MONKEYS GET NEW PLAYGROUND-A troplegi Paradise where munkeys tony run wild, live as they wish, throw coconuts as they please, is being established by the United States Government on 33-nere Santiago Island off the east coast of Puerto Rico. Technically the animals are gibbons, imported from Slamn, to aid in experimental studies of parasites, nutrition and paychology. Studles will be under the supervision of the School of Tropical 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 kibbon ape at top centre is a member of the family that will rim wild on Santiago. Three pairs are to be turned loose on the island at the start and if they thrive, 300 mare females will be imported and the school will go in for breeding on a large scale. Data obtained in the studies will be available 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.
