Description: Striking contrast between ice-choked New York harbor and the sunny San Blas Indian country. Naked children equally at home land or water, their fathers wear Western clothes, their mothers bright shawls and nose-rings. One of the few Indian peoples that has preserved racial purity. Through the Panama Canal, Panama City—new and old. Great Sloth.
