"Everything is all set for tomorrow morning," he said.

MONEY IS the sticking point in the talks. Chamberlain said. His union began with a demand for a 54 increase in the $3.78 hourly wage for skilled signalmen. He said the union was willing to stretch the term of the contract to the 42 months desired by management, provided enough money is offered. Although the railroads have spoken favorably of a presidential emergency board's recommendation for a 42 increase over 42 months.

Chamberlain said industry bargainers had not formally offered that package. He declined to say what management's last offer had been. WASHINGTON (AP) Government-mediated talks between the rail industry and the signalmen's union stalled Sunday night with a nationwide strike deadline oniy hours away. "We haven't made any progress, absolutely no progress," said president C. J.

Chamberlain of the AFL-CIO Brotherhood of Railroad Signalmen. "Negotiations are almost at an impasse." Chamberlain said his 13,000 members would walk off the job at 6 a. m. Monday unless agreement is reached in the 20-month-old dispute. Talks proceeded through the day Sunday with Assistant Secretary of Labor W.

J. Usery Jr. mediating between the parties. Chamberlain said talks could continue until the deadline. "We'll stay as long as he wants," the union chief said.

Nixon has used public statements from both living ex-Presidents and exemplified how important the President considers the issue. Meanwhile the Soviet press accused President Nixon of using "pressure, coaxing and other psychological methods" to prevent American troop cutbacks in Europe. Commenting on the Nixon Administration's opposition to the proposal, Tass said, "The White House is undertaking unprecedent-edly large scale efforts these days to torpedo Mansfield's resolution." "The frantic attempts by the Republican administration to create a pro-government bloc in the Senate by way of pressure, coaxing and other phychological methods are explained by the fact that broad segments of the American public support the idea of reducing American troop strength in Western Europe," Tass said. Secretary of State William P. Rogers said Sunday the United States was "very anxious to negotiate a mutual U.

troop withdrawal from Europe and that Ambassador Jacob D. Beam would ask the Russians to elaborate on their call for early negotiations. But Rogers warned against a proposal by Senate Democratic Leader Mike Mansfield to unilaterally slice in half the U. S. garrison in Europe.

"Why should we in the United states reduce unilaterally and thereby kiss goodbye to any chance that we might have to negotiate successfully to reduce the Soviet presence?" Rogers asked. Two Women Die In Fire KEY BISCAYNE, Fla. (UPI) Former President Harry S. Truman, a NATO founder, was added Sunday to the Nixon administration's unprecedented roundup of opposition to a proposed halving of U. S.

forces in Europe. Truman's endorsement of statements issued Saturday by President Nixon and Former President Lyndon B. Johnson was announced by the Florida White House. The White House said the message was relayed by Dean Acheson, who served Mr. Truman as Secretary of State.

Acheson was credited Saturday with enlisting endorsements of Mr. Nixon's position from 24 former diplomatic and defense officials of four previous administrations. "Former President Harry Truman agrees entirely with the statement made by President Nixon and released Saturday morning," the White House announcement said. "He also agrees with the statement issued by former President Lyndon Baines Johnson." Although the White House disclaimed credit for enlisting the statements of support, it released them in a three-part volley aimed at scuttling Senate Democratic Leader Mike Mansfield's amendment to cut U. S.

forces in Europe from 300,000 to 150, by year end. IT MARKED the first time Mr. espite Rescue Effort Midshipmen Dismissed: Used Pot ANNAPOLIS, Md. (AP) The U. S.

A terse statement about the same midshipmen by the academy on Friday said only that five were being dismissed for the use of marijuana and three others were under investigation.

Both boys ran up the staircase and pounded on the other apartment doors. No one answered. They tried to break in the doors as they had on the first floor. But they failed. "Soon the smoke was too heavy and we had to go back down," David said.

As they reached the bottom of the stairs, firemen arrived. "I told the marshal there were people on the third floor," David said. Firemen tried to reach the floor but "the smoke and heat were too great for the men to get in," Second District Fire Marshal Howard Fox told the Enquirer.

The youths, David Sunderhaus, 1230 1 and Drew Raabe, 3420 Lehman were delivering the Sunday Enquirer a block away on Purcell Avenue when they first smelled smoke about 5:45 a. m. and looked for a fire.

"I KNEW I HAD seen people living in the house, so I ran over and knocked on the door and screamed, There was no answer.

David pulled back and kicked the door open. As the two boys charged into the house, Delbert Casada came out into the front room of. the main floor apartment, brushing sleep from his eyes, David said. "What's going on?" Casada demanded. Drew told Casada the house was on fire.
