Truman’s Prime Interest Now [Steen Found Is To Get Construction Going Million Dollar On His Million Dollar Library|Uranium Vein By ERNEST B. VACCARO INDEPENDENCE, Mo. (#—The presidency and all its trials seemed countless years and miles away today as Harry and Bess Truman drifted slowly back into the simple routine of a small Mid- western town. Truman himself, after nearly eight years working 17 hours a day, was not having an easy time of it settling down to a life with no crises to confront. Finding a new job that would not clash with the dignity and honors of his former high office and getting things unpacked at the big white frame home on North Delaware Street made up two of his biggest problems. In addition, there was a mounting pile of mail pouring into his. private office in Kansas City. But for a restless man like the former President, accustomed to seeing callers all day long, sign- ing his name 600 times a day, surveying the whole international picture every morning before breakfast and directing the biggest government in the world, this seemed hardly enough to occupy the long hours. And the hours are always long for a farm-raised boy who in- variably gets up before 7 a.m. Whether he will get away for that long rest he has promised himself depends on when he can make arrangements that will dove- tail with the singing engagements of his daughter Margaret. Later on, after a lot of other problems are out of the way, he may take trip abroad but that still is in the discussion stage. His prime interest now is to get construction started on the 1% mil- lion dollar library, cultural and re- search center on the family farm at nearby Grandview where his J. Vivian Truman, his sis- ter, Miss Mary Jane Truman, and his nephews still live. Truman took reporters out to the farm yesterday for a visit.

But the reporters were even more im- pressed with the ex-President’s sis- ter-inlaw, whom Truman calls Luella. For, while they stood there basking in the aroma of her old- fashioned kitchen, she pulled out, fresh and hot from the oven, one of the finest coffee cakes they had ever tasted. And while they and the ex-Pres- ident munched on the coffee cake, this Midwestern housewife, with the ample apron, checked the oven before pulling out four loaves of freshly-b@ked white bread.

(#—Mrs. Ottilie Silver, 64, has the divorce she asked for, but she'll have to pay 35-year-old Charles Silver $150 monthly alimony and $500 attorney fees. Silver’s lawyer declared his cli- a member of a wealthy family, and argued that under California law the spouse who has the money is required to support the other. The court gave Silver until next Monday to get out of their apart- ment. The couple wed in 1951, after annulment of a previous mar- 23. riage.

M. ® — Charlie Steen, 33-year-old geologist who found a million dollar vein of uranium last July, says he owed $300 for groceries the day he struck it rich. “I was too poor to buy a geiger counter when I staked out my claim on the land facing Big Indian Valley’ in Southeastern Utah,” he said. “But I knew I'd be either a millionaire or nothing.” Steen stopped in Albuquerque en route home from a. vacation in Mexico and told reporters in an interview of finding the pitch- blende vein which he says is con- servatively valued at over a mil- lion dollars. “We aren’t even touching the top | grade supply yet, but we are able to ship 30 to 40 tons of ore a day | to the U.

It was‘ rough going right to the last for himself, his wife and their feur young sons, he said. “My wife and four sons had a worse time than I.
