v-nc J. Ktf, An African viture HAVE come among people who love the 1 President and the people of the United States," said Dr. William R. Tolbert at 58 the new President of Liberia on Africa's West coast. He gave Pat Nixon a hearty hug and a kiss on both cheeks.

"It's just great to be here and I can't wait to get around and meet some people," smiled Mrs. Nixon, who wore a long-sleeved red, white and blue dress and looked cheery and relaxed despite the steamy heat of Robertsfield International Airport outside Monrovia. It was the first step in a lively 7-day goodwill tour of West African nations Liberia, Ghana and the Ivory Coast. Dr. Tolbert's inauguration was the first stop.

The Baptist minister had been Vice President for 19 years under the late President William Tubman, now promised "to eradicate whatever we identify as unwholesome in our society while preserving those things that are worthy." Pat Nixon, flanked by Billy Graham and 38 other Americans, were the official delegation and she delighted Liberians by watching a snake dance by bare-breasted girls; allowing herself to be wrapped in a floor-length African dress and taking a few dance steps herself. X. i7 i. 1 LIBERIA'S PRESIDENT TOLBERT (CENTER) WITH and the millions of East Pakistani refugees who had fled to India from the brutal military rule of Yahya's soldiers during the past nine or ten months. India, estimating that it had cared for nearly 10 million such refugees, claimed that a substantial number had already been returned to their homeland now that it had achieved independence.

Each returning family was provided with a cooking pot, 10 pounds of rice, packets of wheat, charcoal, chocolate, oil, soap and four rupees. Some of them plodded along the roads leading to the border barefoot; others piled into U.N. trucks for the journey home often to find their house in ruins. them win the war, and hence their independence. Well aware of Pakistan's accusations that India wanted to make a protectorate cf Bangladesh, India was trying to keep its remaining troops there as inconspicuous as possible, and had already withdrawn a reported 35,000.

Nevertheless somewhere between 30,000 and 48,000 still remained. Much of the confusion, in fact, was the result of immense numbers of people being moved or wanting to be moved back to where they had come from. The two other such large groups, in addition to the Indian forces, were not yet repatriated West Pakistani prisoners of war approximately 93,000 MRS. NIXON white crescent flag of Pakistan waved overhead, he asked his audience, Castro-fashion, to approve his granting freedom to Mujib. The crowd obliged with a mighty roar.

'World Opinion' That was fine, Bhutto replied in Urdu, and coincided with "world opinion." But then he described the steps taken toward the Sheik's release as "preliminary," and indicated he planned further discussions with Mujib before granting him unconditional release. In the meantime President Bhutto was also struggling with his severed country's economic problems in clssic Marxist fashion. Though well-to-do himself, he chose to address his countrymen in peasant garb as he inveighed against West Pakistan's "22 families" whom he accused of possessing most of the national wealth. As a first step in land reform farmers had already been promised 12 acres apiece the Swat emerald holdings, property of a son-in-law of Yahya, had been nationalized. The Basic Ten Furthermore, Bhutto announced in Karachi' last week, the slate was seizing control of ten basic industries including iron and steel, heavy engineering, heavy chemicals, cement, electricity, gas and oil.

It was not outright nationalization, however explained Pakistani Finance Minister Mu-bashir Hassan: The boards of directors of the 20 firms affected had been dismissed and replaced by government-appointed executives. But, with the exception of a single small rayon mill, the textile industry West Pakistan's largest source of in come had not yet been touched. Sunday Examiner Chronicle But some journalists reported that only a few hundred refugees had optad for the opportunity to leave India and estimated that perhaps as many as three million would try to stay there. "It is evident," wrote Lewis Simons of the Washington Post from a Bangladesh frontier village, "that (India's) goal of clearing all the refugees out in the next two months will be nearly impossible to meet." Insurance Salesman Repatriation of the West Pakistani POWs was tied to the fate of the man revered by the Bengalis of East Pakistan-Bangladesh as the father of their new country: Sheik Mujibur Rahman, a former insurance salesman who had spent most of the last decade in jail because of his efforts to win greater autonomy for his fellow Bengalis. It was not certain, however, that Sheik Mujibsaweye to eye with the new nation's leaders.

As head of theAwa-mi League, far and away the strongest political force in East Pakistan, Mujib had consistently and ardently advocated autonomy and "our right to live." But he had championed a federation within Pakistan, not total independence, and had argued for central government control of defense and foreign affairs. Yahya had imprisoned Mujib last March and charged him with treason, after Mu-jib's Awami League had won a landslide majority in an election which was to have chosen delegates charged with writing the nation's first democratic constitution. Since then, Mujib had not been seen in public. One of Bhutto's first acts on taking over from Yahya had been to transfer Mujib from prison to house arrest, and to confer with him. But he had been coy about releasing him, leading observers to assume that Bhutto planned to use his valuable hostage as a pawn to win repatriation of West Pakistani prisoners.

"Some people said the Sheik was my trump card and I could use him to get concessions," Bhutto told a West Pakistani crowd 100,000 last week. "Others said, why should we try to get concessions? I agree with them. I don't want any bargaining on the Sheik." Then, as the green and Chess for Cash "pSCIIER MAGIC" some chess fans called it. Bobby Fischer, the 28-year-old American high school dropout who will play the Soviet Union's World Champion Boris Spassky 24 games for the championship sometime this year, calls it simply, "money." Ten nations and 5 cities (4 of them in Yugoslavia) had bid for the two-month-long championship match. Highest cash prizes offered (67 per cent to the winner) in the last 30 years was the $12,000 paid in Buenos Aires last October where Fischer boat Ti-gran Pctrosian for the right to meet Spassky.

Top bid this time was an eye-popping $152,000 from Belgrade, Yugoslavia, barely topping Argentina's $150,000. But both Fischer and Spassky could make their own choices from the list, then dicker for a final match site. S. F.
