Abstract
DR. CALLAWAY points out that there would be nothing in the nature of the older deposits to indicate the existence of excessive tidal action. One point, however, suggests itself to me in connection with the increased force of winds and currents, which must necessarily have accompanied the high tides and more rapid rotation of earlier epochs.
