Three
ChocoIndians
Ape Ways Of
White Cousins
WASHINGTON. Aug. 25 —<U.»—
The primitive Choco Indiana of
Darien, after centuries of stubborn
resistance to change, finally are
beginning to adopt some of the in-
novations of the white man's 20th
century.
This finding was reported by Dr.
Matthew W Stirling, ethnologist
of the Smithsonian Institution.
Stirling conducted an expedition
into the little Panama province
last winter His was the frit study
to be made of the Choco culture in
25 years.
The Chocos have hot taken up
the clothing, housing, or food of
the white man. but they do make
use of many items which make
their traditional pursuits easier
Pot instance, the blbwgun with its
poison darts has given way in many
cases to the .22 rifle. The out-
board motor and nets of European
manufacture greatly increase the
catch of the native fisherman.
Game and fish are not cooked
on the open fire of old. but on
portable pressure stoves. Nor does
the fire provide the only light, now
that many of the inhabitants have
discovered the "magic” of the kero-
sene lamp.
Both sexes still paint their bodies
and faces in elaborate designs, the
stains being obtained, from local
plants. But even -here there are
European influences for the native
stains have been supplemented by
lipstick and indelible pencils ob-
tained from traders.
The Chocos have a reputation
for hostility toward outsiders and
this belligerency has kept out most
scientists and traders. Many natives
have visited the outside world,
however, some even learning
languages other than their own,
and it is from this contact that
the changes have come.

Accident Gives Clue
To New Use for Spray
DAVIS, Calif., Aug. 25—<U.P)—One of
the accidental discoveries that con-
sistently has marked scientific
progress occurred here recently in
spraying operations to control rice
field leaf miner.
W. Harry Lange, associate pro-
fessor of entomology on the Davis
campus of the University of Cali-
fornia. was conducting Dieldrln
spray operations to control leal
miner.
However, rice growers reported
the spray, in addition to aiding the
control of the leaf blight, also kill-
ed gnats, mosquitoes and flies.
Many of the mosquitoes were of
the species that transmit encepha-
litis and malaria.
Lange said the Dieldrin spray
may replace DDT in some areas
where the insects have built up a
resistance to that insecticide.
