Etling, as the adminIstrator of the insolvent estate of his late father Abraham Etling has failed in Probate Zurz Probate, Couricent ruled late Friday that Etling not only good job, but had to pay his father's funeral expenses of $411 out of his own pocket. The hearing disclosed bitter fend between Etling and his brother, Forest, who in recent years has been a competitor in the storm window business.

The unique, court action had been Etling had died just ahead of the pending years. The do late Mr. 1929 stock market crash. Forest Etling brought the removal action on May 6, 1930, and it was generally supposed it had been settled finally after that by former Probate Judge Lewis D. Slusser.

ZUR7 discovered recently that no final report ever had been filed. Forest Etling then renewed his action to have his brother Harold removed. Atty. Howard L. Calhoun, at Forest Etling's urging, inquired minutely into what of three North Hill homes that Harold Etling and his father built shortly before the father's death.

Russian Prisoners Eager For Death! Interrogations, Torture Always Come In The Dead Of Night By WILLIAM L.

The long procession of Communist confessions, looked upon by the civilized world as a phenomenon, is no mystery to De Mohr. He confessed. He tells why! De Mohr was released late in 1950 from Soviet detention which began when he was captured in Bulgaria in 1944.

He and 11 other Italians were placed in Lefortovo prison. In Lefortovo, as in all Soviet prisons, everything out of the ordinary is done by night, suddenly, without previous warning: the searches, the questionings, even the infrequent shower baths. Suddenly, in the dead of night, men and women guards descend upon a cell, with strong lights which blind prisoners accustomed to perpetual semi-darkness. The prisoners- there are three to a cell required to strip naked and stand with faces to the wall while guards go through the cell. BUT THIS is not the worst.

The most dreaded occurrence is the sudden questioning. De Mohr went through three interrogations. Each lasted for Immigration Quota Raise OKd In House WASHINGTON (P) -The Senate today has A House-approved bill to erase all racial barriers to U.

sometimes for weeks, without letup. Here is how it went: At 10 p. all were required to lie on for prisoners, the night. Suddenly at 11 p. guards would swoop down.

The unlucky prisoner was taken off to the prison office for interrogation. THE FIRST interrogation establishes, born? biography. What were Where the names of your father, your mother, relatives. What were your father's political views at the time? What did your parents talk about in those days? What did your family read? What did their friends read say? What were the names and addresses of all your friends and relatives from the time of your childhood? Many of the questions were ludicrous and impossible to answer, but the reply don't remember" is not accepted. This questioning can go on for many days.

But it is not yet the real thing. FOR DE MOHR the real thing came when the questioning got into the period of his service A8 A diplomat in Sofia, where he was press attache. The Russians demanded A full list of his informants, A. full list of every person he knew in Bulgaria, a. full description of all his "spying" activities.

Everybody Each questioned day is considered he a sPYaken back to his cell. During then day it is forbidden to sleep. He was allowed to sit down or to stand up or to pace the tiny aisle between the wooden bunks of the cell. But he could not lie down. If he fell asleep sitting down, the guard awakened him roughly.

AT THE END of two weeks of this treatment, without sleep and with food rations cut, the prisoner is no longer able to understand what is happening. is not capable of thinking clearly. Toward the end of the treatment, when the prisoner is signing the confession, he is actually temporarily insane, De Mohr says. THE WORST questioning for De Mohr came in 1949, conducted by a man the prisoners called "the terrible commissar," whose name was Purenkov. At one point in the endless questioning, Purenkov's tone suddenly changed to wheedling, and the questioning went like this: Q-What would you do it you were suddenly freed? A- no hope of getting out of here.

Q-Well, just suppose you did get out. What then? A--I I don't know. I suppose I would do anything I could to make. living. Q-Ha, ha! You have "L'Oncle Sam." (He said it in French.) A--What do you mean? -I mean the Americans.

You can go to America. You can join their service. They will give you money, an automobile, an apartment, anything you want. (De Mohr was puzzled. Where was all Me SINCE 1849 ONE QUART US STANDARD MEASURE Lucas, Name in PAINTS PAINT JOHN LUCAS COMPANY.

You must decide between them and us." He paused. Then he shouted: "But it doesn't matter. In 1951 we will settle accounts." THIS WAS in 1949, before Korea.

Perhaps, says De Mohr, something has happened since then to change the Russian mind. Perhaps it was only the braggadocio of a minor bully. SOMETIMES A prisoner is tough. The Russians explain that they have plenty of time and plenty of experience with tough cases. They break all of them.
