INTERNATIONAL PEACE PARKS
Sir, —In a few years, the AngloSaxons will celebrate the sesquicentennial of peace • between the British Commonwealth and the United States of America. At that, time could attention properly be focused on the Waterton Lake-Glacier International Peace Park? These two adjoining national parks, one American, are welded into an international peace park. Is this not a striking example of a frontier with not one yard of barbed wire entanglement, one machine gun nest? One hopes Mexico soon will complete the Latin part of another to the south. Texas contributed generously to the creation of Big Bend National Park in the Big Bend of the Rio Grande for this very purpose.—Yours, etc., L. M. GOETHE. Sacramento, California, May 14, 1955.
