And so Fisher had and Ogden, who had been permitted to witness the med- ical examination, huddled in a cor- ner. The doctor acribbled out a cer- tificate, picked up his bag, nodded shortly, and went out. Fisher felt a wave of relief. Presently the in- spector came and stood before them. “Who found the body?" he asked. “I did," Fisher stepped forward. “I was in my office working. I heard a shot and rushed in here—through the | connecting door. And found him as you see him now.” “And then?" Fisher arched his brows, surprised. “Why then I rushed into the outer | |office.

Nebraskan Banker and Wife Arrested for Taking Pic- tures in Moscow. By the Assoctated Press. MOSCOW, July 29.—United States tourists ran into difficulties with Soviet authorities yesterday over pass- ports and unauthorized photographs. A dozen American tourists were de- nied permission to land at Leningrad from the German cruise ship Reliance, although they had Soviet visas. An American couple, William L. Wilson, vice president of the Nebraska City, Nebr,, National Bank, and his wife were arrested in Gorky street, Moscow, after photographing the feet of & man wearing peasant shoes of bark. They were released after being de- tained more than an hour at a police station. Refusals Unexplained. Refusal to grant landing permits to the Americans at Leningrad, which | was the fourth similar experience of | tourists in recent wecks, was not ex- according to Matt Hutter, | American Embassy. A policeman told them it was Soviet property, they said. When they photographed the peas- ant's bark-clad feet, a woman passer- by called police, who took the Wilsons to the police station. Wilson said while they were there 40 feet of films with scenes of Moscow and Leningrad were developed in a dark room and the film was confiscated. Recently there was another case of Americans being arrested for “unau- thorized” photography. Tightening of Soviet supervision of passports had previously been mani- fested when a number of passengers from the liners Pranconia, Kungsholm and Rotterdam were refused permis- sion to land, although they, too, had the required visas. In all, about 40 of the 208 tourists who paid visits to Moscow were re- fused landing permits from the Re- liance at Leningrad, Hutter said. Americans not allowed to land were: Mrs. Lydia Miller and her daughter, Philadelphia; Mrs. P. K. Miller, New York; Mrs. A. C. Willams, New York; a Mrs. Blake, New York; Mr. and Mrs. Staube, Short Hills, N. J., and Mrs Tritsher, Mrs. Haines, Mrs. Bates, Mrs, Schermerhorn and Mrs. Hinke, ad- dresses not given.
