PANMUNJOM, Korea, May 81
(R.-The U. N, command today
clipped the wings of the four
nation commission supervising
the Korean armistice, charging
the Communists have used it as
a blind for an illegal buildup Of
arms in North Korea.
Commission members we're
ordered to halt their operations
in South Korea and pull back
into the neutral zone.
At the same time Britain dis

posal from Red China for a
conference to unite Korea and
withdraw foreign troops.
A British note dispatched to
Peiping on behalf of the l6 said
the Communist governments of
China and North Korea have
provided no evidence of the good
faith needed for such a confer
ence to serve any useful pur-
pose" and accused the Reds OF
frustrating any effective super
vision of the 1854 Geneva arm
iStice agreement.
Reds Plan Arms Cut
North Korea countered with a
broadcast from Pyongyang re-
porting it will discharge 10000
men from its armed forces by
August 81 and calling on South
Korea to follow suit. The Pyong-
yang radio said the reductions
would speed talks on unification.
In another dispatch it reported
Premier Marshal Kim II Sung
has accepted an invitation to
visit Moscow at some time in the
future.
North Korea is estimated to
have about 100000 soldiers of
its own in uniform, in addition
to the many Red Chinese troops
still in the country. South Korea
has an army of about 100000
men.

from the U. N. Command ac-
cused the North Koreans of ar

Czech and Polish members of the
commission covered up illegal
Red activities.
United States Maj. Gen. r.
G, Gard charged the Commu-
nists had used the commission
"as a blind" behind which to
illegally move jet fighters and
other war materiel into North
Korea.
You are no longer privileged
to take advantage of those pro-
visions of the armistice agree
ment which have been violated
and frustrated by your conduct
and that of the Czech and Po-
fish members of the commits
sion," Gen. Gard declared.
North Koreans Hit Charge
His statement was made at a
meeting of the JOINT Military
Armistice Commission. The North
Korean Communists denied the
generals accusations.
Gen. Gard, senior U. N. dele
gate to the armistice commits
sion, said the Communists had
never at any time since the
armistice reported bringing COM
bat aircraft into North Korea,
This is particularly conspicu-
GUS he asserted. since your
side now maintains in North
Korea between 400 and 500 such
aircraft whereas you had
none in that area at the time

North Korean Col. Lo In Hi, in
denying the charges, said.
Your side has unmasked its
attempt to wreck the armistice

MANTEO RED SKINS LOSE
SECOND STRAIGHT GAME

The Manteo Red Skins, in their
first home football game were a
big disappointment to the fans
who witnessed their defeat by
Plymouth Friday night. The Red
Skins went down OPS and were
never any serious threat to the
strong Plymouth team. Coy Til
lett Jr. and st. Clair Basnight,
Jr. were the only offensive lead
ers for Manteo, and Allen Dough
was top defensive man. Coach
Ayers in his comments on the
game, said he did not believe that
his team had improved since the
previous week when they lost to
the Rich Square Red Devils by
$50.
In preparation for the Weeks
vile game Friday night of this
week, the Red Skins have been
hampered by rain. They have been
confined to the gymnasium for
light drills and had only one prac-
tice session outside. Mr.. Ayers
says that he has stressed offense
this week and believes that the
team has improved somewhat in
this respect, also little in de-
tense. The game Friday is at the
Manteo field.
Coach Ayers has made some
changes in the lineup this week
and has released the following
starting team: LIE Mearl Meekins;
1T Ephraim Midget; LG Law
