The worlds highest peak lies in
Tibet north OF The British Indian
border. yet. so far as known no Euro
peans with the exception OF the Bury
party have ever approached nearer
than Go miles TO It's base and few
travellers have even seen It's upper
slopes.
The attempts which have been
made to ascend some of Mt. Ever.
es,'s sister peaks Of the Hlmalayas
have usually been made through
Hepal because access to them
through Tibet was not then open.
The approach to Mt. Everes, through
Tibet Is said to be more accessible
and presents greater prospects OF
success than from the Nepai side.

the Tibetan route. II was Sir Fran

As u matter OF cold fact both
sides entered into the controversy

Investigation shows that the work.

that employers. too. have problems

di'ions that will warrant further
negotiations and further arjust-
ments. Actually as conditions stand

stated. there has been a compro-
mise. through increased wages 10

cry fair-minded Individual or or

The Industrial situation here to-
cay Is on all fours with the situa-
lion at Weed. The Weed work
ers went out at the same time the
klamath workers did. but the
Weed workers returned sooner and
called off the strike.
As a result Weed has not been
