MONKEYS GET NEW PLAYGROUND—A tropical Paradise where monkeys may run wild, live es they wish, throw coconuts as they please, is being established by the United States Government on 33-acre Santiago Island off the cast coast of Puerto Rico. Technlenity the animals are gibbons, Imported from Slam, to aid in experimental studies of parasites, nutrition and psychology. Studies will be under the supervision of the School of Troplent Medicine, operated by the University of Puerto Rico, under the auspices of Columbia University of New York City. Harvard University also has an interest in the project. Above is the main building of the School of Tropical Medicine in San Juan, maintained by the Insular Government of Puerto Rico. Other pictures are types of monkeys used for experiments. The gibbon ape at top centre is a member of the family that will run wild on Santiago. Three pairs are to be turned loose on the island at the start and if they thrive, 300 more females will be imported and the school will go in for breeding on a large scale. Duin obtained in the studies will be avaliable to health agencies, both in the tropics and in the North. Unneeded monkeys probably will join the 12,000 used annually in the U. S.
