Truman said today the chances of the Russians not violating the re cently signed test ban treaty were "very slim. "I don't trust them across the street," he commented in an impromptu interview dur ing his morning stroll. "They broke 32 agreements with me at Potsdam, and 48 altogether, including the ones signed by President Roosevelt at Yalta, "You can't blame me for being a little skeptical, They're no good," he added, again referring to the Rus-sians. Nevertheless, Truman said the treaty, still subject to Sen ate ratification, had his full backing. "I'm for it, and I wrote President Kennedy and told him so. May Change "The idea is to get a start on those things and you can always amend them. After all, they, the Russians, may change and keep the agree- mcnt. That's the chance you've got to take." Truman, still jaunty for his 79 years, would not hazard a guess on how long it would be before the treaty ts broken "I'm no prophet, and I don't intend to be, but it's a step in the right direction," he commented When asked about the oppo sition of Dr. Edward Teller, "father of the H-bomb," to the treaty, Truman said, "he's a good scientist, but he doesn't know anything about poll tics." Teller this week appeared before the Senate foreign re lations defense and atomic en ergy committees to oppose the agreement which bans nucle ar testing in the atmosphere on the ground and In the sea Impede Development Teller argued that the ban on atmospheric testing would impede development of an anti-ballistic missile system on which he said America's second-strike, or retaliatory, missile force largely depend ed. He said that Russia, as the result of its long test series in 1961-62, was ahead of the United States in constructing an anti-ballistic missile. However, other scientists have expressed doubt that Russia has been able to dc velop an anti-ballistic missile Appling's Father Dies in Beaverton Bcaverton - IUPII - Howell Appling Sr., 65, the father of Oregon s secretary of stole, died Thursday night in a local nursing home where he was confined after suffering stroke earlier this summer.

(UPI) missed coal mine chamber 331 feet be- Trapped Miners Joke, Laugh, Sing Songs, Enter 11th Day By H. D. QUIGG United Press International "From this valley they say you are going . . ." Eleven days under, and the entombed men are sing ing. Two of them. "I miss your bright eyes and sweet smile . . ." Joking, laughing at death. "Ask Gene, did I get any traffic tickets." i The third man down there in the caved-in coal mine . . . well, he's trapped 1 n another compartment and nothing has been heard from him since Tuesday. The rescuers and the rela tives and the well-wishers and the morbidly curious on the surface, 330 feet above, seem to have quietly agreed to stop talking about him. But David Fcllin, 58, and Henry Throne, 28, are fight ing the good fight - as are their kinfolk on the sur face, the way veteran mine families always do in the tragedies of man's fight to tap the earth. Throne sings "Red River Valley." Fellin is a "Penn sylvania Polka" man. His wife, Anna, 47, sad-eyed but composed, has watched at the surface every day. "They'll get Davey out -I know they will," she says. Face Long Odds But Fcllin's brother, Joseph, 61 and Just retired, says he figures there is about a 100-to-l chance and he adds: "We both should have given up mining years ago - only reason you don't is that it's the only place to go."

