Turkish news papers put the death toll at 2,000 but this was an unreliable guess.

Offers of help were pouring in from around the world. The International Red Cross in Geneva sent urgently needed tents and blankets for homeless victims living in the open on the high plain near Erzurum where the first frosts of fall have already been felt. Pope Paul VI announced a "personal offering" for urgent aid to the survivors but the amount was not known. He sent his condolences as well. The Italian government asked government agencies and charitable organizations to organize help.

Sweden, France and Switzerland also offered help. Premier Suleyman DemeriJ flew to this stricken mountain province of Anatolia to inspect the widespread damage and assume command of rescue operations. Semi official reports said at least 17 villages the four provinces of Erzurum, Bingol, Mus and Bitlis were levelled by the quake. U.S. cargo planes flew medical supplies, doctors and nurses from American bases in Turkey to aid in the monumen-tl task of tending the injured.

An entire 36-bed American hospital was flown to the region from Ankara. U.S. authorities ordered all American military doctors in the Turkish capital to report for duty as part of the massive effort to rescue persons trapped in buildings leveled by the quake. American medical equipment an I sup; were airlifted, in U.S. flying cargo carriers to the area including an entire 36-bed hospital from Ankara.

On European bases, U.S. Air Force officials were ready to fly in more planes if Turkish authorities called for more Army troops in the Erzurum area were aiding rescue parties. Official commandeered all vehicles in the area and converted them to makeshift ambulances. Temperatures By United Press International By FRANK SWOBODA WASHINGTON (UPI) -The five airlines idled by the nation's biggest aviation strike were back in action today, building as quickly as possible to normal schedules expected Monday. One of them, Trans World Airlines (TWA), became embroiled in a secondary labor dispute arising shortly after the 43-day machinists strike was settled Friday.

But it was settled within a few wars. The five lines Eastern, United, National, Northwest and TWA pressed supervisory personnel into service late Friday to prepare planes for the resumption of normal Sights. They were checking out the aircraft in accordance with special Civil Aeronautics (Board (CAB) regulations intended to make sure the more than 800 grounded planes were in safe flight condition after their long idleness. Official Announcement The strike ended near the end of its 43rd day Friday night when P. L.

(Roy) Siemiller, president of the International Association of Machinists, announced that rank and file machinist union members had ratified the latest contract offer by a vote of 17,727 to 8,235. "The strike is now over," Siemiller said. "We are sincere ly sorry for the inconvenience the strike caused." Throughout Friday, the struck lines began, notifying furioughed employes to be ready to return to work. About 35,400 strikers and 30,000 other airline workers were idled by the strike. The back to work vote by the rank and file was a victory for the union's national leadership, which was slapped in the face by the members July 31 with the rejection of a settlement worked out at the White House.

Two to One Thoueh the overall approval was 2 to 1, some locals voted against accepting the latest proposal. The San Francisco local, the union biggest, voted 3,054 to 1,000 to reject the offer after its leadership said there were "shortages the proposal. The contract represents the largest single gain ever made by the union, and one of the largest in labor history. The $92 million, three-year package complately shatters the administration's 3.2 per cent wage guidelines, leaving the door open for every union in the nation to try for major gains. For the machinists the settlement means an extra 56 cents an hour by the end of the contract, a cost of living wage adjustment and increased fringe benefits.

For Siemiller, it was a good settlement, but there' should have been more." He said the members would get the "more" in their next contract. LOS ANGELES The Los Angeles International parking lot is the scene of a monumental traffic jam as people pour into the ticket offices with the announcement that the machinists' strike has been settled. Airlines spokesmen said that most of the flights are booked completely for a week. COMMIES Department AUSTRALIANS PURSUE U.S. Line Of Oil Depots ERZURUM, Turkey (UPI) The U.S.

Opposes Bill WASHINGTON (UPI) -The House Committee on Un-American Activities, stung for a week with the shouts and tumult of hostile witnesses, now faces Justice Department opposition to its bill to prohibit American citizens from giving direct add to the Viet Cong. It was learned today that the department is against the measure on several grounds, among them concern that the bill amounts to an infringement on the constitutional right of free speech and assembly. In addition, the department feels that the bM is unnecessary. It claims existing laws cover the type of activity which prompted Rep.

