by The Assoeiosed Press

STRASBOURG, France, Nov
S2.-Despite German Socialist op-
position, members of the Eu-
ropean Consultative Asse mbly
drafted new demands today for q
West European army with Ger
man units.
The Assembly's General Affairs
Committee adopted a resolution
calling for such a security force
to back up the Atlantic pact but
refused to write in guarantees
that Germany would have COM
plete equality In forming the pro-
3ected army.
German Socialist Karl Mommer
made two unsuccessful attempts
to amend the resolution to pro-
vide such equality and finally cast
the lone vote against it. The tally
was 18 to /, with two abstentions.
The resolution now goes to the
full assembly for debate and &C
ton.
Mr.. Mommer also insisted on
basing European defense on the
Elbe River instead of the Rhine.
The committee recognized this
with q statement that territory
which includes Western Germany

likely that other radioactive de-
posits have been discovered by
different survey parties. Careful
investigation has established that
this same area could be made to
yield profitable quantities of other
strategic minearls, including gold,
lead and wolfram.
Second Survey Party.
A second survey party took over
in the middle Of May. It consist
ed of two Russians of Mongoloid
features. who were joined by the
same Tibetan radio operator and
guide. In their equipment was an
advanced surveying instrument
described as photo-theodolite
that automatically recorded to-
Biography on film. This party
surveyed the two lakes and ad-
jacent fiat areas gathering full
data on meteorological conditions,
food resources and so on.
It Is considered virtually Ger
tain that at least a dozen other
groups have been carrying on
similar and related work over the
whole vast area of this strategic
country. Both Russian expedi-
tions described here apparently
arrived in Western Tibet by planes
that landed them and their equip
ment on the lake.
This has been a bare outline of
the information available on them

Written Into UNIT Bill
BY the Asseciofed Press

DES MONIES, Nov. 22.-If
congress enacts universal military
training Of boys beginning at age
II it should prohibit sale of beer
to trainees, says the newly
formed National Temperance
League.
A resolution urging such re-
strictions was passed as the league
ended its first convention here.
One resolution described the
modern beer tavern as "in many
instances worse than the saloon
which it displaced" Another urged
Congress to prevent use of radio
and television as mediums for
alcoholic beverage advertising.
DR.. Robert G. Lee of Memphis,
Tenn, president of the Southern
Baptist Convention, was elected
as president of the new league.
The league was formed by a

Restriction on Cobalt
To Cut Manufacture
OF Radio, Te|evision
BY the Assoeioted Press

A drop of Is to 40 per cent
In the current output rate of tele-
vision and radio sets after New
Years was foreseen by industry
leaders last night as the National
Production Authority reduced
civilian deliveries of cobalt by 70
per cent.
Sales of cobalt. a steel-harden-
ing agent important in making
magnetized parts Of radio and TV
sets, were frozen temporarily last
week because of very high" de-
fense demands. They were re-
sumed yesterday. but at only 80
per cent of the volume during the
first half of this year.
Industry Says It's Hard Hit.
This limitation, together with
the IS per cent cut in civilian use
of aluminium effective January /,
and pending curbs on copper,
nickel and zinc. will hit the boom
ing television and radio industries
hard, the trade said.
"The industry faces dwindling
production in the first quarter of
1951-and after that it will grow
worse" said a spokesman for the
Radio-TeleyiSion Manufacturers
s. Representatives of the associa-
ton met Monday with NPA Ad-
William H. Harrison to
consult on the problem caused
by heavy defense stockpiling and
military buying of radar and elec-
tronics equipment.
Substitution Possible.
Cobalt Is imported from Africa.
Other materials could be SUBJ
stituted In radio and television
sets, but the magnets would be of
an older type, and bulkier. This
would have meant a temporary
halt in production for the rede-
signing of sets and retooling of
production lines.
In another defense production
action, Co-ordinator w. Stuart
Symington announced that the
Government is ready to start
making direct loans to industry
for defense expansion under the
$500 million program authorized
by the Defense Production Act.

