Ohio's top union official predicted yesterday that the "silent majority" of miners would ratify the contract.

Nobody does and nobody ever will." Bill Cray, vice president of local 1957 in Ohio's Vinton county said he felt the contract should be rejected. "Need a Good Contract" "I know everybody is hungry and all that." said Cray. "But I still think they realize the need for a good contract.

We have to try and vote this one down." In West Virginia, a powerful union state where no coal was moving and more than 55,000 other workers have been idled by the strike, district union officers said they had doubts about the contract.

Stock Sb tiosiery Dep feaggflgS' Mam Floor Associated Press onoto I1 FAMOUS MAKER HANDBAGS Washington (Special) The Senate rejected yesterday another attempt t3 block ratification of the Panama Canal treaties by adding amendments that would require renegotiation. By a vote of 69 to 24, the Senate defeated a proposal by Sen.

William Scott (R-Va.) to combine the two treaties one safeguarding U.S. defense rights and the other turning the canal over to Panama so that neither could take effect without the other. As the Senate debated yesterday, an Associated Press-NBC news poll showed that support for the canal treaties, even if amended, has eroded in recent weeks, but a majority of Americans familiar with the pacts still express support for Senate ratification.

Scott acknowledges that he opposes the treaties, but he insisted his sole purpose was to clarify the relationship between the two documents, not to force a new Panama plebiscite. Resentment in Panama Most supporters doubt that the treaties could survive a second vote in Panama where the treaties as they stand have been approved by popular vote because of the resentments already aroused by the long U.S. ratification process. Yesterday's Senate vote appeared on the surface favorable to treaty proponents. On Monday the Senate had rejected another amendment that would have allowed the U.S.

to keep troops in Panama 20 years beyond the turnover date. But the vote to kill the resolution on Monday 55 to 34 suggested that ratification was still in doubt.

Halpern said he was highly optimistic that the grant would come through. "This is not a giveaway to a builder," said Halpern. "Portman will have to pay the city back plus interest."
