Friday, July 21 W. AverMHfirrunan Looks WASHINGTON (UPI) Elder statesman W. Averell Harriman, who twice during a crowded lifetime sought his a i i a nomination, is a delegate to the Democratic National i a a enthusiastic Jimmy Carter man for an uncommon reason. Harriman; 84, a former New Dealer, ambassador, New York governor and aide to every Democratic president -since a i D. Roosevelt, has met Carter 2 Mine Ponies In Last Trip W.Va.

(UPI) The soft click-click of Earl Barnett's tongue, bidding the two ponies out of the coal mine, shaft for'the final time', marked the end of an era. State and federal mine inspectors said Barnett's Melva Mining Tunnelton Mine was the last to use mine ponies in West Virginia. They i a mechanical coal buggies. ''I knew I would have to.do it eventually," said Barnett. "If it wasn't for the longer, haul I'd stay with the ponies." Barnett expects the mine's production to triple.

He also planned to deepen his mine by 3,000 feet. His teams were able to haul coal carts weighing as much' as 4,500 poun'ds over the 1,000 feet of tracks inside the mine. No.w, the steel -machines will be-able to cart much more coal in less time. The Gulf Intracoastal Waterway, extending from Apalachee to the Mexican border, is 1,137 miles. only once when Carter, already almost sure of his party's nomination, met the New York delegation to cons i a i Harriman was neutral'until then.

Now thinks Car- 1 ter's experiences aboard the Navy's nuclear submarines gives him an appreciation shared by few in public life of the atom's potential for the destruction of the human species, "It takes a nuclear expert to thoroughly understand the of nuclear disaster," Harriman said in an interview. He received his visitor in a sunny room overlooking the formal garden of his home in Georgetown, a a block from the hurly-burly of. Wisconsin Avenue where the' flower children have entrepreneurs and are. busy; selling tin jewelery and leather belts to each other. a i a says a control is the paramount issue of these times even if nobody in politics is talking about it much.

"This a time when -the Russians want it," he.said. He negotiated the limited nuclear test ban treaty signed by the Americans, the British- and the Russians in 1963. Like many Harriman sounds like he takes a i granted. Is there a danger of- overconfidence, of a smug Carter losing in 1976 like a smug Tom Dewey lost to Harry Truman in 1948' Harriman-, "Carter is too smart for that and Harry is not running this year Harriman is.on.a experts, which advises Carter foreign policy. meet occasionally and exchange comments on draft Carter speeches circulated among themselves in the mail.

Harriman looks hale. He behaves like men his age dp -pacing himself, walking stiffly, and with great caution. He says he. expects to campaign for candidate Carter. His first campaigning occurred in 1944, when he came home from Moscow to buy 15 minutes on a nationwide radio (for $5,000, he recalls) to.

ask the nation to elect Franklin D. Roosevelt to' a fourth term. Harriman says he is pleased Carter has plenty of time to deliberate about a vice presidential nominee. He would not alter the system, he says, to let the choice be made by anyone but the candidate. 'Harriman was ambassador.

to 'Russia in 1944, but even there he was aware, he says, that contrary to the current popular impression the decision to Henry a a a i a Truman was not casually made; months of consideration went into it. a a a Harriman says. "Wallace dreamer," he says, a touch of impatience in his voice. Harriman himself sought the presidency in 1952 and, more seriously, in 1956, when he was governor of New In 1952 in Chicago, he was one of placed in nomination. Estes Kefauver led on the first ballot with 340 Gov.

Adlai E. Stevenson, a reluctant candidate but the party leaders' choice, was second with Sen. Richard Russell, the South's favorite, had 261 and Harriman. had After an indecisive, second ballot, Harriman withdrew in of Stevenson and the stampede was on. In 1956, Stevenson won on the first ballot with 905 'A votes to 210 for Harriman and 80 for Sen.

Lyndon B. Johnson, D-Tex. a a i of Harriman's public life has involved elective office. The son of a railroad tycoon, who exercised control over 60,000 miles of trackage at the time of his death in' 1909, Harriman. left business to work in 'FDR's National Recovery Administration in 1934.

World War II, he was Roosevelt's expediter of lendlease to Russia and Great Britain, and he served as ambassador to Moscow during the war and to London in 1946. He was Truman's commerce secretary and later director of the Mutual Security Agency. In 1954 he elected governor of New York but was defeated for reelection by Nelson A. Rockefeller in 1958. He served as John F.

Kennedy's arms negotiator, undersecretary of and negotiator of a Laos cease- fire. For Lyndon Johnson (and Hubert Humphrey, hampered by the Vietnam albatross as he ran for president in 1968) he stayed in Paris from May, 1968 to January, 1969, trying but failing to negotiate a Vietnam peace.
