The American Association for the Advancement of Science was founded in 1848 and incorporated in1874. Its objects are to further the work of scientists, to facilitate cooperation among them, toimprove the effectivenoss of science in the promotion of human welfare, and to increase public under-standing and appreciation of the Importance and promise of the methods of science in human progress.

AMERICAN ASSOCIATION FORTHE ADVANCEMENT OF SCIENCE

Science serves its readers as a forum for thepresentation and discussion of important issuesrelated to the advancement of science, includingthe presentation of minority or conflicting pointsof view, rather than by publishing only materialon which a consensus has been reached. Accord-ingly, all articles published in Science-includingeditorials, news and comment, and book reviews-are signed and reflect the individual views of theauthors and not official points of view adopted bythe AAAS or the institutions with which the authorsare affiliated.

A Fellowship with Essence

Mexico City is an exciting city-the heart of a great nation, geo-

graphically, economically, politically, and spiritually. Built on the site ofthe ancient Aztec city of Tenochtitlan, its anthropological and archeo-logical treasures are magnificent. Future-bound, its art and architectureare truly spectacular. Vital, bustling, doubling in size-from 4.8 tonearly 9 million-in the last decade, it has all the problems of the mod-ern city; noise, air pollution, ciuidades perdidas-its "lost cities." But it alsohas a vigorous program of urban redevelopment that has produced trulyimpressive results (for example, the Presidente Adolfo Lopez Mateoscomplex provides clean, modern, landscaped housing for nearly 70,000persons downtown) and a new mass transit system that is the envy of thehemisphere (the metro covers some 26 miles and moves a million persons

a day in quiet comfort in its sparkling, rubber-tired cars). It is an idealsetting for what we anticipate will be the most exciting event in the recenthistory of AAAS.

"Science and Man in the Americas" is a 2-week program of lectures,symposia, and informal discussions of topics central to the future devel-opment and well-being of the Western Hemisphere: questions of nutritionand food supply, development of arid lands, meeting future energy re-

quirements, preserving the environment, coping with population change,protecting against earthquakes, developing the resources of the sea, andopening up new opportunities in education. Hosted and managed byCONACYT (National Council of Science and Technology of Mexico) andcosponsored by AAAS, it is a truly international affair. Planned byan international editorial committee, its costs are being covered byCONACYT and AAAS, as well as by gifts and grants from both publicand private sources. Speakers will come from more than 30 nations-virtually every country in the hemisphere plus those other countries of theworld where previous experience has provided useful insights into theproblems around which the program is built. Already the meeting hasstimulated interesting developments in the host country. A program ofuniversity scholarships has emerged from program planning. A specialcompetition among young people, similar to the Science Fairs long popularin the United States, is now under way throughout Mexico. Radio andtelevision programs, keyed to the content of the program, are attractingwide public interest. A competition for Mexican film-makers, establishedin connection with the International Science Film Festival, has attracted70 entries, far exceeding expectation.

In May of last year, CACTAL (Conference on the Application ofScience and Technology to the Development of Latin America) was heldin Brazilia under the sponsorship of the Organization of American States.Its agenda focused on regional and national needs as they translate intoscientific and technological requirements for effective, ameliorative action.The Mexico City meeting, 20 June through 4 July 1973, is a logical sequelto CACTAL, with an important difference. CACTAL was a government-

to-government conference. "Science and Man in the Americas" will be a

people-to-people sharing, a chance to join the interests and talents ofindi,vidual scientists, engineers, and laymen in the context of some ofthe crucial issues confronting our special part of the world. It is an

opportunity to become acquLainted, to exchange views, and to create an

importaint new international colleagLueship. We hope that every memberof AAAS who can, will coImec with tIs to "hear a little song and . speaka few reasonable words" and to become part of a "fellowship withessence. WILLIAM BEVAN
