(AP)-- The leaders of India and Pakis- tan agreed today to withdraw troops from -along their in- flamed frontier and work for "normal and peaceful' rela- tions once more. Prime Minister Shastri of. In- dia and President Ayub Khan of Pakistan sidestepped their specific quarrel over Kashmir and other major issues that have taken them to war twice in 17 years but signed a nine- point Tashkent Declaration The declaration represented a diplomatic victory for their host Soviet Premier Alexei Ko- sygin ,who worked far into Sun- day night to persuade his guests to end their week-long confer- ence on a positive note even if they couldn't agree on any ma- jor issues. The troop withdrawal is to take place Feb. 25, with units on both sides pulling back to positions held prior to Aug. 5. India claims that on Aug. 5 Pakistan started sending infil- trators into the section of Kash- fighting that led up to the three- week war in September. WON'T INTERFERE Future relations between In- dia and Pakistan "shall be hased on the principle of non- interference in the internal af- fairs of each other" the dec- laration said. Ayub and Shastri also agreed to discourage propaganda against each other's country and exchange high commission- leaders realized that the inter- ests of their people "were not served by continued tension." But it made clear that the chief cause of tension the dispute over Kashmir had, sotved. The declaration said they had discussed Kashmir and 'each side set forth its position." Shastri and Ayub also agreed to consider measures to restore ec ic, trade and cultural re- ers again returning diplomatic relations to normal. lations and communications severed by them in September. They also agreed to repatri- not been ate prisoners captured in the war. Along with sidestepping Kash- mir, which Pakistan demanded be negotiated, Ayub and Shastri also avoided mention of the In- dian proposal of a no-war pact. The declaration said. the two leaders "reaffirm their obliga- tion under the (United Nations) charter not to have recourse to force and to settle their dis- putes through peaceful means." Ayub had refused to sign @ no-war pact unless the Kashmir issue was solved.

Even as the weary negotia- tors were leaving, the rumble of converging traffic was build- ing in Manhattan's canyons. City officials said the commut- ing millions, with a week's bit- ter experience behind them, had started earlier on this sec- work week of the strike. "Mayor John V. Lindsay, who had summoned the parties to City Hall late Sunday, signalled) the recess when he walked from the hall into sub-freezing tem- 'peratures at 6:20 a.m., declar- ing: "The (mediation) panel has declared a recess." He declined further comment, and indicated he would have a _ statement some time after noon. Later Lindsay was followed by Douglas L. MacMahon, head- ing the union bargaining team in- the absence of jailed trans- port union president Michael J. Quill. "DIDN'T HELP" He said the transit authority had made "no meaningful of- fer" and that '"'the mayor sat in on some of these meetings but he didn't. seem to prove a help." MacMahon said Lindsay had mieniivned a $50,600,000 figure that would cover all Transit Au-| thority supervisory and union employees and 'everyone else." MacMahon rejected it saying he was bargaining only for hourly paid transit workers. MacMahon aaid the union ne- gotiators were told the $50,000,- 000 "was the political needs of tioned the figure, he replied: "Lindsay." Previously, the authority had offered a $29,000,000 package, and the union's scaled down de- mands stood at $2160,00,000. The recess ended a bargaining session that started Sunday morning at the Hotel Amer- icana and moved to City Hall late in the afternoon.

Wilson was expected to re- port to thé two-day Lagos con- ference opening Tuesday that sanctions, including an oil em- bargo, against rebellious Rhodesia are biting deeper and more speedily than had been expected. Arthur Bottomley, Common- wealth relations secretary, ac- companying Wilson, said Satur- day night that Britain may well impose further sanctions on Rhodesia as a result of the Lagos talks. Declining to state what these might be, Bottomley said "we hope to get others to follow our lead." Ninety-five. per cent of Rhodesia's exports to Britain have already been stopped ESTIMATE SUPPLIES Various sources estimate that Rhodesia has oil supplies suffi- cient for from 10 weeks to three months, at its Present rate of consumption. The*sup- plies would last longer under more severe rationing, but this would mean a semi-paralysis of industry and a weakening. of Security services that depend on motor transport. Wilson, meanwhile, was re- ported preparing a declaration on the conditions under which jritain proposes that the Rhodesian crisis be ended. Publication would be delayed until the British government figured it could have maximum effect. on Rhodesian opinion. Some reports said this would be within two weeks. It likely would be accompanied by fur- ther sanctions, including finan- cial measures to block credit facilities now available. through certain banks in Rhodesia. Four British members of Parliament, representing the three political parties, returned from Rhodesian visits urging that discussions should start at once. between the breakaway colony and Britain. They sug- gested the tdlks could begin at a low level Wilson was zeported to think there are sufficient figures of good will, including Negroes, who would work with Sir Hum- phrey Gibbs, the British gover- nor of Rhodesia, to form a caretaker government.

Meetings of Commonwealth heads of government usually range over a broad field, but on three previous occasions, conferences have been domin- ated by one subject of special occasion, Benzene Blaze Danger Passes SARNIA (CP)--The danger of fire from highly - inflammable benzene which escaped Friday from a supply line into a ditch and solidified in freezing tem- peratures was eliminated Sun- day night. Foremen and oil refinery workers removed the last traces of the chemical from an open ditch beside Highway 40 on the outskirts of this city. For a time the benzene was a foot deep for 1,500 feet along the ditch beside the highway. There were fears a stray match the last Parliament were dropped and eight others switched ministers. In a statement issued after his departure for Nigeria, Mr. Pearson also announced that Parliament will be asked to authorize appointment of six more secretaries, bringing the total to 22.
