Next day, at the opening of the fourth annual SEATO Council, a spatter of trouble briefly threatened to mar the shining anti-Communist surface of the eight-nation South East Asia Treaty Organization.* Pakistan's Mozaffar Ali Khan Qizil-bash briskly demanded more U.S. aid, implied that his country might turn to the Soviet Union if its demands were not met. He warned: "Distinction must be made between friends and those who sit on the fence. While the latter are the recipients of large-scale aid from both Communist and Western countries, the former have to depend on their...
