the Chinese intend to press
ahead from the post. Military
observers believe that Daulet
Beg Oldi, just outside the Chi
nese claim line, may have been
seized only as a limited mill
tary objective.
For the same reason, the Chi
nese are possibly about to at
tack the key Indian airfield at
Chushul, near the southern end
Of the Ladakh line. Chushul,
under Chinese artillery bonn
bardment for the last few
days, seems to lie outside the
claim line on vague Chinese
maps, but it has the only fully
operational airfield in the
Smile high battle area of
Ladakh.
The field has been used for
air supply Of the Indian noun
tain garrisons. There have
been no reports of the use of
fighters or bombers by either
side so far in the border con-
flict.
The seizure of Daulet Beg
Oldi gave the Chinese control
of the Karakoram Pass leading
from China's Sinkiang Prov
ince into Ladakh. Control of
the 18,290-foot pass gives the
Chinese an additional route for
pouring troops into Ladakh, al
though the pass probably will
be snowbound soon.
Reds Still Building Up
At the other end of the
rugged Himalayan front, 1000
miles to the east, Communist
forces were reported still build
ing up around Towang, the
monastery town they captured
four days after the start of
their big offensive October 20.
The lull since the capture of
the town, both sides have been
adding reinforcements and the
Indian army has been prepar-
ing defense positions. Weapons
being supplied to India by the
United States and other West
ern countries are being rushed
to this northeast frontier area,
rather than Ladakh, because
the greatest threat is believed
to lie here.
Despite losses in Ladakh of
more than $500 square miles
in Is days, the Chinese there
are still separated from the
plains of northwest India by
two mountain ranges.
In the northeast, where they
have seized about 500 square
miles, they are within so air
miles of the thickly populated
Plains of Assam. A thrust into
the plains would enable Peiping
to press the Indian government
to give up the entire disputed
borderland in return for q
Chinese withdrawal from As
