New Clashes in India
Stir Fears for Years
Of Border Conflict
BY the Associated Press

NEW DELHI, India, Aug. u.s.
Fresh reports of warfare between
religious communities in the India
and Pakistan areas Of partitioneo
tPunjab caused gloomy speculation
today that border conflict oil
months. or even years, might be in
prospect.
From both dominions came re-
peated reports of attacks on such
trains as still were running. The
pattern was the same: Trains were
stopped and searched and passen-
gers belonging to the opposite re-
lgious community were slaughtered
The Sikhs and Hindus generally
were killing Moslems in India and
receiving treatment in kind in
Pakistan.
Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru
of India and Gov. Gen. M. A. Jinnah
of Pakistan appealed for cessa-
ton of reprisals. The Pakistan gov
eminent of West Punjab issued a
public warning at Lahore that
travel was wholly insecure" be-
tween Lahore and Delhi.
Newspapers here said some areas
of West Punjab were cut off to ref
ugees seeking to get into India.
There also were stories of streams
of Moslems trying to reach Pakistan.
Accounts of murder, rape, arson and
train holdups were printed in pro-
fusion.
The Sikhs particularly were in
censed because of the division of
Punjab, leaving their main shrine
and many lesser ones in Moslem
Pakistan. The weekly Sikh maya
zine Liberator said that. unless Sikh
demands were satisfied. 1--WE shall
make the existence of Pakistan i'm
possible, whatever the cost"
From 100000 to 100000 Sikhs
are estimated to live in the Punjab.
The Liberator said half still were
in Pakistan. The newest Sikh de-
mand was that Pakistan and India
agree on a homeland for. the Sikhs.
It appeared unlikely that the Sikhs
would in any near time abandon
their present homes and their major
shrines and temples in Pakistan,
despite efforts Of the Moslems to
drive them out.

The armies must 60 home. leaving
behind them only token forces in
Germany and at sensitive and I'M

evacuation of Europe would have
to be followed by agreement that
a European states may enter the

In return for that, We could af-

In the Middle East we should
propose a new treaty covering the

Greece and Turkey, the port of

Such a settlement is, l believe,

reflects the actual balance of
