfl years old have been discovered. Much older are the "footprints on the sanda of time."

In commenting on the flow of American radio programs to Canada the Fowler Commission appeared to believe that the better programs do more harm to Canadian culture than the poorer one; No doubt. the thesis can be proved, but on the face of it the argument is a bit obscure.
