MONGOOSE A PEST
IF TRANSPLANTED
FR0MQLDW0RLD
Little Creature Is Dr. Jekyll
and Mr. Hyde of Animal
Kingdom Deadly Enemy
of Poisonous Serpents
WASHINGTON, D. C. (Spl.) A
hero in the old world, a peat and
curse In the new (hat in brief la
the record of the mongoose whose
courage In battling the hooded co
bras of India was lmmortatlzed by
Kipling In his tale of Rtkkl-tikki-tavl.
"Every once In a while someone
who has been reading the 'Jungle
Book' writes to Washington to sug
gest that this doughty little animal
be Introduced Into the United States
to combat snakes and rats," says a
bulletin from the Washington. D. C,
headquarters of the National Geo
graphic society.
Can't He Imported to V. S,
"Then it becomes necessary for
some government official to disillu
sion the letter-writer by setting
forth that the mongoose la a Dr.
Jekyll and Mr. Hyde of the animal
kingdom who shows his worst side
as soon as he Is transplanted Into I
a part of the world where nature
did not originally place him. In fact, i
one way to get arrested is to bring
a mongoose Into the United States.
Their Introduction has been for
bidden by federal statute for the
last 35 years.
"If the sharp-toothed, weoaelllke
little animal would eat the poison
ous snakes and stop there, everything
might be all right. But It does not.
"Down In the West Indies Ja
maica In particular inhabitants still
have a vivid recollection of hun
dreds of mongooses, offspring of
four or five prolific pairs, overrun
ning the countryside and killing not
only the snakes and lizards but the
chickens. Iambs, kids, and plgllnga.
Even dogs and cots were not safe
Many kinds of birds were all but
wiped out, for here was a new peril
with which nature had never taught
them to cope.
Upset Nuture's Balance.
"For the mongoose this was a para
dise. Imported originally to kill the
rata which were ruining the cane-
flelds. It all but exterminated these
peeta In short order. But when the
rata were no longer numerous the
ever-Increasing hordes of mongooses
had to turn to other food with de
vastating result. The killing of
birds, snakes, and lleards eliminated
some of the leading enemies of
harmful Insects which promptly In
creased until they became a plague.
The whole dcllcato balance of nature
was upset and it took years to re
store it. A price was placed on the
head of Rlkki-tlkkl-tavi and he was
hunted down relentlessly. On one
estate 1400 mongooses were killed In
a few months.
"On another British West Indian
Island. St. Lucla. the story was much
the same, although here there ex
isted an exceedingly deadly snake,
the fer-de-lance, which has been
virtually wiped out since the coming
of the mongoose. To thia the lmml-

Little Helen Stam, six-months-otd baby whose missionary parertt

(Associated Press Photo.
grant frcm the old world contributed I
perhaps more by the Indirect means :
of eating the food, primarily rata1
and mice, on which the serpent was
wont to feed, than by direct attack.
The terrible lance-head viper proved
no such easy opponent as the hooded
cobras of India against which tne
mongoose through untold genera
tions has perfected a lethal form
of attack.
Hair An Armor.
"When a mongoose meets Its sworn
enemy, the serpent, Its long hair
stands straight up until the little
creature in truth seems swollen to
twice Its normal aloe. The bristles
deceive the anake Into striking short
and also form a cushioning armor
which the death -dealing fangs find
it hard to penetrate.
"Wholly erroneous are the stories
that the mongoose la Immune to
the snake's poison or tha when bit
ten It goes off and finds a root or
herb which It eats as an antidote.
To conquer his cobra enemy, Rikki-tlkki-tavl
who gets that name from
the sound of bis war-cry depends
upon speed, courage, agility, and
tactical Instinct Inherited from
long line of snake -fighting fore
bears. He tires out the cobra by
drtwlng repeated lungea. Then. o
swiftly that the eye cannot ioiiow.
he darts in and crunches the back
of the head Just above the hood.
There he clings though the thresh
ing snake may almost bang out his
bruins.
"In India the mongoose la do
mesticated to serve aa protection
against reptiles and to rid houses of
ruts and mice.
"Ancient Egyptians lavished affec
tion and even veneration upon
member of the mongoose clan, the
Ichneumon or pharaon's rat, which
not only devoured anakes. rats, ana
lizards, but kept the number of
crocodiles within bounds by feeding
to great entent upon their eggs
"In Just such fashion remote an
cestors of tha mongoose In far-off
geological times may have hastened
the downfall of the enormous acaiy
creatures of the age of reptiles by
the simple expedient or eating their
eg?a. for here Is one of nature's
oldest blood-feuds."

