Nov. 23. VP) Sheriff E. E. Minard of Lead today was grilling Charles Fowler of Denver, captured by a posse last night, about the death of a Lead policeman who was shot down as he stepped from a barroom door.

Fowler, alias George Robert. 29, was brought here after deputy sheriffs took him into custody at the Phil Anderson ranch, 18 miles south of here. He had been sought since early in the day, after Milan Miller, 30, the policeman, was summoned from a tavern in Lead and killed as he stepped over the threshold. Threatened Policeman E. A.

Deputy Sheriff Fred Seals said, but admitted talking to Miller. The deputy quoted Fowler as saying the policeman was shot by "a guy across the street, and a good shot." He insisted he did not know the man who fired. Sheriff Minard said Fowler claimed he had been beaten by Miller and other Lead police officers while held in Jail there.

The sheriff described Fowler as a "labor agitator" and said he had sought for a year to bring legal action against the officers. Although there were witnesses who saw Fowler and the patrolman leave the barroom early yesterday and heard seven shots, officers found no one other than Fowler who witnessed the actual shooting, the sheriff said.

Authorities said a gim had been stolen, and dog at the ranch had been shot. Fowler was unarmed when he was arrested. Leaving the ranch, the posse fanned out through rough timber country, leaving guards at strategic points and watching, all roads out of the section. Gale Wyman, Ward Wyman and John Houlette made the capture. Fowler offered no resistance.

Earlier in the day Mayor Dwight Casner announced the city of Lead had offered $500 reward for the capture of Miller's slayer.

5d OFFICIALS FAVOR PLAN OF UNIONS Say Only Barrier to Industrial Peace Is Opposition to Unionism New York, Nov. 23. (V-The only barrier to industrial peace, in the belief of two members of President Roosevelt's commission on industrial relations, is the failure of industry to recognize that it must not resist unionization. The members Mrs. Anna M.

Rosenberg, regional director of the social security board, and William H. Davis, former deputy NRA administrator, told a trade and commerce bar association dinner last night elimination of American industry's fight against unions would probably establish workable industrial relations here, such as now exist in Great Britain and Sweden. pavis said that neither the British nor Swedish system was supplemented with legislation similar to the Wagner act because both nations had overcome the growing pains through which America was passing. Mrs. Rosenberg said collective bargaining necessitated a genuine desire for solution of a problem.

She cited the British method of drafting contracts on an industry-wide basis, rather than locally, saying this made for responsibility not only on the part of employers but on unions as well.

UP) A drastic purge of the great soviet Russian youth organization Komsomol was revealed today with the removal of its leader, Alexander Kosarieff, and four other high officials. They were accused of protecting morally corrupt, drunken and traitorous elements within Komsomol, from the ranks of which the communist party recruits new members. Komsomol was purged, some 14 months ago when live secretaries and eight other officials were ousted and Kosarieff was sternly rebuked and warned to put his organization in order.

That reorganization continued until March, 1938, when a halt was called and "over-vigilance" was blamed for the unjustified expulsion of thousands of members. Komsomol's membership in 1935 was 6,000,000. In recent weeks sharp criticism of Komsomol conditions began appearing in the soviet press. Laxity in leadership was charged. A resolution by the Komsomol central committee said Kosarieff and the others were removed for: 1.

"Ruthless violation of internal democracy of Komsomol secretaries, who remained deaf and dumb toward all warnings of ordinary workers. i. for a nearness, Dureaucrauc and hostile attitude toward honest workers. 3. "For protecting morally corrupt, drunken and hostile elements in Komsomol and concealing traitorous elements." Apostolic Delegate to London Appointed Vatican City, ov.

The Italian press published reports from London that the Vatican's action was believed to be a move seeking British support in the church's conflict with Germany over the treatment of German Catholics.

Vatican officials declined to comment on this point. COLLECTION OF TAXES ON SOME ITEMS IS UP Washington, Nov. 23. (IP) The treasury reported today that improving business brought excise tax collections on gasoline and electric energy in October above the revenue of the same month last year.

The spokesmen said the big pack- ers have large quantities of dressed beef and pork in the coolers and could bring in dressed meat from their branch plants in other cities. Such plants also could increase their receipts of "direct" livestock which goes directly from rural concentration points to the plants, in contrast to animals bought and sold by commission men in the yards.

Commission men ordered fanners and country correspondents to halt livestock shipments pending settlement of the strike. However, an estimated 10,000 head were already en-route to the yards. Unionists Indicated commission men would be permitted to feed and water the animals in the pens but would not be allowed to drive them to the plants. strikes, awaited the arrival of Prime Minister Chamberlain and Foreign Secretary Viscount Halifax of Britain. There was a strong belief their visit would result in forging the Anglo-French mutual assistance pact into a virtual military alliance through rewriting of the present agreement.

Though some French and British sentiment was that the nazi anti-Jewish campaign was a barrier to reaching a full appeasement agreement with Adolph Hitler, Germany went ahead with her program bv levying an assessment of 20 percent on Jewish fortunes exceeding $2,000 to pay the (400.000,000 fine for the assassination -of voin Rath, Paris embassy secretary, by a Jew. The assessment was decreed an the German propaganda machine, in full swing, warned no mercy would be shown in writing "the last chapter, of the Jewish question."

Jews wero forbidden public office and, while retaining citizenship, were barred from voting on questions of state administration. In Britain Jewish aid organizations insisted speed was the prime necessity of plans for aiding Jews in Germany.

Dissatisfaction was expressed with Chamberlain's proposal to settle Jews in Tanganyika, northern Rhodesia and British Guiana since It was feared delays would be entailed.
