An aide close to the President's thinking confirmed this administration goal Tuesday. Barring change, it would mean a substantial increase in the withdrawal rate of 12,500 men a month P 'aMstarn eead attacks Indm President A.M. Yahya Khan of Pakistan accused India Tuesday of massing troops along the East Pakistani frontier while two officials of the Pakistani high commission in Dacca defected to India Tuesday to express their support with the independence movement in East Pakistan. Khan's charge against India said the massing of troops was a move directly threatening the security of Pakistan. India denied the charge. Indian government sources said the two Pakistani officials, Second Secretary K.M. Shehabuddin and Assistant Press Attache Amhadul Huq, asked for a received political asylum in India. Both are East Benghalis. More American refugees were airlifted out of strife-torn East Pakistan Tuesday and told accounts of violence in Dacca. In a broadcast over official Pakistan radio, Yahya said India had sent the equivalent of six army divisions into West Bengal state which borders East Pakistan.

Although Nixon has warned against speculating what the withdrawal rate will be, Sen. George D. Aiken, R-Vt., reported that it already has been accelerated to 1 8,000 a month-an increase of nearly 50 percent. The faster new rate has been in effect for the past two weeks and if it continues, Nixon would "get them all out security." It also said that federal Pakistani troops had again "confronted" armed infiltrators from India. The Indian Foreign Ministry in New Delhi denied Yahya's charge. "We have taken precautions not to put any regular army troops in the area," a ministry spokesman said. He said only paramilitary border forces are stationed along the frontier. Shehabuddin was accompanied by his wife, Kheledi, and their two daughters, Rahuma, 3, and Sarhana, 1. Huq, a bachelor, has parents residing in East Pakistan. West Pakistani agents had shadowed the two diplomats from East Pakistan since the civil war erupted in the province March 25, the defectors reported. Huq, 33, had told UPI that the West Pakistanis could not possibly win the war in East Pakistan and that the liberation forces of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman would fight forever if necessary to gain independence. They said they were defecting to India in order to aid the cause of the freedom struggle. m 30-7:3697 f CUTLET & Bread Zoom BE READY FOR SPRING!!

U.S. troop strength reached its high point in April, 1969, shortly after Nixon took office, when it stood at 543,400 men. It now totals about 300,000, and is Twenty-six weary American men, women and children arrived in Tehran, Iran, Tuesday aboard a Pakistani International Airlines PIA flight from Dacca and told of shooting, burning and tanks rumbling through the streets. Some said it appeared that Pakistani troops were now in control of the breakaway province, separated by 1,000 miles of Indian territory. "I don't think the situation will ever be the same again," said Charles McGinley of Bethesda, Md. "I feel like I am 100 years old now." McGinley, U.S. cultural affairs officer:' in Dacca, returned with the group of refugees for normal reassignment. "In Dacca the army is now in control and it was quiet when we last left it," he said. . The Americans who arrived in Tehran consisted of nine families.

The Nixon aide said the next phase would be in line with the pattern of withdrawing mostly ground combat troops, leaving behind a sufficient air, logistics and security force to support South Vietnamese troops. The President spent most of the day working on drafts of his speech and conferring with aides, including Henry A. Kissinger, his national security affairs adviser, in a hideaway office in the Executive Office Building adjacent to the White House. Meanwhile, in Indochina, South Vietnamese "Black Panther" troops flew --into Laos aboard U.S. helicopters Tuesday and reported blowing up a North Called musics Picasso taviim NEW YORK-Composer Igor Stravinsky, a towering genius who changed the course of 20th century music, died Tuesday at his Manhattan home at 88, mourned even in his native Russia where his work was long abhorred as decadent. A fatal heart attack struck the frail, ailing composer-conductor-author in the early morning hours as he slept in his Fifth Avenue apartment. His wife, former ballerina Vera de Bossett, who rarely left his side in recent years, was with him at the end. Stravinsky's passing evoked eulogies from musical figures around the world and touched off plans for a round of memorial concerts. Vienna Philharmonic Musicians and Conductor Leonard Bernstein interrupted a rehearsal for a moment of silence when they received the news. The consensus of experts was that Stravinsky's place in musical history will rest mainly on his popular early works-"Firebird", "Petrouchka" and 'The Rite of Spring"-rather than those OE.JJJE.WEEK: t - T' Durham 544-3711 mti i&iuto&m)s!$) n.rHMr..1i ".-Swum mi iV ciowe ( . i! vJJJJ U JaP --rii.,1.,.,, .f, ,- r .

The Laos raid was the second by South Vietnamese troops since the end of the 45-day Saigon offensive against Hanoi's Ho Chi Minh Trail and more such forays were predicted. South Vietnamese commandos had tried to attack the base sky oeaoi composed after World War I, although the 1951 opera, 'The Rake's Progress", has entered the standard repertory. "The works he composed before he was 30 are the ones that changed the course of music," said fellow composer Virgil Thomson. "Those are the crucial compositions of the 20th century." French composer Henri Sauget declared Stravinsky was "the equivalent of Picasso to music." Sir Arthur Bliss, England's most honored composer, described him as "one of those geniuses which come along once or twice in a century." Canadian conductor Wilfrid Pelletier linked him with Richard Strauss as the two greatest composers of our century."

Fewer than 300 men of the elite Hjc Bao Black Panther unit of South Vietnam's 1st Infantry Division took part in the seven-hour Laos mission Tuesday, moving into the heart of 611 and claiming to have killed 15 North Vietnamese while suffering light casualties themselves. D(0 Stravinsky adopted his own style about 1909 to write ballet scores for impresario Serge Diaghilev. He used syncopation irregular meters, and explosive dissonances which aroused violent criticism. The audience reaction to the 1913 Paris premier of 'The Rite of Spring" was so turbulent that Stravinsky fled through a backstage window just , before police arrived. After the Russian Revolution Stravinsky resided permanently in France and became a French citizen. He tempered his modernity somewhat to develop a neo-classic style that h3d its finest flowering in the opera, "Oedipus Rex" 1926, and 'The Symphony of Psalms" 1930. During this period he developed his role as pianist and conductor of his own works. IS 103 E. Franklin St. I i t fit! 1 ' - I j Ml 1 1 '' Chaps! Hill 942-3143 an t - - EAST If fj
