Reassuring Dvdpif! all the social di.i-"always of our timcs. there is much sprin- i:-ineous goodwill and human t'i'inlll33r passion working in the orriinar,v ways of life.

It was I hnartwarming demonstration of hu- man compassion in its highcst form. Now comes word from Australia describing another surge of public concern; this time for I dog. The director of a crucify prevention or- ganization in Mclbourne announced that an Alaskan had been found wandering and would be dcstroyr-d if I home could not he found for him. Within a few hours after the announcement had been broadcast. the report says, thousands of callers swamped the city's telephone ex- Ph-'-IHIIP with offers of I homc for the stray animal. Even after a home had been selected. people kept calling up. asking if perhaps some other dog needed care and attention. it is all very reassuring to those who fear that simple kindness is passing from the earth and that cold. heartless Iecularivatlon is first taking control of human society. Canadian Films Abroad Evidently. the Canadian Film Bnnrtl is I billy ffflilnfziitfon. Apart from its Domltllori-vrirle activities. it carries on extensive operations abroad. LII! year. for instance. more than 834 million Europeans saw This is It ” . . thepbiggest foreign audience; Ininrlftiir to I recent report. it made films of one kind and another, compared to less than 500.000 the year before. With the large potential audience in mind the Board plans. to send a distributing expert to New Delhi for a two year stay. Although the Board makes sound movies in 15 languages, besides Eng. iish and French, the Asiatic dialects are so numerous that it is considered inipossihle to catalogue them all, let alone translate them. The idea now is to supply the operator with I com. mentary in the local tongue that he can read off as the film is being played. The reasons behind the Board's attempts to promote international viewing of its films are described in liie l'Opnrt as (i) G0Od politics. By means of the films people grasp an understanding of Canadian life which they would not get otherwise.
