Dalai Lama
Back in Exile

NEW DELHI, India, Sept. Is
AP).-The Dalai Lama went
back to his exile home in North
India last night after a partly
successful 15-day plunge into
international politics.
The Tibetan cooking came
to New Delhi seeking a sponsor
for United Nations considera-
ton of Communist Chinese OPP

the Philippines said it would
co-sponsor the appeal to the
82-nation Assembly session
opening in New York today if
some other nation would CO.
operate in putting the issue
before the General Assembly.
AS yet no other sponsor has
come forth.
The Tibetan leader could not
bring it up himself since Tibet
is not a U. N. member. But he
did appeal to the U. N. in a
telegram last week.
The Dalai Lama won admi-
ration among New Delhi politi-
cal observers for his dignified,
yet forceful. conduct in the
face of strong pressures.
Prime Minister Nehru pub
licly advised the Dalai Lama
not to try to carry the case to
the U. N.
Mr.. Nehru argued that con-
sideration there could not i'm
prove conditions for Tibetans
and might only worsen the Sit
uatlon by plunging it more
directly into cold war.
But the 24-year-old Tibetan
leader stood up to the elder
statesman. He told a public
meeting it was his duty to do
everything possible to call at
tention to the plight of the
people who, he said, the Chinese
are trying to exterminate.
The Dalai Lama is sending
his elder brother, Gyalo Thond-
up, to New York to advise dele
cations during any Tibetan
debate.

War Claims

c AT r 0. Feb. % (AP) -
Britain and Egypt tonight
signed a long delayed agree
ment settling the financial
claims arising out Of the 1856
Suez invasion.
The agreement had been in
itialed January II, but last
minute bitches developed over
the value Of some former Brit
ish properties and the problem
of diplomatic immunities for q
British mission to administer
the agreement in Cairo.
Egypt broke of diplomatic
relations with Britain after the
Suez war, but the agreement
has been seen as the first step
to restoring them.
F. j. Enrol, economic secre-
tary to the British treasury,
and Abdel Monem Kaissuny,
the United Arab Republic's
economy minister, signed the
agreement before newsmen and
photographers.
Details Of the agreement will
not be made public until Mon
day. But the British interests
seized in Egypt after the 1856

What is going to happen
now?

with East Germany.
This would put all road. rail

allies in Berlin in the hands of
the East Germans. Even if a

At the moment. however, the
best informed officials discount
talk Of any large scale mo-
bilization.
Concern with military moves
increased inside the adminis-
tration-as well as in Con-
gress-after Soviet Premier
Khrushchev last Tuesday as
sailed Western proposals for
negotiation on Germany and
Berlin issues. His attack was
delivered in such a way as to
emparrass and rebuff the Wis
iting British Prime Minister
Macmillan.
Rebuffed by Khrushchev
Mr.. Macmillan. Unite d
States officials said, went to
Moscow primarily because of
British pressures that some
thing be done to avert q dan
gerous showdown. He acted at
a time when the Western
powers had begun to indicate
possible concessions to the So
VETS. But what he met in Mos
COW was an "all or nothing"
demand from Mr.. Khrushchev.
AS q result, American au-
thorities are now more strongly
convinced than ever that Mr..
Khrushchev will push close to

war before he shows any will
ingness to come to terms on
the Berlin issue.

1t may come next week when

goes far beyond any formal
arrangements.
The meetings between the
two heads Of state are now be-
coming almost routine but they
are by no means ceremonial.
They have served to coordinate
policy in France and Germany
on vitality important questions.
At their first meeting on
September IA at Colombey Les
Deux Eglises the two leaders
declared significantly I'VE are
convinced that close co-opera-
ton between the German Fed
eral Republic and the French
Republic is the basis of all con-
structive work in Europe" And
while extending a cordial invi-
tation to other European states
to join the partnership. they
wasted no time in putting it in
immediate effect.
Agreed on Reply
Two months later, Gen. de-
Gaulle and Mr.. Adenauer met
again at Bad Kreuznach in
Germany and there reached an
agreement on their response to
Premier KhruShchev's first
threat to Berlin, delivered in a
speech on November 10. At the
same meeting the decision was
pade to push ahead with a plan
to form a six-nation European
common market despite British
objections.
The present meeting has been
scheduled for some time to deal
with the continuing question of
the relations between the COM
mon market and non-member
nations and with new problems
confronting the six-nation COM
munity as result of an over
production Of coal. But over
shadowing these housekeeping
considerations is the new and
obvious need for the two
European leaders to reach COM
mon decisions on what must be
done in the face of the deepen
ing crisis over Berlin now that
Mr. Khrushchev has apparently
rejected western offers to ne
gotiate.
The questions are by no
means unrelated. One of the
major preoccupations Of Mr..
Adenauer over Berlin and pos
sible negotiations with Russia
is precisely his developing ties
with France and other coun-
tries of western Europe. In the
previous meetings he has sue
ceeded in persuading Gen. de-
Gaulle that these ties should
by no means be considered as
negotiable-in short, that Ger
many should not be forced into
a position of neutrality as a
price for reunification.
This argument-which nat
urally is less persuasive to
some other members of the
Western alliance-accounts in
large part for the relative
toughness of the Franco-Ger-
man position on Berlin and on
the question of East West ne
gotiations. 1t has certainly a
good deal more to do with
hard-headed economic and
political considerations than 1t
has with the fact that Gen.
deGaulle is a soldier or that
Mr.. Adenauer is a stubborn
old man.
New Factors in Unity
In any event, this attitude
all along has been opposed to
Cancellation and to precipitous
negotiation, and it is expected
to be reinforced by recent
developments. The uncompro-
missing attitude Of the Rus.

ments also want peace. But
governments must avoid action
which might lead to dangerous
situations.
Governments might dc
something in error which might
effect others. We must pray
for peace. hope for peace and
work for peace"
The Prime Minister said he
believed governments should be
able to avoid those dangers and
find a final solution to inter-
national disputes.
