But in Korea, q spokesman for

Because q 1899 narcotic law
conviction was set aside last
month, . man yesterday OBJ
tanned q reduction in a 1858
sentence for narcotic law viola
tons.
He is Allen (Turk) williams,
who is in his SOS. In 1858,
Williams was sentenced by Fed
eral Judge David A. Pine to
serve from 8 to 10 years for mar
cotic law violations. as one Of
several defendants in what the
prosecution commended was a
narcotic ring.
At the time Of the 1858 SEN
fencing by Judge Pine. it was
said that Williams earlier con-
viction. now set aside. was taken
into consideration in connection
with the new sentence.
Yesterday, Judge Pine re-
duced the sentence to 40 months
to 10 years. pointing out that
Williams 1899 conviction had
been set aside last month.
Although Williams had served
his, time on the 1899 conviction,
for which he had been given
from 4 months to 2 years, Judge
Luther w. Youngdahl in May
set that conviction aside. The
Judge upheld q contention that
Williams had been deprived OF
effective assistance Of counsel
at the 1899 trial.
Judge Youngdahl had held q

pointed attorney. Joseph Levin

ATOMIC TEST SITE, New,
June 20 R.-Five men who dis
armed Q dud atomic weapon say
their ticklish task was nothing
more than q routine Job"
The five were dealing yester-
day with Q nuclear device with
the potential blasting power Of
about 10000 tons Of INT.
But In q news conference last
night the team insisted that It
was simply "the reverse Of arm
ing the device.
"Just out Of breath" was the
way Forest Fairbrother described
his feelings when he reached the
top Of the 500-foot defamation
tower after o. 35-minute climb
equivalent to scaling O 50-story
building.
Mr.. Fairbrother and Bernard
Carney Rubin Of the Univer-
sity Of California Livermore Ra-
diation Laboratory and DR.. Rob-
ert Burton Of the Acc Sandia
Laboratory at Albuquerque, N.
Mex, went to the top Of the
tower after the device failed to
fire.
Two Remain at Base
Walter Arnold Of Lvermore
and Edward r. Tucker Of an
Instrumentation company re-
manned at the base Of the tower,
checking instruments.
All five emphasized that dis
arming is automatically the duty
Of the arming party. They armed
the weapon in the early morning
hours yesterday. DR.. Burton has
armed at least IS nuclear devices
at the Nevada test site.
I'VE have to have electrical
power to detonate 8 Device" DR..
Burton said. I'VE knew the
power was on at the control
point and on at the monitoring
station" The latter is two miles
from ground zero.

Atomic Disorming 7 cam
Refuses Role Of Heroes

DR.. Burton did the actual dis
arming by disconnecting two
power cables at the point where
they entered the weapon.
Mr.. Rubin said there was q
very. very slight hazard" In
that the trigger" had been
pulled on this device. Previously
the Acc said there was "only
about one chance in q million"
that the device would explode
after power failure. How an ex-
plosion could occur was not ex-
planned.
This was the third misfire
here. The others were on Oc.
tober 10. 1851. and May 20,
1852.
Connection Severed
The ACC said yesterdays
failure occurred because q crane
used to remove the elevator
from the tower severed q con-
uection Of the power cable.
The acc said this II not ex-
pected to happen again because
an interlocking system win be
installed for monitoring the
power line to the device itself.
The Marine Corps announced
last night that an exercise. with
the ground and air maneuvers
essentially unchanged. is now
planned for next Wednesday
when the next defamation Is
scheduled. This is expected to
be the biggest Of the 1857 test