cost, would have convenient land
routes. Some of the passes can
be negotiated by vehicles even
now. ~.
The Russian survey parties dis
covered at least one important
source Of radioactive metal in
Tibet. Using advanced scientific
instruments, they took note of the
extensive Tibetan mineral deposits
and immense acreages for agri-
cultural development, plus ready
sources Of hydro electric power
that cna be developed quite simply.
Informants from the region In
question are certain that large
bodies Of men could make them
selves self-sufficient with the re-
sources Of the countryside. Con-
trary to the popular conception
that the Himalayan tableland is
an inhospitable waste swept by
icy winds. these travellers found
that the area marked for Soviet
exploitation is an earthly paradise
and even bath water is naturally
supplied by hot springs.
Military operations from the
lake base would be directed by a
Soviet headquarters In Khotan In
Russian Turkestan-using Mongol
troops. The initial activity will be
ostensibly project Of the Com
munist Chinese government whose
forces are now advancing through
Tibet.
It is now known that Soviet
study Of this strategic Western
Tibet area goes back at least three
years. It is certain In light Of
this and other evidence that when
Chinese Communist troops consol-
idate Tibet under the Peiping re-
gime. the next step beyond this
in Moscow's broad plan for extern
sion of world communism into
South Asia from the key lake base
will already be well advanced.
The present invasion of Tibet is
part Of a strategic program that
Moscow agents were furthering in
Tibet itself already in 1947. In
doctrination of the Tibetan people
in Communist doctrines was clev-
erly and thoroughly done in prep
aration for the military denoue-
ment now being witnessed. Sig
nif1cant in this connection are re-
ports Of occasional seaplane land
ings on Lake Manasarowar. These
apparently were Russian aircraft.
Two are said to have been there
within the last three weeks.
Natural Landing Strip.
Quick deposit Of personnel and
supplies at the lake base by plane
is an obvious and feasible develop
ment. according to information on
hand here. Around the site of
the base is a natural landing strip
miles in extent, where land planes
can come down without the neces-
sity Of first clearing the ground.
No heavy ground-moving ma
chinery is needed for the airbase
project, but only simple equipment
Is required for nearby hydroelec-

Arab States BIockinq
Israel Peace Efforts,
Abba Eban Asserts
By the Assoeiafed Press

Ambassador Abba Eban of Israel
said yesterday the Arab states
have isolated themselves instead
of Israel by refusing to recognize
his country's existence and SOW
ereign rights.
He told a National Press Club
luncheon his country Is anxious
to negotiate a final settlement on
all outstanding questions, but that
the Arab states have blocked all
efforts.
The Ambassador said Israels
foreign policy has now grown to
active maturity" and his country
hopes to secure normal relation
ship between Israel and the Arab
states based on mutual tolerance
and cooperation"
Both, he said, are "heirs Of an
cient traditions which have con-
tributed immeasurably to the de-
velopment Of human civilization, !"
viii Fight II Threatened.
But. he added. if Israel's demo-
cratic institutions are threatened,
it will fight to preserve them If
necessary. whether against in
vasion from without or subversion
from within"
He listed the refugee problem
as among those needing imme-
diate solution, but said Arab states
refuse to cooperate.
"All the peoples of the Near
East IN their daily lives are the
victims Of this refusal, which re-
atcs with special cruelty and cal
lousness on the fate of Arab refu-
gees" he said.
Although the Palestine Con-
ciliation Commission has recon-
mended that a settlement Of this
problem be given priority. the
Arab states refuse to act.
Charges Violations.
"Since the Arab states main
tain their refusal to conclude q
peace settlement with Israel In
extension of the armistice agree
ments, we shall continue to take
our stand on the precise observ-
ance of these agreements.
"The armistice system itself re-
quires constant and vigilant at
tention. Two major violations OF
the armistice agreements still re-
main to be corrected.
These are. first, the blockade
restrictions imposed by the Egyp-
tian government on vessels seeking
to pass through the Suez Canal
toward Israel ports. And second
the persistent refusal of the Jor-
dan government to implement Ar
ticle VIII of the armistice agree
ment. This latter refusal impedes
normal access to Jewish holy
places and involves the paralysis
of the highest and most benef-
icent institutions of learning and
health in Israel"
