PLEA MADE ON BEHALF

OF PAKISTAN

London, June 21.-The Pakistan Finance Minister, Mr Ghulam Mohammed, said in London today that Western countries could go a long way towards preserving world peace if they would realise that having exploited Asian countries they now had a moral obligation to nssist them.

"Pakistan wants to establish friendly trade relations with every country and also co-operate with all advanced Western coun-

Two Carriers

Washington, June 21.- The Secretary of Defence, Mr Loafs Johnson, with Pre- sident Truman's approval, today proposed the moderni- sation of two aircraft carriers at a total cost of $80,000,000.

"Old standpoints must be re- vised, Democratie institutions will be in danger if the vast mases of the people of Asia are allowed to live under sub-human conditions without any hope of betterment," he added.

Mr Vyshinsky Foreign Minister In Name Only

Paris, June 21.--Mr Andrei Vyshinsky, new Soviet Foreign Minister, has been forced to disclose publicly that he is only a minor functionary of the Soviet bureaucracy despite his important title.

That fact stood out like a sore thumb today after the Council of Foreign Ministers ended their four weeks' meeting and the Ministers returned home to evaluate their work.

According to Western delegates, Mr Vyshinsky, appearing for the first time at an international conference in his new job, was a flop. He had no powers of his own. These delegates cite many examples to support their thesis that Mr Vyshin- sky is Foreign Minister of the Soviet Union only in
