NEW YORK: Pakistan has no aggressive designs and no territorial ambitions, Mr Liaquat Ali Khan, Prime Minister of Pakistan, said here tonight [May 9], but in an easy world, `must be prepared to resist aggression in all its forms`. The Prime Minister reviewed his country`s economic and industrial policy at length in an address to the Far East America Council of Commerce and Industry and the National Foreign Trade Council.
Hardly any democracy in Asia was freer or more unified than Pakistan, he said. He hoped that increased understanding with Bharat `of which some happy signs have already appeared`, would enable both Pakistan and Bharat to employ a greater part of their resources for productive purposes. ...
[Meanwhile, according to news agencies in Madras,] Mr C.R. Srinivasan and Pir Ali Mohammad Rashdi, Presidents respectively of the Bharati and Pakistan Newspaper Editors` Conferences, yesterday [May 8] appealed to the Press in both the countries to propagate that the foundations of freedom lay `not in hate but in love, not on passions and prejudices but on truth and tolerance`.
