Blue chip industrials, rails Yemen Head May Have Died Long Before Tuesday Aden lUPlt Imam Ahmed of the Yemen died long before the Yemen's Radio Sanaa an nounced the news to the world Wednesday, informed sources said today. The radio said the Yemeni temporal and spiritual ruler, 71, died Tuesday night in his palace at Taiz. It said Ahmed's son, Crown Prince Saif Al Islam El Badr, was proclaimed new ruler of the isolated des ert kingdom. A usually reliable Yemeni source in Aden said the Imam died "long before last Tues day." Friends In Aden of a Yemeni prince who left Ger many last Sunday said the prince had heard rumors of the Imam's death while he was still in Bonn. New Imam El Badr, who was vice pre mier and handled foreign af fairs and defense, made his first address to the nation as the new Imam over Sanaa Ra dio Wednesday night. He declared a policy of non alignment, respect for the U.N. charter, and cooperation with all Arab states. Imam Ahmed, who had a long history of poor health, ruled his countiy with an iron fist, and foreigners could only enler it with his permission. His father was assassinated, he survived at least one assas sination attempt, and many reports of internal trouble have leaked out of the Yemen in the past decade.

There have been pressures for the United Slides to move ahead with the project on ils own - and along different lines - unless Canada ratifies it soon.

"We believe it would be of great benefit to British Columbia and lo Can ada ."
