Arabs still have contempt for the African Negroes who por- vided slaves for Egypt, Algeria, /Tunisia and Morocco. And Ne- gro Africans still fear the Arabs as slave traders.

(AP)--Six persons, including a Sarnia, Ont. truck driver, died today when 14 vehicles piled. up in dense fog on the New Jersey turnpike, police said, Five of the victims died at the scene and a sixth died three hours later in St. James Hos- pital in Newark. An earlier. report of seven dead was based on the recov- ery of five bodies and indica- jtions that two more were be- neath a huge mound of wreck- age, police said. About 10 more were injured, one of them critically, police added. Police would not speculate on the cause of the accidents be- yond blaming the fog. One of the dead was identi- fied as James St. Maria Blake, 34, of 184 Cedar Crescent, sar- nia, driving a truckload of fish. One of the injured, A.
