before the close friendship of other years can be restored. In the past dosen years the United States has extended some $3 billion worth of economic aid to Pakistan and another $1.5 billion in military aid, making her Pakistan's chief supplier. Out of the Humphrey-Khan talks came a U. 8. promise of a further $50 million in economic aid and the announcement that negotiations soon would start for shipment of emergency wheat supplies to help offset a disastrous drought which , hit both Pakistan and India needs an estimated 12 million tons, Pakistan’s 115 million people an estimated two to three million tons. The $50 million will provide immediate booster Shot to provide Pakistan industry with badly needed raw materials.. But is is less than one-fifth the amount planned under Pakistan’s new five-year development program and suggests that, as with India, the United States plans to exert frankly the power of its economic aid against another outbreak of the Pakistan-India war such as occurred last September. The differences between the United States and Pakistan most kindly, be attributed to a misunderstanding of terms. Pakistan regards her SEATO and CENTO links and U. S. aid more as a guaranty against Lidia than as part of a world-
wide chain ef aggressive Communism. India, equally fearful ef Pakistan, ieneunaed U. 8. aid to Pakistan but aceepted it willingly for herself after Rad China's attack an bar own frontier.. This in turn angered Pakistan which then began moving closer to Red China. The U. S. was caught in the middle-. Each in its own way, India and Pakistan were right. For in .the end they turned their foreign military aid against each other- ■, The war probably was more costly to Pakistan than India. It dangerously depleted her foreign currency reserves. When thru. 8. cut off military aid, she had no way to replace losses. A combination of drought and monsoon floods cut down production of food grata, phis •otton aad jute for axport The final result, a drastic cut la her development plans, plus heavy near taxee aad austerity. For this, the Pakistanis blame the United States.

Saddle Club Meets The Balnbridge Saddle Club met‘at the Community Building Saturday night, Feb. 12, with a smaller attendance than usual but never has there been so much handshaking in the greetings, the reason, there was a mystery man appointed and the first to shake his hand won a prize. Cecil Robertson won by being the first to shake hands with Larry Ensor. An old fashioned box-supper had been planned for the evening and Bill Perkins auctioned the large boxes of food, decorated, some using the valentine theme, others resembled gift packages, another trimmed with horse pictures, even a picnic basket disguised in white paper wrapping. Bidding was heated and prices high as fee results ranged from $3.50 to $7.25 totallying $75.50. A lot of fun and delicious food for fee buyers and the owners of the boxes. Each child brought his lunch so they enjoyed eating together. The recent purchase of eighty acres ef land, a goal the club had been working toward since it originated, twenty years ago, brings fee need of many things to be done; fence to build, rock or gravel for a parking area, locations of a show arena, camping area and future dub house. So many things to accomplish together. The willingness of the members to work and their offers to furnish equipment and materials was really heart warming. An official seal is needed. Janet Oliver offered to design a copy. Jeanette Jordan Is compiling a history of fee club and will have it ready for fee March meeting. A show committee was appointed. This includes Bill Williams, Gerald Burdette, Bill Sowder, Larry Ensor, Tom Gibson, Jerry Phillips and Morris Williams. They and fee Directors will meet at fee Club Grounds Sunday afternoon Feb. 20. New members include Mr. and Mrs. Robert Nichols and family, Mir. and Mrs. Bob Moore and son, Bobby Harney, Fred Chadd, Netta Ray, and Mr. and Mrs. Lee Hasten and daughters. Visitors for fee evening were Mr. and Mrs. Roth of Lebanon. The remainder of fee evening was spent modern square dancing and visiting.
