TRUSTEESH|PS GET TENTATIVE
 BIGF|vEOkAY
BY R. H. SHACKFORD

San Francisco, June g. (UP) - The United Nations Conference hurdled another major obstacle to adjourn ment early today when a committee tentatively ap- proved a Big Five plan for trusteeships.
 The revised trusteeship system specifics as one of it's objectives the promotion of "the freely expressed wishes of the peoples concerned. " It also includes a special guarant ee against any freeze" of the status quo in present mandated territories.
 The two provisions, written into the plan at Russian insistence, served to end a two-week deadlock on the trusteeship section of the world charter Shortly after receiv- ing Moscow's approval of the re- vised plan, the committee went into an extraordinarily long session that ended after midnight with vir- tual completion of a trusteeship working paper.
 The system approved by the com- NitSee would guarantee Russia and China permanent seats on the trus- teeship council whether or not they ever hold any trustee areas.
 It was the second day in row that belated word from Moscow on a conference issue made more likely the possibility of an early adjourn ment. Russia's change of mind on the controversial veto issue Thurs day stimulated new move to com- plete the world charter between June 16 and 20.
 Conference officials hinted that unless the charter is completed and ready to sign within two weeks, President Truman might De unable to attend the final ceremonies. Of- ficials began prodding the 12 con- ference committees to clean up their unfinished business and went to the unusual length of scheduling the most important remaining commit tee meeting-on the veto issue-for tonight at 8:30 p. m. It was the first time during the conference that a Saturday night meeting has been scheduled.
 The last remaining major issue for conference debate is on the Yal- ta voting formula. That begins this morning when a subcommittee con- siders the interpretation of the for mula submitted by the Big Five yesterday.
 Australian Foreign Minister Her bert V. Evatt is ready to lead the little nations fight against the for mula. u is conceded in advance, however, that the conference will adopt it as approved by the late President Roosevelt, Prime Minister Winston Churchill and Marshall Jo- sci Stalin at Yalta in February.
 Members of the trusteeship com mittee were greatly encouraged when they left the committee room early this morning. Only a few minor items remain to be consid- cred and it was thought that the final okay on the trusteeship sys- tenn could be given early next week.
 Russia's demand for mention of the principle of self determination and a guarantee against freezing the status quo of present mandates had prevented earlier agreement. Both issues finally were solved by new language.
 Instead of specifically stating self 6stsrmination of peoples as an ob- 3cClve of the trusteeship system, A6 committee chose language from he Atlantic Charter-promotion of ,he freely expressed wishes of the neoples concerned"