Opan Evening and Sundays AT THI MO Y SHOPPING CENTER Graham Speaks at LA Youth Meeting Los Angeles - lliril - Evan gelist Billy Graham used the Biblical story of Samson at a youth meeting Thursday night to illustrate the need ot par ental guidance. Speaking at the seventh ses sion of his 21-day Los An geles crusade, Graham also said that sometimes "over privileged" children cause more trouble than those from slum areas. The evangelist told 47,655 persons - the largest crowd to date - that Samson had "a parental problem," explain ing: "Samson s parents tried to advise him and guide him, but Samson was determined to have his own way, to go against his parents' advice. "Even good parents present a problem to many teen-agers who want to go their own way and live their own lives without any interference or advice. The Bible teaches plainly that we are to honor our father and mother. The Scripture says: 'Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right.' " Helicopter Crew Recovers Body Mount Shasta. Calif. - iWD -A helicopter crew Thursday 1 recovered the body of a U.S. Forest Service employee who fell 300 feet to his death down a glacier near the top of 14,-161-foot Mt. Shasta. Die body of Bill Mikm of Glenwalk, N.J., was brought to the Ml. Shasla Ski Bowl at 7,700 (ret by a turbojet 'copter of the lljerlai;er Heli copter Service at nearby Etna. Mikm fell Wednesday while climbing with Stephen Toll man. Both were employed at the Lassen National Forest in northeast California. PROPOSES NEW SYMBOL Pratt, Kan. - iVPli - Stale Democratic Chairman Jack G laves said Thursday night the Democrats of Kansas should exchange their tradi tional donkey for a coyote. "All we Democrats have been doing," Glaves said, "is sit ting on our rear ends and howling at the moon." An expert on the surface, Lt. Richard Anderson of the Naval Research Institute, says he thinks they can hold out a long time. "It's a tribute to their guts that they haven't given up by now. That's always the worry. But these are pretty tough characters." You drive out along a dirt road to the outskirts of the village of Sheppton, Pa., through the anthracite coun try, wooded, hillyi with a scattering of dirty shacks. You stop about 300 yards from the mine shaft where the cave-In trapped the men 11 days ago. As you walk to the roped off area where the high speed drills have been prob ing to find the trapped men with rescue shafts, you notice fine gray dust afloat and spread around. This is the pulverized stone from below, dug up and shot out as the drill works. The res cue workers are masked to protect their lungs. Dust Piled High Some workers shovel it away from the machinery; it's three to four feet deep in some places. The drills make a pound ing clanking noise. Near dusk Thursday, in order to lower radioactive cobalt to see if the two could use a gciger counter to detect how close a misscd-mark shaft was, the big drill suddenly stopped. Dead silence. The observers looked stunned for a moment. You could hear birds twittering far off. It might have been some kind of irony. Because a ra dio station man had sent a query down the long line to Fellin, 331 feet away. "Hey, Davey, what kind of music do you like?" he spoke into the mike. "I want to hear the birdies sing," came Fellin's voice grating out of the two loudspeakers at the shaft top. Then he broke again Into "Pennsylvania Polka." "How's that announcer they had to take to the hospital?" Fellin asked an nouncer Elwood Tito, at the top. Tito: "He's fine. He went to the hospital because he wanted to see the nurses." Throne: "I tell you, we made a lot of trouble for a lot of people, didn't we?" Tito: "That's okay, Dave." Throne: "No, this is Hank." Tito: "Did your voice change?" Hank: "No, I'm just get ting a little older." Hank: "Any candy bars coming down?" Tito: "Yes, we're sending some." Hank: "Good for a little snack." Tito: "Do you want the plain or with nuts?" Hank: "That's the trou ble. No nutty ones. I had to take my teeth out, that's why you didn't recognize my voice." The crowd of 300 above laughed at this. There is a lot of joking up there. The Salvation Army was busy handing out snacks. Biologists Issue Plea in Behalf of Vanishing Species Washington - IUPII - Biolo gists Issued a plea today in behalf of "vanishing species." They addressed It to earth's fiercest predator, man. They appealed to his economic self interest, to his moral sense, and to the delight and scien tific knowledge he derives from creatures of the wild. Nature has been 'evolving different forms of life for something like three billion years. Nature itself has doom ed the great majority of spe cies of extinction. But It has let about 3,500 species of mammals, includ ing man, and 8.000 species of birds survive to the pres ent. In recent times the great extinguisher has been not na ture but man. Man Is The Villain In a symposium al the 16th international congress of zoology scientists said that in 99.9 per cent of the tragedies which wipe out whole species today, man is the villain. He kills off Irreplaceable animal types cither by direct slaughter or by destruction of habitats through stream pollu tion, the felling of forests, or Indiscriminate use of poisons. Many of the 1,500 species of mammal In Africa are in dnnger. But the new African states are trying to save some of them. There are sound eco nomic grounds for doing so. In Africa, scientists have discovered, wild animals prop erly husbanded, can provide hungry man with more pro tein food on marginal lands than cattle grazing the same areas can produce. Wa Don't Own World In the opinion of Ian Mc Taggart Cowan of the Univer sity of British Columbia, Van couver, there is a far more compelling reason for trying to save species now in jeo pardy. Said Cowan: "Wc don't own the world. We hold a life rental on it. It is our responsibility to turn it over to our descendants in at least as good condition as when we got it, preferably better." So far man has destroyed 100 mammal and more than 100 bird species. In danger are 55 mammal, 100 fish. 48 bird, and six reptile species.
