NG Cannibals Are Good Talkers
Patrol Officer D. Butler, who re cently returned after spending 136 days among the still primitive savages of the Mt. Bosavi area of the Central New Guinea Highlands, reported two interesting things about the 3,000 people he visited.
These people still are cannibals— although, he says, they listened at tentively to members of his patrol v/ho told them that the Administra tion did not approve of the eating of human flesh.
These people also have among them great natural orators—some of whom addressed the patrol for hours on end.
