The origin of cosmic ray nucleons from within individual SNR for energies below about 10 exp 15 eV is quite plausible theoretically, but a direct observational verification has been difficult up to now. An important question is therefore whether the properties of other spiral galaxies are consistent with this picture. The problem is considered through the study of observed statistical correlations for disk galaxies and a detailed analysis of the nearby starburst galaxy M82. Both types of evidence impressively confirm the supernova origin if pulsars are indeed not born with millisecond periods.
