TIIE ROOF OF TIIE EARTH
Soviet China announces tly in
v,i:;,on of the theocracy of Tibet,
an isolated country, sparsely set
tled and devoted to the Lamaist 'c
form of Buddhism. Only Tibet and
the Vatican City are owned by
religions; Tibet by Buddhism, at
(ho head oi which is the Dalai
Lama, the Vatican by the Roman
Catholic Church, al the head of
which is the bishop of Rome, the
Pope.
The possession of Tibet by the
cominform. through Soviet Russia
or Soviet China, which are identi
cal, would give to this Imperialist
lower a tremendous leverage in
Buddhistic countries, which in
clude all the nations of the Indo
Chinese world. Already Soviet
Russia holds Mongolia and China,
two very important Buddhistic
areas.
■ Tibet is tie highest country In
the wo: Id, ranging from 12,000 to
24,000 feet toward Hie clouds. Its J
height has in the past given it I
protection against predatory coun- j
tries, althoui h it has been invaded |
and conquered. It is surrounded by i
China and Turkestan, by Kashmir1
and Ladak, by India. Nepal and j
Bhutan. Its capital is the Holy,
Citv of Lhasa.
The Tibetans call their country
Bod; Tibet is a Europeanized cor
ruption of the word which mean ■
high Eod. It is a cold, hard land,
difficult for human life. Out of it

(low the great rivers of Asia in
torrents down the mountain passes.
The people of Tibet are Of Mon
golian origin, with racial ndmix
1 tures as the borders are reached.
[ Their spoken language is dose to
the Burmese; their written lang
j uage is derived from Sanskrit.
: Their literature is wholly religious.
Tibet is probably the only coun
j try where Polyandry is practiced;
lhat is. a woman marries a family
; of brethers. The religion is prim
| ilive, Monastic Buddhism, called
Lama ism, tire monks living in vast
i monasteries in poverty and chas
l tity. The government of the coun
| try is completely in the hands of
I the Lamas, among whom the great
I cst is the Dalai Lama, the eccles
iastical head, residing in Lhasa;
the Panchen Tashi Lama is second
in influence and often first in
power. He sometimes comes out
into the world and engages in
politics.
The Dalai Lama is chosen by
metempsychosis. According to this
Buddhistic doctrine, life is eternal;
there is no death. The life of a
being is in many forms through
interminable ages. The soul of a
man may move, upon his death,
into the body of a higher or a
lower being, depending upon his
goodness.
This perhaps is as correct r.
statement of Buddhistic natural law
iKarma) as any other:
“According to the seed that’s
sown,
So is the fruit ye reap therefrom. I
Doer of good will gather good, j
Doer oi evil evil reaps.
Sown is the seed, and thou shalt |
taste
The fruit thereof.”
So when tho Dami Lama dies, a!
quest is made for a male baby born I
at precisely that moment, for the ^
soul must find a body, whether of•
man or beast or bisect. Once the !
Hierarchy among the Lamas de
cides that this particular babe is
the one, he is taken to Lhasa, be
comes the Dalai Lama and for a)
good part of his life is, in effect,1
the prisoner of his guardians,
Tho possession of the Dalai Lama
is, therefore, of great importance
politically in the Buddhistic world.
Particularly among those Buddhists
who adhere to Lamaism. Buddhism
scr-cied itself in Tibet in the Eighth
Century as part of a social revolu
tion—there was to be no distinc
tion between rich and poor, hum
ble and great. However, at the end
oi each great reform, the I'lch
were rich and the poor were poor,
which surprised the Tibetan sages.
Tibet was conquered by the Mon
gols under Kublai Khan, and thus
China became the Suzerain over
Tibet, an authority now claimed by
Soviet China. The Ming rulers of
China found it more satisfactory to
deal with the Tibetan ecclesiastic;
than with laymen and thus tho
utho.ity of the Lamas was con
firmed by the great power of China
In the 20th Century, Tibet cairn
| within yie sphere of influence o;
British India, which controlled tht
! best paths toward Lhasa. Thi
situation was complicated by ru.s
sian intrigue, the Russians, as fai
I back as 1880, seeking a sphere o:
. influence in that country, incident
I ally indicating to Lhasa that th<
t Czar and his family might be con
verted to Buddhism!
As Russian imperialism expand;
into Tibet, the peculiar nature ol
the country and Buddhism in it
Lamaistic form must be describee
and grasped.
ARTS, (RAFTS MAN BACK,
TWO MONTHS TRIP TO
NATIVE (OAST STORES
Max Penrod, assistant manager of
the Alaska Native Arts and Crafts
clearing house, returned Saturday
from a two months trip contacting
store managers in native villages
along the coast from Point Barrow
to Kodiak Island. He reports that
the trend is from the novel items
that sold immediately after WolVd
War II to the more utilitarian
items made of ivory.
Because of the Korean situation,
the pieces carved by the King Is
land and Diomede Islanders from
fossilized walrus ivory are practi
cally nonexistent. The islanders
are not able to go to the Siberian
coast to trade for the ivory and
now are using baleen (whale bone)
mastadon tusks and new walrus
ivery exclusively.
At Point Barrow, Penrod board
ed the North S'tar, Alaska Native
Service supply ship. He left the
North Star at Seward and spent a
week contacting the store managers
at Anchorage, Palmer and Seward.
The supply ship loaded a cargo
cf Reindeer meat at Mekoryuk on
Nunivak Island for distribution to
the ANS schools at White Mount
ain, Wrangell and Mt. Edgecumbe.
The King Islanders who had work
ed at Nome longshoring this past
summer were taken back to King
Island.

VEHICLE CENSUS FOR
TERR. CIVIL DEFENSE
PLAN IS UNDER WAY
A complete census of all vehicles
I —rail, raod, air and water—with
the repair facilities to serve them,
is being made by Col. J. P. John
! ion, deputy director in charge of
I the transportation and evacuation
i division of Alaska's civil defense
organization.
Falling under this division is
the job of obtaining and providing
adequqate transportation, supplies,
i and equipment where local facilit
j ,es or supplies are inadequate. The
I transportation division can not
! function until the local organtea
| tiens have been set up, inventories !
j taken and numbers and classifica- i
: tions of vehicles are made. I
Progress of the localities in their ;
work will determine the rate ol
expansion of the transportation di- i
vision. But in the beginning, the
territorial-wide task is an adminis
trative one. As the program pro- |
gresses, however, more coordination I
of local efforts will be necessary
and more guidance and assistance
needed.
Working arrangements with the i
highway department are to be
j set up and emergency road repair j
I planned. Plans are to be agreed
j upon with the police services divis
I ion for use and control of high
ways (coordinated with the mili- j
taryi and will anticipate evacuation j
of two or more localities in the ,
same general area.
At the outbreak of an emergency, i
intensification of efforts are to be j
made to complete any unfinished !
plans. It may be necessary because j
of the military situation to change |
and revise plans already made, j
In the event of war-caused dis- j
aster, transportation will be need
ed for:
1. Movement of special civil
defense teams and equipment.
2. Movement of police.
3. Movement of rescue teams and i
equipment.
4. Messenger service. . j
5. Movement cf medical and
health teams.
6. Transport of rescued persons.
7. Transport of the seriously ;
injured and hospital patients.
8. Transport of evacuees.
9. Movement of food and emer- |
gency supplies, including water, j
10. Movement of emergency labor
parties.
11. Movement of persons or pro- j
perty under mutual-aid arrange- j
ments.
12. Movement of engineering and
utility crews.
13. Emergency mobile transport j
reserve.
14. Such other special services as j
transportation may be called upon j
to perform in civil defense.
