Mr. Pearson's statement said External Affairs Min- ister Martin had informed the high commissioners of India and Pakistan Thurs- day that the prime minis- ter would be ready to medi- ate in the Kashmir dispute, The statement said'. , . I would be prepared to offer my immediate services to help bring about a cease- fire in Kashmir and for such other purposes as the two routs HA A governments might agree would be helpful in improv- ing their relations in this situation," The United Nations Sec- retary-General, U, Thant, was informed of Mr, Pear- son's offer, The three-paragraph state- ment made ho- mention of the reaction of India and Pakistan, if any, to the offer, Mr, Martin called in the representatives of India and Pakistan here Thursday and urged them to respond to Mr. Thant's appeal for a ceasefire. Mr. Martin had expressed PULL ULLAL UA Canada's "grave concern" over events in Kashmir, It has been traditional policy in Canada to refrain from becoming involved as o moderator in disputes be- tween India and Pakistan. In this case, however, the possibility of a departure from this policy was' not ex- cluded by highly-placed in- formants, FEEL OUT CANADA In recent years, thefe have been periodic reports that Canada might be asked to mediate the Kashmir dis- pute, but nothing came of them. India and Pakistan gustan tai atag tent na never followed up the feel- ers they put out to the Canadian .government in this regard, The present situation may be different in that Canada, instead of waiting for an in- vitation from both sides, might be offering its good offices. Since 1949, Canada has provided nine members: of the 1l-nation, 40-man UN observer mission in Kash- mir, The Kashmir opera- tion, now supported by an RCAF Caribou with a crew of seven, was the UN's first peacekeeping venture, vite eterat teen nt ttt BEJOY KRISHNA ACHARYA PEACE APPEALS TO BOTH SIDE! BY RUSS, U.S. Threat means to get India to agree to some final, acceptable solution; to the Kashmir issue, There was some indication that the late Jawaharlal Nehru was edging towards negotia- tions. The Pakistan president may have believed that Nehru's successor might be even more ready to get a final settlement, But Shastri has shown he has a backbone of iron, Attempts by Kashmir guerrillas to infil- trate the Indian side of the ceasefire line have been re- pulsed. There is no doubt among many Western observers that this initial infiltration attempt had the support of Pakistan, which in turn may feel it can turn to China for help if the Kashmir flareup should turn into full war, India now has moved a step further by invading and seizing strongholds on the Pakistani side of the ceasefire line, per- haps feeling that in the event of full war, New Delhi could count on help from Moscow, Pakistan says it won't allow India's "aggression" to go un- challenged.

He declined to name the MPs.

Official sources in Karachi, Pakistan, said one of its jets was damaged by Indian fire but landed safely on Pakistani territory.
