Two Algerians In Civil
Suit Over “Sale” of 19
Year-Old French Girl
PARIS, (/P) — Two Algerians
went to law in a Paris court
Friday over sale of a beautiful
19-year-old French girl named
Carmen.
Ali Boutiba alleged that Mo
hammed Amar “sold” him the
girl in Paris for 20,000 francs ($57)
plus 7,000 francs ($20) for her
wardrobe.
Attorneys said such a sale was
legal in France, provided white
slave laws are, not violated. After
one day with Boutiba, the girl re
turned to Amar. Boutiba claimed
the money he said he had paid.
Amar denied he had been paid
at all.
The girl was alleged to be preg
nant. Mohammed Amar said he
would be willing to recognize
paternity of her child because
that way he could draw family
allowances from the state.
The case was adjourned because
necessary oath-taking in a Mos
que could not take place during
the Moslem holy month of Rama
dan, which starts Saturday.

Financial Dispute Settled,
Way Is Paved for West
German Peace Contract
BONN, Germany, UP)— Chan
cellor Konrad Adenauer and the
western Allies solved their major
financial dispute holding up the
West German peace contract yes
terday and made preparations for
a weekend visit from the Big
Three foreign ministers.
In a 13 - hour session ending
shortly after midnight, Adenauer
and western representatives of the
Allies agreed in principle on what
Allied troops in Germany would
get from the 850 million marks
($202,300,000) a month the Ger
mans have agreed to raise for
defense.
The foreign ministers are ex
pected here Saturday for final
settlement of two remaining
points in the contract and signing
of the treaty on Monday.
Gunfire Exchanged on
Portuguese Macau Border
HONG KONG, <^P) — Troops
along the Portuguese Macau -
Communist China border ex
changed gunfire Thursday. Hong
Kong observers interpreted it as
an isolated exchange between
border guards and not an invasion
of the tiny Portuguese colony by
Chinese Reds.
Associated Press correspondent
Delinda Da Consiecao said the
Reds fired across the border and
Portuguese-African troops re
turned* the fire. Portuguese auth
orities rushed artillery to the bor
der, she added in a telephone call.
Reports, however, circulated in
Hong Kong that the Chinese Reds
had moved heavy troop concen
trations to Macau’s three-mile
northern border with China.
Checks with Portuguese authori
ties in Hong Kong failed to con
firm that.
Gold and copper are believed
to have been the first metals
known and used by man.
