CANNIBAL PROCLAIMS MEAT OF WHITE MAN TOO SALTY

NEW YORK. March 19.--Gay young sparks in America ,who the girls consider “too fresh" can now win an argument about this.

Kakoai, one of the last remaining old-time cannibals of the Marques- ian group. says that he never cared ior white men because they were “too salty!’

Kakoai, which translates into “cry of the rooster," admitted this to F. W. Murnau, Hollywood film director when he visited the ivinrquesian archipelago in his search for native talent, to use'in the filming of "Tabu.” on the Tahitian group.

Through a, trader interpreter. Kakoai admitted that he had eaten “man meat times without" lumber."

But according to him, while the white man may be supreme on the hoof, he's not so good in the stew pot.
