Studies made over the past sev eral years at Monkey Island, off the east coast of Puerto Rico, by Dr. Ray Carpenter of the psy chology department reveal that the social behaviour of our pri mate cousins offers excellent in dications of certain fundamental fixations underlying the social be haviour of man. Back in 1936 Dr. Carpenter con ceived the idea of founding .a col ony of free ranging monkeys un der constant scientific observation in order to add to a man's knowl !edge about , this nearest cousins in the animal world from the standpoint of social conduct. His project supported by the. School. of Tropical Medicine, an autonomous unit of the University of Puerto Ricb operating under the direction of Columbia Univer sity, Dr. Carpenter in 1938 trap ped more than 400 rhesus monk eys in India and released them on 37-acre Santiago Island, thereby giving the island a new name. With the monkeys practically in, sole possession of the island, they may be studied in their native habitat. Several of the signifi cant observations Dr. Carpenter has made on their. social behav iour - follow: 1. The nationalistic behaviour of human beings, who tend to settle on a piece of land and will thereafter defend . it with their lives, is reflected . in the natural behavior of monkeys.
