...nationwide television program, President Mohammed Ayub Khan, 60, blamed neighboring India for the bad relations between the two countries that cost each of them millions every year in armament outlays. He also scoffed at India's preoccupation with China. "All this fear about China is nonsense," said Ayub, whose country, unlike India, has not suffered Chinese attack. "The Chinese have no intention of getting embroiled in this vast subcontinent with its teeming millions."

It recently ranked 46th among the states in per capita support of higher education. The situation was so bad that a committee headed by Princeton President Robert F. Goheen last year urged a complete reorganization of the system. Pushed by Governor Richard Hughes, the New Jersey legislature enacted reforms, took higher education out of the hands of a state board and department of education dominated by the public grade...
