Head hunting in Solomon Islands linked to wartime shifts
A Vancouver World's Sydney correspondent notes that before the war British and occasional German ships patrolled to curb cannibalism among island natives. Troop transport needs led to their recall, freeing head hunters to raid coastal villages. In one raid a mountain tribe secured 26 heads with little punishment due to slow white organization. Raiders grow bolder while no Europeans are yet attacked.