IN STORY OF MAN
Central Asia Believed by
Scientists to Hold Key
Bandits, Disease Make
Exploration Difficult Task
WASHINGTON. D. 0. (Spl.) In
Central Asia, scientists tgree. many
missing chapters" tn the story of
mankind await explorers who ere
courageous, or lucky, enough to es
cape the bandit hordes, earthquakes
and pestilence that render the area
leas accessible to the foreigner than
the far away Antarctic,
A cable dispatch from Linchow, In
western China, reports that hundreds
of rolls of Buddhist classics, musty
with age, were recently dug up In
the wind-swept courtyard of a mon
astery that flourished more than 1,-
S00 years ago. The scrolls, written In
both Sansktrt and Chinese', mention
a far away city, believed to have been
Babylon; but. more important, bits
of pottery, strikingly similar to the
eartheuware then In use In Mesopo
tamia, were found near the scrolls.
The ruins of this monastery were
discovered accidentally by ft Taolst
monk about thirty years ago. Strug
gltng through the sand dunes to the
Tung Huang district, he came upon
what appeared to be a brass table
top. Later excavation revealed It to
be the crown of a huge statue of
Buddha, with the monastery and it
cred caves near-by.
Findings of a Geographic Expedition
During Its tractor-car crossing of
Asia along the trail ox Marco Polo
tn 1933. the Citroen-Haardt Expedi
tion studied another of Central Asia's
most Interesting ancient sites Ba-
sakllk. In Slnklang (Chinese Turks
stan), a few hundred miles west of
the scene of the recent Lanchow die '
coverles.
Dr. Maynard Owen Williams, Na
tional Geographic Society representa
tive with the Citroen-Haardt Expe
dition, describes the experiences of
an archeologlcal group which spent
mora than a week studying and re
producing strange frescoes and cave
temples of this hidden corner of the
world.
"We spent eight busy days In the
vicinity or Bazakllk,' Dr. Williams
writes, "while Jacovlcff, the expedi
tion artist, with a gasoline heater
keeping his color palette from freez
ing, copied frescoes and the rest of
us shivered in dark, dusty caverns
behind our motion picture and na
tural cameras.
"In Baxnkllk we found that exca
vated grottoes bearing Uigur Inscrip
tions had been taken over by the
Buddhists, who roofed them with
mud bricks, forming new arched cell-
lngs. One frescoe was evidently Manl-
chean an ascetic religion, founded
by a Babylonian, which spread to
Rome, China, and India, Man! taught
that light and goodness fought
against darkness and evil In the souls
of men.
Original Frescoe Badly Damaged
"As copied byJscovleff, the Manl
chean fresco has something of the
delicacy and charm of a back drop
from some graceful scene of oriental
life, but the faded original was dark
and badly damaged and the writing
Indistinct.
"How long a time elapsed between
the Manlchean and the Buddhist
frescoes Is still a mystery, as Is much
of Central Asia's story, but there Is
enough Buddhist art remaining to
Indicate relationships reaching far to
the west and south. Chinese art seems
not to have Influenced the Bazakllk
frescoes.
"A celestial Jam band, ft Mona
Lisa smile, a bull -riding Siva, and ft
red-bearded 'barbarian' were clear
enough to have popular Interest.
These blue-eyed barbarians held up
their soft boots by suspenders, fast
ened to their belts. So did the Scyth
ians, and others whose graves mark
a route from Crimea, on the Black
Sea. to Mongolia. Here history may
not hang by a thread, but these boot
suspenders offer another clue to
since -forgotten Indo-European rela
tions and commerce with Cathay.
"Not only commerce, but are and
religion, politics and wood block type
(one of the rudiments of printing),
moved along the age-old 'Silk Routes'
between East and West, recalled to
day only by neglected ruins and 'lost
monasteries and shrines."
