Text Appearing After Image:
THE GEOGRAPHIC BASIS OF HUMAN CHARACTER 107 lute or unsuccessful whites live in the worst towns, like Salamancaand Antabamba. A larger valley with a slightly milder climateand more accessible situation, like Chuquibamba, will draw a stillbetter grade of white citizen and in the largest of all—Cuzco andthe Titicaca basin—we find normal whites in larger numbers,though they nowhere live in such high ratios to the Indian as onthe coast and in the lower valleys near the coast. With few ex-ceptions the white population of Peru is distributed in responseto favorable combinations of climate, soil, accessibility, and gen-eral opportunities to secure a living without extreme sacrifice. These facts are stated in a simple way, for I wish to emphasizethe statement that the Indian population responds to quite otherstimuli. Most of the luxuries and comforts of the whites meannothing to the Indian. The machine-made woolens of the im-porters will probably never displace his homespun llama-woolclot
