Rusk 10 Sign
Partial Treaty
In Moscow
West, Russiu See
Further Progress
To Quiet Tension

MOSCOW, July Is (AP.-
A partial nuclear test ban
agreement was initiated today
and Averell Hartman an
nounced it will be signed in
Moscow next week by foreign
ministers of Britain, the Soviet
Union and the United States.
Mr.. Hartman, the chief
United States negotiator. BRIT
ish Science Minister Lord Hail
sham and Soviet Foreign Min
lister Andrei Gromyko hailed
the agreement banning nuc,ear
weapons tests in the air, outer
space and under water.
Mr.. Hartman told reporters
the treaty will be signed by
Secretary of State Rusk, Britc
ish Foreign Secretary Lord
Home and Mr.. Gromyko at
next weeks ceremony.
The three spokesman an
nouneed the action on the pact
after a three-hour meeting at
the Foreign Ministry reception
hall in Spiridonovka Palace.
'very Important Work"
Mr.. Hartman told reporters
they had completed "a very
important work"
Mr.. Gromyko commented:
"The end has been successful.
Let us consider this as a basis
for further steps,"
Said Lord Hailsham: at is
the beginning of many good
things"
An announcement released
simultaneously in Washington,
London and Moscow said the
three delegations agreed that
the test ban treaty is an i'm
portant first step toward re-
ducing international tension
and the strengthening Of peace
"and they look forward to
further progress in this direc-
ton"
It also said the three govern
ments viii inform their allies
about discussions on the Soviet
proposal for a non-aggreSsion
pact and consult with them
about negotiating such a pact.
The treaty was initiated IN
three separate copies-each
passed to all the others so that
they we're signed, in a sense,
simultaneously.
The three were seated at a
large round table and ex-
changed some banter while the
correspondents watched.
Reporters, who had waited
for more than four hours in the
street after being called in to
witness the final ceremony,
asked Mr.. Gromyko why had it
taken so long. He replied:
I'VE made plans for the
future"
Other Divisive Issues
This presumably was a
reference to other issues divid-
ing the East and West.
Premier Khrushchev, for ex-
ample. wants the agreement
followed quickly by a nom
aggression pact between the
Atlantic Alliance and its Com
munist equivalent, the Warsaw
Pact powers.
For a time it was feared that
this question might hold up the
initiating Of the limited test
ban agreement. Mr.. Hartman
and Lord Hailsham were
authorized only to negotiate on
the test ban.
Earlier i'll the day, experts Of
the three powers met and
made some last-minute revf-
sions. This caused some sur
prise, since the draft was re-
ported in final form yesterday.
The initiating climaxed 10
days Of negotiations. -
Pact's Handling
There was no immediate
word on exactly how a Russian
request for a non-aggression
pact between the North Allan
tic Alliance and the Communist
states Of the Warsaw Pact had
been handled.
Western negotiators sought
to prevent this issue from de-
laying the initiating Of the test
ban agreement.
Both Mr.. Hartman and Lord
Hailsham came to Moscow with

BY BETTY JAMES

other posts today as the Com
missioners approved a reorgan-
ization of the food program.
The Commissioners also ap-
proved a regulation to govern
private drivers who deliver food
to the needy. At the heart of
the regulation Is the stipulation
that drivers be licensed as So
licitorS by the city's Department
Of Licenses and Inspections.
The changes were recon-
mended by Acting Welfare Di-
rector Donald D. Brewer.
The surplus food program
was investigated by the Dis
trict Internal Audit Office and
the United States Agriculture
Department after charges of
abuses in the program involv-
ing exploitation Of the needy
by the drivers who delivered
the food and collision between
welfare personnel and the
drivers. Two employees resigned
after admitting close involve
ment with some drivers.
Divides Program
In effect, today's action
breaks up the surplus food
division as an entity within
the Welfare Department. Re-
sponsibility for the program
is now divided between the

Rail Strike Off 80 Days,
Lines Yield to Congress
Firms to Delay
Job Cuts, Wait
For Legislation
BY LEE M. COIN
Star Staff Writer

