NATIVES WHO EAT THEIR VICTIMS
Murderous Raid By
Papuan Tribe
FLESH FED TO PIGS
Port Moresby, Papua, Patrol officer Jack Hides, in the course of a patrol of Luloipa and Ivane. Valleys, Kununia Ri- ver, learned of a murderous raid on natives in the Laloipa Valley by members of the Lopelo tribe. At full moon on New Year's eve, Hides, accompanied by a small party of armed native po- lice, a chief of Laloipa and six tribesmen, made a surprise visit to the village of the raiders and Isurrounded the houses.
Chief Gopa, surrendered, say- ing there was no one else in his house, but the police found two men buried like moles in ashes under it....
These two men and Chief Go- the [pa, were later identified as
leaders of the raid and admitted having killed four men. Evidence! was gained of another seven men having been killed.
