Atheist Demands Closing
OF ABC Radio Network
BY the Assoeiutsd Press

An atheist yesterday asked the
Government to close down Ameri-
can Broadcasting Co. radio sta
tions temporarily because they
presented a play allegedly Of
fenSive to non-believers. @-ges
The petition was filed with the
Federal Communications Commits
sion by Robert Harold Scott Of
Palo Alto, Calf, who has cam
paigned for years to get a place
for atheistic views on the air. !.
Mr.. Scott, in his complaint
against ABC, charged that the
network broadcast a play called
"Blasphemy" on November IL,
1851, which the Californian said
was IAN outright attack upon
atheism as point of view and
upon atheists as q class"
The action of the play, he said,
involved the killing of an atheist
under circumstances implying
divine Intervention.
The petition asserted that Mr..
Scott had tried. without success,
to get time on the ABC network
to answer the play on grounds
that it involved a public con-
troversy requiring both pro and
con presentation.
The network, he said. has taken
the position that the play, orig
mated at Toronto, Canada, was
offered strictly as entertainment,
not as controversy.
Mr.. Scott asked the FEC to
order the network to make the
requested time available and to
penalize ABC by revoking its oper-
ating licenses for a limited period.

Reds Demand Russia
Be Allowed 10 Inspec'
Secret Allied Arms
BY shs A.soeiat.d ps.s.

MUNSON. Korea, Mar. 6,The
deadlocked Korean truce talks
begged down even further today
as Communist negotiators insisted
that neutral teams including Rus
slams be permitted to inspect secret
equipment during an armistice.
Staff officers working on truce
supervision wrangled fruitlessly
for more than an hour, but the
Prisoner Exchange Subcommittee
called it a day after only IL min

The deadlock has become so
serious observers here said they
believe only action at the top level
could end the stalemate. "
United Nations negotiators de-
clined to speculate on how the
deadlock might be broken. Some
sources said the situation presum-
ably is being studied carefully in
Washington, and possibly in Mos
cow and Peiping.
Vice Admiral C. Turner Joy,

Tokyo yesterday, apparently for
conferences with Gen. Matthew B.

There was no hint that a shift

Col. Don o. Darrow told news
men the Communist demand for
inspection Of secret equipment
might be "just another needing
device" But he added:
"1f they could get Russian teams
down to look at our equipment,
that would be highly desirable
from their point of view"
The Allied proposal provides
that neutral teams should make
inspections to properly insure"
that neither side is introducing
new equipment during q truce.
However. the proposal specifies
that the teams would not be al
lowed to check secret designs or
characteristics of any combat air.

REPORT SAYS.
us. Armed Forces
Segregation Decreasing

Anna M. Rosenberg, assistant
secretary of defense.
The report sent to Sen. Hubert
H. Humphrey ID. Minn.) stated
that the all-Negro units in the
Army at present are approximate
ly one-third fewer than those Of
year ago, and the decline is
continuing. Racial designation has
been progressively removed from
1874 units throughout the army.
There was only one Air Force
unit which was predominantly
manned by Negro personnel as of
June 80. This units strength was
SO officers and airmen, of whom
90 were Negro personnel. At that
time the total number of air force
units comprising some Negro per-
Sonnel had increased to more than
5000.
"At the present time there is
no segregation in the navy or
marine corps and the equality of
treatment of all races and creeds
has been amply demonstrated in
both the navy and the marine
corps, especially during the pres
ent Korean action" the report
stated.
Mrs. Rosenberg reported that in
March, 1851 individual integra-
ton had been accomplished in all
military schooling and in most
training divisions. A few Negro
units had been made organic
parts of larger White units. Since
that time integration has been
accomplished in all training di-
visions and in replacement train
ing centers throughout the United
States, she said.

Mr.. Spearman's race is replete

Charles Kingsford was the ac-
companist, his work being par
tlcularly noticeable in the inter-

Mr.. Spearman's singing of
Negro folklore was rather strik-
ing. His happy choice was Fred

OF which he made exit from the
stage a la Roland Hayes in 'Roun'
de Mountain. In these the real
characteristics of Negro folk
