COMMENT OF THE DAY.

The Curtain Falls In Tibet

ANOTHER bastion has been, taken

an

or

by Communism; another vacuum filled by Communist expansionism. There is no reason to doubt the an-

from Peking that nouncement agreement has been reached with Tibet whereby the "Roof of the World" becomes a "liberated" province of Red China. This has been foreshadowed for months. Once the Chinese armies be- gan moving on Lhasa last October it was clear that their chief enemies were terrain and weather, not the Tibetans. These mountain people are brave and hardy, but they are not trained equipped for a modern fight and their theocratic, primitive Government was not the sort to inspire the type of mass patriotism that alone could have furnished the force to stop the Chinese. The only other hope was a determined opposition from India. In earlier days Tibet was nursed As a buffer state between India and Russin and China. However, Prime Minister Nehru and his Government did not look upon Chinese Communism with fear and dislike. Mr Nehru made it clear that he would insist on maintenance of the so-called McMahon line, fixing In- dla's northeast boundary with Tibet on the 'mountain crests. Red Chinese maps had been showing the frontier at the foothills of the mountains on the

Indian side. Otherwise, except for some mild protests, New Delhi has sat back apathetically. The result had to be what it is today-Tibet behind the Iron Curtain. This is a defeat for the West, although a minor one. Its chief danger is that it brings the Commu- nists right down on India's border. The Russians have been planning air- fields in Tibet and can now go through with their plans in tranquillity. Tibet cannot provide a major base against India because of the lack of gasoline, which would have to be flown into the fields the way high octane gas was ' flown "over the Hump" from Assam into China during the Second World War. Road transport difficulties would also make Tibet a poor base for a land invasion of Indin. All this is true, but it is equally true that Russia and China can now use Tibet as a base for reconnaissance, espionage and subver- sion against India, Kashmir and Nepal. The mere fact that the Communist wave has at last swopt up to India is a psychological factor of considerable im- portance. Another buffer has disap- peared, and when one thinks of the danger on the other side to Iran-his- torically a buffer state linking India and the West-there is cause for an- xlety over what has happened to Tibet.

Allies Canvassed For

Cease-Fire Ideas

Washington, June 5.

The Assistant Secretary of State, Mr Dean Rusk, on Tuesday invited representatives of 15 other fighting allies in Korea to submit any ideas they might have for a United Nations declaration which could form the basis for a cease-fire on the peninsula.

Mr Rusk also asked them to let him know immediately of any "intimation" they might receive that the Chinese Reds were willing to call a halt to the Korean fighting.
