The note said the inci- dents occurred "at a time when the Indian govern- ment was carrying out armed suppression against Pakistan." Such statements could be used by the Chinese leader- ship to provide a political base for military action against India at any time.

But India said its forces were advancing on both fronts, in the north and 600 miles to the south where it launched invasions Wednesday. It was understood the tough- est fighting was in the border regions of the north near the West Pakistan city of Kasur and India's city of Frezepore in Punjab.

An official spokesman quoted by Radio Pakistan said a Pa- kistan counter-attack launched Wednesday on a 50-mile front facing the city of Lahore, Pa- kistan's second biggest, resulted in the capture of many prison- ers and a large quantity of In- dian equipment. The thrust at Gadra--claimed by the Indians to have fallen Wednesday--has cost the In- dian forces heavy casualties, Radio Pakistan said.

Apart from intensifying the world Communist feud, the war now could shred the facade of Afro-Asian unity, create confu- sion among the so-called non- aligned nations which India pro- fesses to inspire, and splinter that "third world." Both India and Pakistan are poorly equipped economically for a long war without outside help. But the fighting could con- tinue for some time. Both In- dia and Pakistan laid prestige on the line, and that is impor- tant in Asia. Both seem trapped into a position precluding re- reat, Asia already has a full meas- ure of peril in the Vietnamese war and the Indonesian threat to neighboring Malaysia.
