seven of the world's ll longest rivers are located on the Asiatic continent. Asia has the world's highest mountain. too. Mount Everest soars more than 29,000 feet into the sky. The earth's lowest spot is also in Asia. The Dead Sea is 1.290 feet below sea level.
Many of Asia's mineral depos- its are located in out-of-the-way places. where it is hard to mine.
owsver, it does produce many minerals and raw materials which the world needs.-such as oil. tin. bauxite. manganese. and rubber.
Aslals high mountains divide lie continent into five main re- gions. Northern Asia is a frozen wasteland-too cold to be of much use to man. Most of North- ern Asia belongs to Russia.
Inner Asia including parts of Tibet, Mongolia. and Afanistan. h shut in by mountains and gets little rainfall. as a result. nearly all of the region is dry. desert lend.
Eastern Asia has small. fertile
lains among its many mountains.
here is enough rainfall and warm weather for farmers to grow good crops. Among the countries in this region are parts of China. Formosa. the Philippines, Japan and Korea.
Southern Asia. south of the Him- alaya Mountains. is the most fer- tile part of the Orient. in this area are great river: with val- leys where tea. spices, tobacco. rubber, coffee. sugar. cotton. and other crops are grown. Much of land is in southern India. Burma Thailand. Pakistan. and Indonesia.
Western Asia touches the Med- Itcrranean and the Red Seas. Here there are great plains and high plateaus. The region has some fertile areas with plenty of waler. but most of the land is dry. The area takes in parts of Iraq Arabia. and Iran.
As you can see. most of Asia is either too dry. too cold. or too mountainous for human beings. Two-thirds of the continent has almost no inhabitants at all. Asia's people live crowded together where the soil is fertile.
The peoples of Asia are of every race and colour. and many reli- gions and tongues. But the peo- ple of Asia are alike in one re- spect, - most of them are poor. The average Asian earns only 550 a year. and many get much less. g
Asia has many beautiful build- Inga but they were not put up for people to live in. Large numbers of Asians live in miserable homes.-mud huts, straw shelters, and tents. Most of the people go to bed hungry. Rice is their chief food and there is never enough to go around. Poor meals and lack of medical care cause Asians to die young. As a matter of fact. most people in Asia have never seen a doctor. In India and Indonesia. for example. the aver- age person can expect to live only

What do the people of Asia
ivant most? Food. of course. In addition. they are striving for better medical care. housing, clothing. and educational oppor- tunities. The masses of people are ready to turn to any system of government that will enable them to acquire these necessities of good living. Most of free Asia's leaders feel that such goals can be reached only through a pro- gram of industrial development and farm modernization. Trey feel that economic aid from the West would help them greatly in launching plans along this line.

Prime Min- ister of Ceylon. stated: "Com- munism docs not nourish on a full stomach. We want economic help in abundance. We want you to help us to develop our indus- tries. If the west can give us this aid, she can safely leave Asia the job of defending herself against communism."
A second major desire of these people is that they retain their X ” pendence. They do not in- tend to become conionles of the western nations and they will re- bel against any Program that might restore the colonial bonds they have thrown off. Unfortun- ately. a great many of them do not realize the extent to which communism would enslave them. but they do know the evils of col- onial bonds and are determined to avoid a return of western dom- inatlon at almost any cost.
Therefore any effective pro- gram that the West may under- take in Asia must be put forth on a basis of equality and mutual respect. Treated as subject peo- ples for many years, the majority of Asians are sensitive about their newly won sovereignty.
