Scientific and Geological Research with Military Escort London, Oct. 3.
In order to increase its influence in Central Asia the Soviet Government is preparing an expedition to Tibet, according to the "Daily Telegraph," with the avowed object of scientific and geography ical research, but as the expedition will include several military topographers and graduates of the Moscow Propaganda College, the journal adds, some doubts on the matter are justi-fable.
M. Kosloff, who has maintained good personal relations with the Dalai Lama's Court, will lead the expedition, which will be escorted by Siberian Cossacks and Kalmuks.—Reuter.
