KASHMIR ISSUE
India Offers Peace Pact
(N.Z.P.A.-Reuter —Copyright) WASHINGTON. June 6.
India was preparing to put forward a "no war” pact with Pakjstan and to register it in the United Nations, the Indian President Dr. Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan, said yesterday.
Speaking at a press luncheon, he said. “I want to say on behalf of my Government that, in the last round of talks (with Pakistan on the Kashmir issue) we said that we were prepared to pledge ourselves not to use force to settle the Kashmir dispute or any other dispute. “We shall not freeze this situation,” the Indian President said, “but will do everything in our power to try to get a settlement in a peaceful atmosphere without the threat of war, without intimidation, or without blackmail. “We have so much in common with Pakistan that it is an irritating thing, an agom isdng thing, that there should be this sort of misunderstanding between our two countries.”
