SCRIPPS COMPANY ENDS TALKS ON SELLING U.P.I. TO REUTERS

The E.W. Scripps Company said yesterday that it was discontinuing talks on selling United Press International, the second-largest news service in the United States, to the London-based Reuters news agency. In a joint statement with Reuters, Edward W. Estlow, the president of Scripps, which owns 95 percent of U.P.I., said in Cincinnati that ''we are continuing exploratory talks with others.'' He had said last month that several unidentified organizations were interested in U.P.I., which had pretax losses of $24 million between 1975 and 1980.

The protracted and politically sensitive investigation into Richard V. Allen's affairs, which has produced the most embarrassing publicity of President Reagan's first year in office, is nearing a turning point. Within a matter of days, Attorney General William French Smith must decide whether to appoint a special prosecutor for Mr. Allen. But Mr. Smith's decision will do little to clarify the question of why the Reagan Administration allowed the Allen affair to drag on for more than two months before acting decisively. One possible explanation for the failure to act quickly is that White House or Justice Department officials have turned up evidence damaging to Mr. Allen that has not yet come to light. Assuming that there is no further evidence, the reasons for the slow response appear to be found within the highest councils of the Justice Department and the White House. At the Justice Department, for example, the Allen affair was originally handled as a routine inquiry until officials there became alarmed that the department might be laying itself open to charges of a ''cover-up.'' The decision by Mr. Smith and his top aides at the Justice Department to order the F.B.I. to renew an investigation that the bureau regarded as completed in October added weeks to the timetable of the Allen affair.
FOR RUSSIANS, A GERMANIST
Date: 01 December 1981
Special to the New York Times
When Yuli Aleksandrovich Kvitsinsky was named this fall as chief Soviet negotiator for the Geneva nuclear arms reduction talks, American officials reacted at first with surprise, and then, after a quick intellectual double-take, with total comprehension. The surprise involved Mr. Kvitsinsky's comparative youth -he is 45 years old - and his apparent status outside the highest levels of the Soviet hierarchy. The insight that immediately followed was this: Moscow had picked a German expert, a man who would be able to address West German public opinion throughout the talks with skill and nuance, and bring an understanding of West German strategic thinking - a factor of capital importance in the discussion of middle-range missiles - to the negotiating table and the corridors beyond. Mr. Kvitsinsky had worked, until his appointment here, as minister counselor, or second man, in the Soviet Embassy in Bonn. Before that he had been an important behind-the-scenes figure in constructing the four-power agreement on Berlin more than a decade ago. He served in the Soviet Embassy in East Berlin and received a doctor of law degree with a thesis on West Berlin. He speaks impeccable German and is the kind of man, according to a diplomat who saw him often in Bonn, ''who can and will recite sections of the West German Constitution to you by heart.''
News Summary; WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 2, 1981
Date: 02 December 1981
International The investigation on Richard V. Allen will now focus on an inaccurate financial disclosure statement that Mr. Allen, President Reagan's national security adviser, has filed with the White House. The Justice Department said it had closed its inquiry into Mr. Allen's receipt of $1,000 from a Japanese magazine, adding that it had found no evidence of criminal wrongdoing and that there was thus no reason to appoint a special prosecutor in the matter. (Page A1, Column 6.) All 178 people aboard were killed as a chartered Yugoslav DC-9 jetliner crashed into a mountain while approaching an airport in Corsica that pilots list as unsafe. (A12:4-6.)

Date: 01 December 1981
International An American-Israeli agreement that strengthens their strategic cooperation was announced in Washington. The understanding, which does not require Senate approval, is directed against threats to the Middle East ''caused by the Soviet Union or Soviet-controlled forces from outside the region.'' (Page A1, Column 6.) Nuclear arms talks began in Geneva. The first meeting on efforts to reduce the weapons in Europe was characterized by Paul H. Nitze, the chief American negotiator, as ''cordial and businesslike,'' and by a Soviet spokesman as ''very constructive, with both sides striving for agreement.'' (A1:5.)

Richard V. Allen, whose name was hardly a household word when accusations of improprieties against him began to emerge, has suddenly become a household face. Mr. Allen, President Reagan's national security adviser, began his first full day on an administrative leave on Monday by taping an interview for ABC's ''Good Morning America.'' By 7 A.M. he was in the studios of NBC News in Washington for a live interview on the ''Today'' show. As he spoke, a driver provided by CBS News waited outside to speed him across town for a 7:35 A.M. appearance on ''CBS Morning.''

Col. Joe H. Engle of the Air Force and Capt. Richard H. Truly of the Navy, in their first news conference since the flight, said the voyage should have been called a ''maximum-accomplishment mission,'' even though problems with a fuel cell forced it to be shortened from five days to two.
