Tibetun Trade Mission Arrives
ToSeN Yak Tails to Americans

A fve-man trade mission from
Tibet, the first ever to come to the
United States from that land, ar
rived in Washington today to offer
Americans such Tibetan products as
yak tails.
The group is here to build up
Tibetan- United States trade in wool,
skins and musk, as we'll as yak tails,
in exchange for American agricul-
tural machinery and gold and silver
bullion needed to back the Tibetan
currency.
Wool is the most important of the
Tibetan exports, but an interview at
the Washington Hotel today with
the trade mission members, only one
of whom speaks English, indicated
that yak tails are certainly the most
interesting of Tibet's exports.
Use for Tails Uncertain.
The yak is a Tibetan beast of
burden with or foot long fluffy
tail. The trade mission members
were not exactly. certain as to what
use the tails could be put in this
country: but they said a number
already are being shipped here.
Tsepon Shakabpa, 4l-year old
head of the mission. whose high
cheek bones and thick black hair
give him an appearance strikingly
similar to that of an American In
dian, said through his interpreter
I'VE want to find out what the
tails are now used for. In India
and China they are used for false
boards and wigs"
Mr.. Shakabpa brushed aside re-
ports printed in San Francisco news
papers when the group passed
through there 10 days ago that the
tails are used chiefly for Santa
Claus boards in this country. He
said he just didn't know.
Claim Independence.
Tibet has around $4,000 of the yak
tails available for export to this
country if market can be found.
In addition, about 100000 pounds
of wool are available for export

time draft.
Mr.. Wallace spoke at a picnic |
rally, during which he engaged in a !

regimentation in this country which
we have called fascism in other
countries" Mr.. Wallace said
Passage of the draft made it
clear that the two old parties, con-
trolled by militarists and monopo-
lists, prepare for war. And in a
wartime economy, young men and
women become expendable draft

THE challenge in Berlin requires

Each side is being driven on to

Neither side desires war; yet, as
