The important thing in this case is that the recommendations of the Con- ciliation Board were accepted be- fore the dispute had time to get out of hand. It is to be hoped that from now on, at least for the life of the new contract, the railways will be able to function without threat of labour trouble. It is to be hoped, too, that the unions will not get into the habit of asking for more and more benefits every time a contract comes up for renewal. There is. after all, a limit to what any special group may properly expect in the way of eco- nomic concessions.

On Tbe Edge Of Space

Science stands on the verge of sending the first man-made moon beyond the earth's atmosphere-fub filling the 40-year-old dream of an American rocket pioneer named Robert. H. Goddard. Neither men nor animals will ride the first mis- slle into space. Yet it will carry with it almost limitless promise for the future, an article in the National Geographic Magazine predicts.

Within two years, th e dis- tinguished sstrophysicist Dr. Heinz Haber writes, the first artificial satellite will be circling the world, climaxing a. great research project carried on intensively since 1955. His article, "Space Satellites, Tools

t

of Earth Research," is illustrated by I

a series of color paintings of how the tiny new moon will appear. racing high above the earth. The dramatic pictures were painted by William N. Palmstrom of th 9 National Geographic Society staff. For de- tailed accuracy, the artist and roc- ket. experts checked such points as stiir positions, shndings of color at great heights, perspective. and the exact paths the satellites will follow at five miles per second .'-iroluid the earth-one complete circuit every 90 minutes.

Thirty inches or less in diameter and weighing about. 211,52 polinds, the orbiting sphere will have a clear view both of earth and far beyond. As it sweeps across continents and oceans, high in the fringe of atmo- sphere where the last traces of air become lost in outer space, it.s motion may reveal many secrets of the earth's gravity and qomposition, cosmic bombardments. and the fac- tors thnt cause and affect weather. "The artificial satellite will not be

the beginning of s new-weapons de- ”' velopment, and it will not be built because its creators are planning a

but one feels that in Britain itself, to say nothing of the wider world community, there will be many who will wonder whether magnanimity would not have served the British cause as well as, perhaps better than, the inexorable carrying out of a statute established in crisis. Fol- lowing so soon after the deportation of Archbishop Makarios-again a perfectly legal order--the incident could very well postpone, perhaps indefinitely, the restoration of law and order, which of course is the first aim of the authorities. "An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth" may be a logical formula in face of terror. Yet, it must be said that mercy has been known to serve the purpose of peace equally well.

EDITORIAL NOTES

The general view is that the more cheerful a worker is the better work he is likely to do. Not so, reports a research team; the really efficient workers are those who grumble a lot.

A professor says that the late Sigmund Freud made words like Id. Ego, a nd Supcrcgo, "virtually household usages". It isn't quite as bad as that, surely. One feels cer- tain there are many, many house-

holds where the tricky words are never spoken. C O U Dr. Jonas E. Salk, the origin-

ator of the polio vaccine that bears his name, stated recently that the vaccine can now give lifclong im- munity against. paralysis, although the mildcr forms of the disease may resist total eradication for some time, pending further developments.

An F.B.I. report reveals that major crime in the big American cities is down slightly from what it was a year ago. Strangely. the rate in cities under 250,000 population and in rural areas has gone up a bit. There's a worthy subject for re- search. It used to be the other way round.

German researchers have dis- covered what it was that made an- cient Roman wrestlers so tough: honey. They ate huge amounts of it daily. To do its best work, the re- searchers advise. the honey has to be in its natural state. not heated to make it keep longer. This should be good news for splarists.

Q 0 O

Scientists report that the cir- cumference of the earth is a half mile shorter than was believed. They call this information "very import- ant" for the artificial satellite pro- ject to be launched next year by the United States. It would be hard to think up any other reason why the

my letter ”Against l"llioridallun" in your issue of May 7th. ii is

g refreshing to come across a pap-

er which in fairness to its read- ers gives them a chance to see the other side of the picture on the action of fluorine.

Your Note following my letter is based on a pamphlet entitled "Comments on the Opponents of Fluoridation". Your readers will be interested to know that previ- ous issues of that pamphlet con- tained ccrtain statements on me slid on my work, which, hcing totally untrue and libcllous in naliire, had to be omitted in the following issucs.

The statements in the "Com- ments." to which your Note re- fers, likewise require r(-rlifira- tion. it is true that the biblilr graphy of the Report of the United Kingdom Mission which came to study fluoridation in the United States failed to list a single reference to my work, but everybody familiar with the methods employed by the fluorid- ators knows that ignoring the work carried out by their op- poncnls is one of thcse methods, irrespective of whether the fluor- ldators' "unselfish. philanthropic. and altruistic" activities are put into praciive in Great Britain, in the United Stalcs. or iii any other distant part of the world.

Concerning the second state- mnnt taken from tho 'fFuin- ments", according to wliicli "in- 1952 the National llescarch Coun- cil publishcd a 565 page book with 2016 references entitled 'Survey of the Literature of Dental Caries', of wliich chapter of 90 pages was devoted to "Fluorine and Denial Caries, but none of Dr. Spira's iiumcrniis papers was montloncd in this bilillograpliy", may I point out that it is not the job of a practis- ing physician and research work- er on the subject of chronic flu- orine polsoning to deal with the problem of dental caries? it was. therefore. quite legitimate for the Survey to omit the 34 puprrs which i had publishcd on the purcly mcdical aspcrl of the dis- easc. Not in one of them have I touched upon lill' problrm of dental dct-ay. The study of this problem should be left in thc dcnlnl proics.-inn. so iilliil as it does not facts with Vlilli'h it cannot be cxpccictl to be iliinilisr.

Unlike the other great harvests of the Pacific- lislibut and herring-the salmon is not a lifetime dweller in the public ocean. it is spawned and grows up in the steltered waters of rivers, and the nations owning such rivers" rightly or wrongly feel that they have a preferential interest in their yield.

The Russian salmon spawn in the mighty Amur river. Ours spawn in the Fraser and other river systems. The third but comparatively insignificant course

of Pacific salmon is the smell:

Last year, Japanese fishermen could only catch six million sal- mon in their own territorial wat- ers: lhat was presumably the to- lal available catch from the runs in Japanese rivers. But the

in contrast to that big Japan- ese haul, Russia last year could only approximately match our latch of about i30,000.000 pounds. ii is impossible to compare with act-lirzicy the Japanese system of mcasuring catch as so many fish, as against our system quoting so many pounds of salmon.

('ommcrcially-caught species of siilmnn may each range from about 4 pounds up to 30 pounds nr more. Our British Columbia plants canned one and a half mil- lion cases last year; each case being the equivalent of eighty pounds of landed fish before trim- nuns.
