Brazilian Tribe , Last to Be Studied by Whites, Mates Children at Four Years, Explorers Find

Bv VFA Service “T-Tl EW YORK, Oct. 21. —The \ white man knows all his neighbors now. In South American jungles beyond Theodore Roosevelt’s “River of Doubt,” Americans have studied and photographed what is believed to the last people on earth to come under the gaze of the white scientists. The Joseph McGoldrick expedition of Philadelphia traveled up the Amazon River, up the "River of Doubt,” now called the Roosevelt River, and into the jungles far beyond to find these people. It took forty days, from Manoas, the last white settlement, to reach these tribes. “White men probably have never been there before,” said Alec Besso, guide and interpreter to the expedition. which has just returned. Women like Skives The beliefs and customs of this primitive group, which has never been in contact with white people, are unique. Women are virtual slaves of the men. “We met two different tribes,” Besso says, “the Pirahas and Parintintins. The latter are the more warlike, the most ferocious. “They battle continually between themselves and their emnity is a bitter one. “Their marriage views and social customs are curious. The usual custom is for a boy, as soon as he becomes 13 or 14 years of age, to go out and prove his courage. He must hunt and fish. He must fight. Once he has proved he can take care of himself, he is allowed to choose his wife. Marry at 10 “The wife’ usually Is a girl of 10 or 11 years of age. They are married. There Isn’t any ceremony, but the relations between man and wife is just as rigid as if there were a million ceremonies. “Sometime it happens that the father of a little girl takes a liking to a boy. Even when the girl Is too young to marry—say 3 or 4 —l*s gives her to the boy, who, takes her Into his father's house and cares for her. This continues until she becomes about 10 and then their marriage is considered as completed. Solved Problem Incidentally, this expedition to Brazil erased the question mark which has hung over the “River of Doubt” ever since Theodore Roosevelt first named it that on his famous trip to South America. Roosevelt, ftfter plunging through the jungle came out at the source of a river the Identity of which he then was in doubt.

Hence its name. At first it was thought to have been a branch of the Aripuana River which flows into the Amazon. But the expedition established the fact that the “River of Doubt” now called River Roosevelt, Is the main stream the Aripuana Is merely a branch of it.
