(CP Photo) Tibetan Dalai Lama Leads Forgotten Life NEW DELHI (Reuters)--The Tibetan Dalai Lama is leading a lonely, almost forgotten life in an obscure village high in the Himalaya Mountains nearly five years after he fled from the Chinese Communist inva- sion of his country. With him are most members of his cabinet, many of them in their 60s or 70s, but still hoping! for a political miracle which| will enable them to return to Tibet. Scattered all over India, Ne- pal, Sikkim and Bhutan are an! estimated 70,000, Tibetan refu-| gees who escaped with the! Dalai Lama in the spring of| 1959. They, too, dream of the day when they can go back to their homes on the windswept Tibetan plateau. The Dalai Lama, now 28, de- votes most of his time to the welfare and résettlement these loyal followers who pre- ferred life in exile with him to living under Chinese rule. SURE OF RETURN While the young Tibetan ruler is practical enough not to raise the Tibetans' hopes of an early 'liberation of their land, he does seize every opportunity to stress his undying faith in the ultimate success of his efforts to regain his lost land. The modern bungalow, called Heavenly Abode, set against the picturesque backdrop of peaks, where the Dalai Lama now lives is a far cry from his 'eri potala palace in Lhasa. The.Dalai Lama's entourage is housed in and around the bungalow in a_ self-contained settlement of about 20 houses. ' The lama has drawn up a comprehensive plan of reforms : to be introduced inside Tibet on his return home. At the same time, the pres- ence of the Dalai Lama has raised many problems for 'the Indian government. While New Delhi sympathies of} are with th- Dalai Lama ant his request for asylum was! readily' granted, he nd_his| cabinet have not been given the| status of an "emigre" govern- ment. Despite India's border dispute with-China, authorities have not permitted the Dalai Lama to campaign actively aginst the Chinese occuption of Tibet be- ure, mostly in gold, has been estimated to be worth between $5,000,000 and $8,000,000. Part of this treasure has since been converted into cash for investments in business enter- prises in India, long-term bonds and to meet some of the cost of refugee resettlement projects for Tibetans.

The men work in two shifts, NATO Unity In Danger -- Adenauer HANNOVER (AP) -- Konrad Adenauer, former West German chancellor, sounded a warning Sunday for the North Atlantic alliance to settle its differences or perhaps see some members pull out. In a keynote speech to the convention of his Christian Democratic party, Adenauer made no specific mention of the} differences between the United States and France on Western policy but these differences have been the most outstand- ing in recent years within the alliance. Adenauer spoke proudly of his} agreement with President de Gaulle on a French-West Ger- man friendship pact and said he could not understand why it should be considered a treaty directed against the United States. ; He said he had told State Sec- retary Dean Rusk in advance of} his intention to negotiate a close relationship with France and that Rusk at that time wel- comed it. As for the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, Adenauer said: "It-is high time for all mem- bers of the alliarice to set them- selves earnestly to removing their differences of opinion.' He noted that beginning in 1969, any member can withdraw from NATO with one year's no- tice, "So members of the alliance must get together at the latest by the end of 1967 on the ur- gently necessary changes in the treaty,"" Adenauer said. Adenauer, at 88, is due to be elected to another two-year term as party chairman. Erhard will be the party's, candidate to suc: ceed himself as chancellor in next year's general election. 14RCAF Men Look For Space Flotsam hooting 300 to 400 feet of film.