The threat Of q Nationwide
railroad strike was postponed
today until August 20 when
management agreed to delay
next weeks scheduled show
down over work rules.
Yielding to congressional
pressure, the railroads an
nounced they will wait 30 extra
days to impose the job-cutting
rules, which were to 60 into
effect at 1901 am. next Tues
day.
Daniel p. LOOMS, president
of the Association of Ameri-
can Railroads, opened his
testimony before the House
Commerce Committee today by
saying:
I'm response to the requests
by the chairmen Of the House
and Senate committees, and in
order to cooperate with the
Congress Of the United States,
the American railroads have
agreed to a 30-day extension"
of the effective date of the
new rules, until 1901 am,
August 30.
Tension Eases
Tension in the hearing room
broke perceptibly when Mr..
LOOMS made his announce
ment.
Committee Chairman Harris,
Democrat of Arkansas, thanked
Mr.. LOOMS and said the ex-
tension should give Congress
plenty of time to act on anti
strike legislation under normal
procedures, rather than under
the pressure Of an imminent
deadline.
Mr.. Harris and acting Chair
man Pastore of the Senate
Commerce Committee had
asked the railroads for the
30-day extension. They had
said it would be impossible for
Congress to complete action on
legislation before the Tuesday
deadline.
Congress had to make the
request for postponement Of
the showdown because Presi-
dent Kennedy pledged July 10
that the administration would
ask the railroads for no fur.
ther delays.
Decision Made This Morning
The AAR board made the
decision to grant the extension
at a meeting early this morn
ing.
If the railroads had refused
to postpone the showdown,
Sen ate Democratic Leader
Mansfield and Republic a n
Leader Dirksen would have in
troduced a resolution putting
Congress on record as urging
a 30-day delay.
This would have increased
pressure on the railroads,
which have adopted q policy
Of accepting all recommended
tons by the Government in the
labor dispute.

Furrier School For Natives Is Proposed to BlA

Martin Victor, prominent Fair banks furrier, has proposed that a full scale school to train Natives in the handling and processing of fur products be set up in Alaska. Victor is asking the Bureau of h. dian Affairs to pay the tuition and living costs of a select group of h. dians and Eskimos so they can at tend the school.
 He has volunteered the space, equipment and time to make the school a reality.
 Natural Industry
 "The handling of furs from raw material to a finished product would be a natural industry for a great number of Native Alaskans,' Victor told the Tundra Times.
 And we don't need million dol lar facility to begin with he en- phasized.
 Victor basically proposes that the school be set up in six sections with about eight weeks required to learn each section.

Future scholars will be indebted to Dr. Michael Krauss, University of Alaska linguistics professor, for research he is conducting on a near ly extinct language.
 Krauss, 29, has been working with the survivors of the Eyak 1n- dian tribe, which is the smallest and least known in Alaska With fewer than 10 members left who can speak the Eyak language, and they are elderly Only three are fluent.
 Dr. Krauss started his research in 1861 and immediately recognized the urgency of his task.

Among the more rewardine
sights witnessed by the Navy
coaching staff Saturday, a day
in which they witnessed many
was that of Tackle Dick Mer-
rift levelling Tom Yeater.
Yeater, q West Virginia half
back, was one of the principal
reasons why the Mountaineers
were supposed to be an Eastern
power. On that dismal after
noon Yeater took a handoft
from Quarterback Jerry Yost,
sped across Merritt's bow and
headed for the sideline.
In a stern chase Merritt
caught up, and that is one rea-
son why Navy won a SIT VIC
tory and leaped to fifth place
in the national polls.
1t wasn't so much that Mer-
rift tackled Yeater, because as
a tackle he's supposed to
tackle. But tackles aren't sup
posed to catch up with half
backs when they're stepping in
the halfback'S footprints.
Fastest Lineman
Merritt isn't an ordinary
tackle. Until spring drills start
ed in March, he was a rather
ordinary fullback. But with the
entire interior line Of 1862
Quilted by graduation, Wayne
Hardin, the Navy coach, would
have given a 230-pound par
cheesi player a trial at tackle.
As far as is known Merritt
doesn't play parcheesi, but he
has played football - all Of 1t
as a fullback until this season
- and he is a sprinter. He has
run the 220 In track and is the
fastest lineman on the Navy
squad.
He's also strong, which can
