Getting a cordial welcome and favorable response from Nehru, Black flew on to Karachi to test President Mohammed Ayub Khan and to exploit the feeling in both lands that this might be the last chance for a peace. Last week, boarding his plane for the U.S., Black said cheerfully: "We have reached agreement on certain principles, which we hope will lead to a final settlement."
