...move more swiftly onto a path of warmer relations with Peking, and more recently, Moscow. Ayub's government-controlled press has also been a consistent critic of U.S. policy in Viet Nam, which no doubt influenced President Johnson's decision to withdraw his invitation to the Pakistani leader to visit the U.S. last April...

Blimpish Bark. Last week the Union debated the same resolution (now, of course, "for Queen and Country"), and the storm was almost as violent. The man responsible was Tariq Ali, 21, a publicity-happy Pakistani studying at Oxford's Exeter College, who as president of the Union selects the topic of its weekly debates. His choice won him threats from Britain's fledgling Ku Klux Klan ("Watch out, you dirty wog"), four television appearances (worth $56), and 18 newspaper interviews. Letters poured in to editors, who responded with crisp editorials, and the BBC said it would televise...

...disasters hit Pakistan last week, one as modern as the jet age, one as ancient as the wind on the face of the waters. Approaching Cairo, a Pakistani International Airlines Boeing 720B, inaugurating a new Karachi-Cairo-London run, developed engine trouble and crashed.

Sweeping over a sandy escarpment called "God's Dyke" on the Rann's northern lip, a brigade of Pakistani infantry crushed an Indian army outpost at Biar Bet, also occupied a ruined mud-walled fort called Kanjarkot in what India insists is its own territory. India and Pakistan each claimed to have inflicted at least 300 casualties on the other, and Indian Prime Minister Lai Bahadur Shastri, looking far tougher than his frail figure indicates, threatened to invade the Pakistani side of the Rann. Both nations began talking of general mobilization...

Swamp or inland sea, it was hard for outside observers to figure what India and Pakistan had to gain in the Rann-other than a prolongation of their long-standing feud. Some Western diplomats think Pakistani President Mohammed Ayub Khan planned the action before his trip to Washington was "postponed" last month by Lyndon Johnson. In Washington, Ayub could have argued that India, armed with American weapons since its border fight with Red China in 1962, had become dangerously aggressive and should receive no more U.S. military aid.
