Nazi Prisoners Held By
Reds For Forced Labor
By JACK BELL
WASHINGTON, Aug. 17 Uf'i
Russia has declined to discuss
the fate of hundreds of thous
ands of Gorman prisoner's In her
hands.
Disclosed today by a high of
ficial, this development of the
1'otsdnm conference has dis
rupted attempts to reach an Hi
lled ngraemeut for tlio system
atic return of captured Germans
to civil llfu In ull pnrta of Ger
many, American occupation forces
have proceeded on schedule to
screen and release prisoners not
held for war crimes. But so far
as this country's representatives
have been able to loam, Russia
has released few, If any, of tbu
men It holds.
The supposition in official
quarters here Is that the Rus
sians already hnvo put many of
these prisoners to work In re
building factories and elties de
vastated by tho German in
vaders. The Russians long ago msdo
known their Intention of utiliz
ing forced labor for reconstruc
tion. It was one of the major
problems discussed at Yalta by
the late President Roosovclt,
ffrmer Prime Minister Churchill
and Generalissimo Stalin.
Tho Soviets woro repi i-scntcd
as contending that German
civilians, as well as primmer,
who fell undor control of tho
Russian armies should be pressed
Into service.
Whllo tho Americans apparent
ly expressed opposition lo tho
n no of what has been called In
this country "slave labor," the
Kusslnns reputedly argued that
a decimated German Industry
could not employ all available
Gorman manpower, hence It
should bo used by the vlotor
countries.
There were reports that large
numbers of civilians bad bean
transported from Poland and
other soviet-occupied areas to
Russia to work in factories, on
farms, In the mines and on re
construction projects.
Some Americans who visited
the Russlnn-occupicd zono in
Germany reported seeing few 18
to 43 year old males there.
Many of these, however, may
hnvo fled to other portions of
Germany as the soviet armies
advanced toward Berlin.
Three Killed In Fatal
V-J Shooting In Idaho
WALLACE. Idaho, Aug. 17 lf)
A tavern argument during V-J
Dny celebration ended with the
fatal sliuoting of throe men in
tlio isolated logging community
of llerrick Wednesday, Sheriff
A. J. Mcl'hull snld.
Ceke Turner, 60, "went ber
serk," the sheriff said, and killed
Al Tlmmel, tavern operator, nnd
Henry Hlbbelii, a tavern custom
er. Turner then wns killed by
Tlmmel's brother, Fred.
McPhall said Turner and his
wife ware at Tlmmel's tavern
when the argument developed.
Mrs, Turner later Went to bed
nt tho home of Mrs. Fred Tlm
mel and Turner left In his car.
The car overturned In n ditch
and Turner returned to tho tav
ern with a .80 calibre rifle.
"I'm going to get the bunch
of you," he snld, then sbot Tlm
mel through the heart, according
to the officer. Uibbcln stood up
and Turner sbot him through
tho heart also, following him as
ho fell nnd firing twice more.
Turner headed across the
street to Fred Tlmmel's home
where Fred, warned by n wom
an from the tavern, was waiting
with a .32 calibre rifle. When
Turner iippeared, Tlmmel, who
was upstairs, told him to remain
dnwnstnirs. Instead Turner bo
gnn climbing, raising his rifle,
"so Tlmmel shot him through the
heart," the sheriff related.
Fred Tlmmel was not held nnd
there will be no Inquest, Mc
Phall said, since Turner's death

cide." GOVERNMENT SURPLUS
