Arrest Reported Mad
lin Torch Murder Of
; American Officers
By the Associated Press.

FRANKFURT, Germany, Jan. is.
l-Rumors circulated today that an
arrest had been made In the torch
murder of three American Military
Government officers at Passau, but
high American Army officers refused
to comment. Instead, the secrecy
surrounding the 10-day-old case was
intensified.
One officer unofficially volunteered
the statement that he believed the
case might be an "intra- Army scan
dali" A report said an American
officer was under suspicion.
Army investigators who have
wrapped the entire case in such
secrecy that so far not even the
names and home towns of the VIC
Tins have been announced officially
However, they have been unofficially
identified as Maj. Everett S. Cofran
OF Washington, Capt. Adrian I.
Wesseler, New Rochelle, N. Y, and
1t. Stanley Rosewater, Omaha, Neb.
Every attempt by reporters to OBJ
tain information about the progress
of the investigation was met either
by rebuff or by reference to some
other military office, which in turn
said it had no details.
The head Of one Army investigat-
ing body called in reporters to say
that neither he nor his subordinates
could release any information and
referred the matter back to investi-
gators in the Sd Army Area. Third
Army headquarters two days ago
had referred questions to him.
The hush-huSh attitude extended
all along the line. Investigators said
they had several leads and that the
case was narrowing" but refused
even to hint at a positive motive
Intelligence officers, however, re-
iterated that, there was no evidence
Of German resistance activity.

Soviet Practices Hit
In Report on Occupation

VIENNA, Sept. 13. (P,.-Sharp

hamper the Austrian government,

and cramp transportation by with
holding petroleum products is con-
tanned in monthly report on the
Austrian occupation released today
by Gen. Mark w. Clark's head
quarters.
Especially important during Au-
gust" the report said, were efforts
of the Soviets to disapprove the
naturalization law passed in late
July by the Austrian government,
and to construe the new control
agreement In such way as to
eliminate large part of the free
dom Of action which this agree
ment gives to the Austrian govern
ment'
1t added that the Russian ele-
ment of the quadripartite control
council also had attempted to
change the definition of constitu-
tional law in Austria in such a way
as to enlarge the Soviet power of
veto over legislation. %.
Concerning transportation the re-
port commented: Soviet delinquen-
cies Of deliveries of indigenous oil
products to the United States zone
resulted in serious curtailment of
essential highway transportation.
Five hundred tons of gasoline

military stocks to relieve a Short

$4,000, 900 Loan Sought.
AS it is tentatively set up, tie

from the Export Import Bank. Of
flcials said they understand an Aus
trian government application for a
$50 ,000,0 loan from the bank al

However, the Export loan
eventually may be anything from
s25 100000 to $75,00O,0O0 depend
ing on how other details are worked
out, they said.
Britain and possibly other coun-
tries may be asked to contribute
to the balance of the $15O,0O0, 900
program, one official said. He indi-
Gated it might be possible to scale
down the size of the assistance
somewhat if working basis is

Another Factor.
Another factor may be a so-called
disease and unrest" relief appro-
priation which Gen. Clark is ex-
pected to seek from the War De-
partment. Commanders of occu-
patton forces can ask for such
assistance when they believe famine
conditions imperil the safety of
American troops.
Officials said, however. that in the
final analysis it probably will be
necessary to ask Congress, when it
convenes in January. for a special

mating 100000 900.

attributed to robbery, Samuel Sum-
shine, 81, proprietor of bakery and
grocery, was found dead in the rear

in his head.
Later, police reported, Daniel La
CANA, 32-year-old former Marine,
