A silent spring crept over London, right into the House of Lords, where they were debating the dangers of Pesticides and toxic chemicals. In the U.S., declared Lord Douglas of Barloch, practically every meal contained some DDT. Labor Peer Lord Edward Shackleton, 51, son of famed explorer, Ernest Shackleton, couldn't have agreed mre. Why there was a cannibal in Polynesia, said he, who no longer allows his tribe to eat Americans. Their fat is contaminated. Whe have about two parts per million of DDT in our bodies. Americans about elen parts per million. His Lordship's conclusion: "We are rather more edible."
