By the Associated Press. MEXICO, August 4.—After living for months among the Nomad Huichole Indians, in the state of Nayarit, Por- | firlo Aguirre, of the archeological sec-i tion of the National Museum, has re- | turned to civilization with an interest- ing account of the strange customs observed among these sun-worshipping, polygamist wanderers. For centuries the Huicholes have of Nayarit, constantly moving about in search of escape from death, which they fear more than do any other tribe of people in Mexico. When one of their number dies, they abandon their crops and flee to sorae | other place, thinking thus to evade a | Aguirre, who found the Huicholes a triendly, hospitable people, said that while they worship some of the Chris- tian saints, they look to the sun as their god and pray to it.

There are times, Aguirre said, when a husband wishes to dispose of one of his wives. In such cases, he talks to her kindly, explaining that he no longer wishes' her in his entourage, then goes out to find a new home for her. When he finds another brave who is willing to add her to his household, he offers her in trade, accepting usual- ly a horse, an ox or a burro, accord- ing to thé value he attaches to her. The Huicholes live in caves and are a happy people, apart from their fear of death.