Joe R. Pool, and other committee members to introduce it. The department outlined its position in a letter to the committee. BULLETIN WITH JOHNSON (UPI) President Johnson said today Communists will attempt to sabotage September elections in South Viet Nam with mounting waves of murder and terror but they will fail. Johnson, speeding through four New England states on a speaking tour, said in a speech prepared for delivery at Manchester, N.

that the "Coram unists do not want these elections to succeed." WITH JOHNSON (UPI) President Johnson warned Negroes today there is no magic sword that can instantly free them from their chains of poverty and deprivation. Riots will only make their plight worse, he said. "The molotov cocktail destroys far more than the police car or the pawn shop," the President said. "It destroys the basis for civil peace and progress." Renewing his warning against street violence by both Negroes and whites, Johnson appealed to Negroes for patience in remarks prepared for an address at the University 1 of Rhode Island. His schedule took him to the Kingston, R.I., campus fcom Ellenville, N.Y., to begin the second day of his northeastern "non-political" trip.

Nearly 1,000 persons greeted Johnson, bis wife and daughter Lynda when their plane set down at Quonset Point, R.I.; Naval Air Station. Lynda flew from Washington this morning with more congressional leaders aboard the presidential jet, Air Force 1 to join her parents. Both Johnson women joined the President in shaking hands of well-wishers along a fence after getting off the plane and before a 15-minute motorcade to the Rhode Island campus. The President in his appeal for an end to big city racial violence said the poor suffer most at rioters' hands. It has been under the "banner of peaceful protest" that great gains have been achieved by Negroes in the past 10 years, he added.

"The fury of bigots and bullies to these gains has only served to strengthen the will of our people that justice be done," Johnson said. "The vivid contrast between lawful assem blies and lawless mobs has spurred our conscience. We have begun to act at last yet we can succeed only in civil peace." He noted that those caught in "the vicious cycle of poverty" and deprivation had stopped whispering their demands and begun to shout. "No one who enjoys ine benefits of our society can say we have done enough to answer them," the President said. But he stressed: "Breaking the chain of poverty wiu require time, and wise planning and a degree of daring experiment and the long-term commitment of our immense resources." The President said, We deceive ourselves and the poor as well, if we imagine there is some magic sword some exca-libur of federal funds-that can cut this chain with one stroke." In his swing through upstate New York Friday, the Pres ident showed the vehemence and verve that marked Ms own campaign for the presidency in 1964.

The White House billed the trip -including stops today at Manchester, N.H., Burling ton, and Lewiston, Me. as "nonpolitical." Johnson, flying from Ellen ville to Rhode Island early today, was to board the U.S.S. Northhampton at Portland, Maine tonight for an overnight cruise.

CR Group Hit By Court Rule CHICAGO (UPI) Civil rights leaders ordered by judge to lay down their biggest weapon the mass, many pronged marches into white neighborhoods will decide today whether to risk going to jail. Dr. Martin Luther King gave every indication he would rather go to jail than to stop the open housing marches which have been met by bloody violence caused by whites who do not want Negroes laving next door.

"I have been in dozens of jails all over the South," said King, "and I'm not afraid to go to jail in Chicago." King called the court action "unjust illegal and unconstitutional." If the veter an civil rights campaigner followed the course of action he pioneered in the South, his next step would be an appeal to federal courts. It was learned that U.S. District Court Judge Joseph Sam Perry would be on hand today for any emergency appeal. Mayor Richard J. Daley ordered the suit for the temporary injunction, saying the thousands of police diverted from crime details to protect the open housing marchers resulted in a 25 per cent increase in crime in the city this summer.

More than 15 flights of Air Force F105 Thundercniefs F104 Milk Shortage Is Threatened PITTSBURGH (UPI) Evidence that a critical milk shortage threatens the 12-coumty Pittsburgh marketing area and that, farmers need a higher return Was presented Friday during a 10-hour emergency Milk Control Commission hearing. The testimony showed a price increase at some level in the industry was almost inevitable but failed to show whether or not the dealer was justified in passing the price increase onto the consumer.

The emergency hearing, which was recessed until Tuesday, was called after two leading dairies, SeaMest and Isaly, raised the price of milk by two cents a quart. Mrs. Marian Finkelhor, assistant city solicitor, maintained "there is a strange irony in rising dealer profits and a continued rise in controlled consumer prices." She agreed that the farmer needied more revenue but questioned whether a change in the type of utilization might not produce more income than a straight price hike. The farmer is paid a "blend price" determined by how much of his milk is used as a fluid (Class I) and how much is made into other products (Class II). Class I commands the higher price.

As much us 88 per cent of the out-of-state milk is utilized here as Class I whale only about 49 per cent of Pennsylvania milk is utilized as Class Mrs. Finkelior said.
