THE DELUXE SET OF THE MAJESTIC LINE CHINESE Communists, even with the backing of Soviet Russia, will have their hands full in trying to occupy Tibet and impose a Communist government upon the Tibetans. Genghis Khan invaded the country and formally annexed it to China, but the Tibetans have Iked an isolated and self-contained life for centuries, shut in from the outside world by the circle of high mountains. There is everything within that circle to sustain the life of the inhabitants, which is largely primitive. There are two great rivers and extensive chains of fresh and salt water lakes. The inhabitants of the vast barren stretches of central and northern Tibet are nomadic, and those of the fertile southern agricultural valleys are settled in towns and villages, the most important of which is Lhasa, the seat of the Dalai Lama. The latest hews is that India has sent a note to Peiping expressing surprise and regret at the invasion, but the Reds claim that the "liberation" of Tibet is "an internal matter," and declare they will not tolerate any outside interference. It is one thing, however, to take the country by force and another to transform the Tibetans into loyal Communists by the same method. The Chinese Reds no doubt realize this, and they are not so much concerned with converting the people to Communism as they are with what they term the "consolidation of China's own borders for security reasons." Which, in other words, means the securing of a fortress jumping-off place for an invasion of India from the north, while Russia moves in from the west. Mr- Nehru may now regret that he was so insistent upon the British pulling out of India. new fast DRY Yeast Now you have Fleischmann's Fast Dry Yeast, forget about the oldtime hazards of yeast baking!

Some have been chores assigments to write about. Many I have bought, with my own nurd cash. Others have been gifts, often from readers whom I have never seen. But the postman never brought a more welcome surprise than three brand new volumes, each containing fifty full color reproductions. They cover the works of Van Gogh, El Greco, and Renoir, respectively. ' oOo I IT IS NOT POLITE to look for a price tag on a gift. But I can't help passing on the information hat these volumes sell for $10 each. I can't imagine anything that would make a lovelier, more beautiful Christmas gift.

It was regrettable, indeed that, due to certain restrictive laws who prohibit our Native friends from joining with us in licensed prem- j ises. we were unable to extend a i similar invitation to Mr. McKay I an dthe members of his Band. We considered it only right and fitting, therefore, in order to ! eliminate as far as possible this obvious gesture of discrimination which policy the Canadian Le- gion wholeheartedly deplores to invite Mr. McKay to the banquet held after the Armistice recep tion as a measure of appreciation of his Band's participation In the Armistnce program. Certainly there was no intent to slight Mr. Lien personally, or the members of the Shrine Club Band, whom we hold in the highest regard. and whom we are proud to have financially assisted in its early formation and prior to its present sponsorship. Rather it was our desire to extend as far as possible to Mr. McKay, courtesies commensurate with those offered cur local band. Fut.hermore, we are confident that Mr. Lien did not interpret our actions In the light that was indicated by Mr. Faure's uninformed comments. In view of these circumstances, we have considered it necessary to reply publicly to these uncal-j led for remarks in order that the public may be correctly Informed as to our course of action In this regard. May we suggest to Mr. Faure, also, that he confine his criticisms to matters with which he is comparatively familiar, rather than to maliciously mislead, intentionally or otherwise, the public of this City.

Rupert, who returned to the city at the week-end, states that September and October were, good months in the southern city.

He does not believe that it is "a far fetched theory" that the U.S.A policy more or less invited the attack from the North.

PHONE 071 we uiuiK. n snouiu maae ciear tnai me cienciencies which have been felt in the district for so long ara not due entirely to local circumstance. In fact a very small part of the blame for lack of a comprehensive rdad program in the Skeena can be placed on works officials of the district. The head office for the department at Victoria holds the solution to the uture of roads in Skeena and the Central" Literior. Requests and pleas for some definite program in conjunction with that set out by the Hart government to provide the province with a first class highway system have been to no avail, and Mr. Carson has been adamant in his dictatorial policy of providing Vancouver Island and the southern interior with good roads while doing nothing for the Central Interior. ; Taxpayers and organizations in Smithers community have sent brief after brief to Victoria regarding the lack of a highway policy, not only for this area, but for the entire district from Prince George through to Prince Rupert. Apparently they all ended up in the waste basket. . We wonder if the change of officials might possibly mean a changed attitude at Victoria? It would be welcome, especially if the district were to receive the machinery necessary for an adequate road maintenance job. 1x4 us hope the department will at least rectify the ridiculous situation that existed this year, when public works crews had to load gravel trucks by hand to patch up a road because the head office refused to OK the purchase of a new shovel to replace a 25-year-old relic. We asked for a new deal in public works for this district. We have bad the shuffle, it's up to Mr. Carson now for the new deal. Interior News.
