Eric Wurfel, 40, assistant chief examiner of the Farm Credit Administration, died at Mount Alto Hospital yesterday from complications resulting from gas inhaled on the battlefields of France during the World War.
Wurfel was a native of Washington and attended local schools, attending University Preparatory School and the Steward School of Accountancy here.
He served both British and American Armies during the conflict, and was a second lieutenant at the end of the war.
From 1919 to 1921 he was employed with a Washington millwork concern, later becoming an auditor with the Packers and Stockyards' Administration. He became a certified public accountant while in the field on this work, and in 1927 was made land bank examiner for the former Federal Farm Loan Board, being promoted rapidly until he became assistant chief examiner of the board and later for the Farm Credit Administration.
Mr. Wurfel is survived by his wife, Alice M. Wurfel, who resides at the Boulevard Apartments. Funeral arrangements have not been completed.
