...Watts. There they were trapped among their own kind, smothered in their own ignorance of a new way of life, drowned in their frustration. "What they know about sheriffs and police is Bull Conner and Jim Clark," says Los Angeles Municipal Judge Loren Miller, a Negro. "The people distrust the police and the police distrust the people. They move in a constant atmosphere of hate." This was the atmosphere, largely unsuspected by most Angelenos, in which last week's fury erupted. The chronology...
...banquet last week, Russia's Premier Aleksei Kosygin noted that it had been 33 years since a Turk ish head of government had last visited the Soviet Union.

Someone who wants to get annoyed or insulted...
Such appeals have a familiar ring to African nationalists. It is unlikely, however, that they will bring the Sudanese rebels much support. Although most black African leaders distrust the Arabs, few seem willing to risk splitting the continent into two hostile camps. A successful secession movement would set a dangerous precedent for such ethnic friction points as Nigeria and Chad, both of which are already hard put to keep peace between their Arab and Negro populations...
