India Club to Send Aid To Indian War Aid Fund
Members of the India Club at KU will send monetary contributions and a letter to the Indian government supporting its current fight against the Red Chinese along the McMahon Line.
At a meeting of the club las night in the Kansas Union, Vinod Patel, Bombay, India, special student, said he would collect contributions from Indian students. He will send the money to the Prime Minister's War Aid Fund at the end of this week.
A letter containing two resolutions will be sent several days before. The resolutions are:
- "It is the duty of every Indian to give moral support to our government in the present situation and
in order to give such support we feel that we must contribute something for the war fund of India.
- "It is the humble and the noble duty of every Indian to fight for the nation if the freedom of our mother land is in danger."
The letter will also say that the Indian students are ready to sacrifice their studies if their country needs them, Patel said.
"We will send some money regularly every week," Patel said. "There is no reason to save up until we have a large amount."
The club may later solicit contributions from persons outside the club and used clothing from organized living groups.

BUENOS AIRES — (UPI) Two Argentina warships scheduled to join in the blockade of Cuban arms shipments will reach the Caribbean Thursday.
Argentina Will Join Blockade
The announcement came last night from Rear Admiral Carlos Kolungia, secretary of the navy. He did not disclose the position where the Argentine vessels will meet U.S. forces.
Earlier in the evening, Foreign Minister Carlos Muniz announced that the Argentine army will build up a brigade if necessary in order to support hemispheric peace. He said the action would be taken under a resolution adopted by the Organization of American States.

Indian Troops Drive Back Reds; U.S. Aid On Way
United Press International
NEW DELHI—Indian forces drove back two Communist Chinese attacks in northeast India today amid reports the Reds have begun a troop buildup near the vital air supply base of Chusul in the northwest.
The defense ministry announced that the Chinese had been repulsed in the central and eastern sectors of the northeast region of the border region.
"In the Subansiri division . . . one of our patrols encountered some Chinese and there was an exchange of fire," a defense ministry spokesman said. "In this action, our patrol inflicted casualties on the Chinese without any loss to themselves.
"IN THE VICINITY of Walong, our troops fired on a party of Chinese who tried to approach one of our positions and forced them to withdraw."
Galbraith said the U.S. aid "is not intended to involve India in a military alliance or otherwise influence her policy."
The military flareup was reported as United States Ambassador John Kenneth Galbraith said the United States is giving India military aid without any strings attached.
The ambassador said the United States accepted India's non-alignment policy and "we would not change our stand now." He assured Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru of this again when he saw him yesterday.
"OUR AID IS designed to help defend India's independence and not to compromise it," he said.
Galbraith added that the United States does not want the border conflict between India and the invading Red Chinese continued or extended.
"We share fully India's interest in a peaceful settlement that does not reward the attacker," he said.
In another development, it was announced that ousted Defense Minister V. K. Krishna Menon and four retired military commanders will be members of India's newly-formed 30-man National Defense Council. Later, amidst rumors of his impending resignation from his new post as minister of defense production, Krishna Menon said in a speech that no matter what his job, "I will contribute my mite to the country's war efforts."
