Palawan, Invaded By 41st;
Is Land of Many Oddities
Washington, D. C. Pygmy all the way from 20,000 to 50,000,
natives adept with blowguns. 20- are the Bataks, pagan black
foot pythons, pitcher plants which 'pygmies resembling natives of the
uuium Andaman Islands more
than the related Negritos common
on Luzon. Skilled with' bow and
arrow for catching deer and big
game, they use blowguns and
poisoned darts to catch monkeys
and birds.
Creeping stealthily up on their
quarry perched high in a tree,
they send their darts with a sud
den puff. Their victim may con
tinue to perch for minutes, ap
parently unharmed, then fall to
the ground from the effects of
the poisoned barb.
Ebony, dyewoods, bamboo, cam
phor are among the island's use
ful trees, which include species
found nowhere else. Monkeys in
variety, a big ape called the
pakda, porcupines, unusual birds,
alligators and snakes await Yank
naturalists. Pythons over 22 feet
long, weighing 375 pounds, have
been found.
Palawan's agriculture is limited
to coastal land. Cattle, hogs,
goats, fowls; rice, tobacco, nut

mostly for home consumption..
hold nearly a quart of water.
edible birds' nests worth twice
their weight in- silver these are
a few of many strange sights in
store for , Yanks on Palawan,
southernmost big island of the
Philippines, says the National
Geographic Society. .
This elongated island, where
91st division GI'S' have landed,
has played only a small part in
Philippine trade development to
date. It has always been recog
nized as one of the strategically
important islands in the archi
pelago, however, because of its
fsition on trade routes from
dia and the Netherlands Indies
Manila and the ports of China.
Shaped like a frayed Manila
cheroot, Palawan's 278-mile length
and 17-mile average width make
it one of the largest of 7,083
Philippine islands, with an area
a little less than that of Connecti
cut. It runs from southwest to
northeast, forming a land bridge
that fills most of the South China
Sea gap between Borneo and Min
tloro, recaptured island south of
Manila Bay.
Palawan lies 600 miles east of
Asia's nearest mainland, the In
dochina coast. It forms a north
western side for the big, rectang
ular Suiu Sea. Because of the
sprinkling of reefs and shoals in
the South China Sea 200 miles
west from the island, much ship
ping normally moves along Pal
awan Passage, virtually within
sight of Palawan's long west
coast.
