Chinese Red Troops Set Up Check Point in Himalaya Calcutta, India U.R) Chi nese Communist troops in Tibet have been deployed to set up check posts along Bhutan's north ern frontier,. the newspaper Statesman's special correspond ent in Kalimpong reports. The report said the troops were sent from Gyantse, third largest Tibetan town, where Chi nese troops arrived recently. Bhutan is an independent Himalayan state comprising 18, 000 square miles and lies on In dia's extreme northeastern fron tier border. It has a population of some 300,000. Bhutan is an Indian protector ate and is guided in its foreign relations by the Indian govern ment under a treaty of friend ship between the two countries in 1949. In ancient times, the records show, China exchanged presents with Bhutan but did not try to take over. The first known and recorded instance of intercourse between Bhutan and India goes back to 1774 when Warren Hastings, then governor general of India, sent a "John Company" (East India Company) officer on a good-will expedition to the court of the re gent of Tibet via Bhutan. Cordial relations between Bhutan and British India were established at that time. . In 1866 the British made a treaty of friendship with Bhutan. In 1910 the treaty was amended to include a provision that Bhu tan's foreign relations should be controlled by the British Indian government. The Bhutanese are a sturdy mountain people with Tibetan af finities. They share the religion and culture of Tibet and look to the Dalai Lama as their spiritual head. Bhutan is politically in dependent of Tibet. The ruler is the hereditary Maharaja of Bhu tan, His Highness Sir Jigme Wan chuk. The only security measures ob served by the Bhutanese govern ment is the posting of Bhutanese "policemen" to guard all import ant passes and roads leading to Wednesday, March 3. 1952 and from Tibet Because Bhutan's defense, like its external affairs, is managed by India, it is left to be seen what military precautions, if any. Indian military authorities will adopt with the shadows of Red China's armed might clearly out lined on the country's northeast ern frontier. Rotations Name Tuffe As New Club President Shelby M.
