Ey the Associated Press. shadow of the executioner's ax fell | | today upon two more convicted spies held in Ploetzense Prison. H The two, who may follow the same path to the block taken by Benita von Falkenhayn and Renate van Natzmer, are men. One, it was learned, is a former naval technician, but the identities of both were con- cealed by official secrecy. | The condemned pair occupled cells near those in which the two noble- women spent their last hours. They | had no knowledge of their fate other than the grim tradition that no prisoner emerges from Ploetzense's walls alive and free. Several days may pass before the official executioner is notified to | sharpen his medieval battle ax and don his formal garb again. ! Meanwhile the prisoners may cling to the hope that Reichsfuehrer Hitler | will intervene to modify their deaml sentences. l Tried in Regular Court. Unlike the two woman spies, the men were tried several weeks ago in Regular Court, the sentences of which do not become effective until 99 days | after they are pronounced. The star chamber verdicts of the dreaded People's Court, which con- demned the woman sples, are executed the following dawn or at least no later than 48 hours after Hitler has de- clined to order a pardon or commuta- | tion of sentence. ‘The decapitation of the two women continued to create a national sensa- tion today as the section of the Reichswehr charged with antiespion- age activities redoubled its efforts to round up betrayers of Germany's mili- | tary secrets. The exact connection of the two i men with the alleged conspiracy has not been divulged, but despite con- tinued official silence details of the | events which preceded the execution of Baroness von Falkenhayn and Frau von Natzmer became known. Parents Reveal Secrets. The mother of one of the two voung women employed in the Reichswehr Ministry, who were sentenced to life imprisonment for their part in the plot, betrayed her daughter when she made inquiries at the office concerr- ing the late hours she was Feeping and the source of an expencive fur coat she had acquired. The father of the other Reichswehr secretary gave investigators a clue by cheerfully remarking at a gather- ing of Reichswehr officers he was pleased they were paying his daugh- ter so well. Fraulein Irene von Jena, one of those sentenced to life imprisonment, it was learned, sold information te the spy ring only -once, refusing thereafter to be a party to the con- spiracy. In this respect she differed from her associates, who were said to have carried on their espionage activities for a long time before they wére finally entrapped Fraulein von Jena's grandfather, & general in the Prussian army at the time of the Franco-Prussian War, proudly presented seven sons to Ger- | many, who later became officers. in the army of Kaiser Wilhelm I. $250,000 DAMAGE SUIT AGAINST DEAN MISTRIAL |ing for it” through the use of in- Plaintiff's Attorney Objects to Opening Statements to Su~ preme Court Jury. A $250,000 damage suit against Ed- ward B. Dean, sr., wealthy real estate operator, for an alleged assault on 8- year-old Marquita D. Simber, ended in a mistrial in District Supreme Court yesterday. The suit against Dean was filed by Bernard D. Simber, 3033 Sixteenth street, the child's father. It was al- leged Dean assaulted the girl in his apartment at 1669 Columbia road last March. He pleaded guilty to a sim- ple assault charge in Police Court last May 8 and was given a suspended sentence. The mistrial was ordered by Chief Justice Alfred A. -Wheat after Attor- ney Joseph C. Turco, representing the plaintiff, had objected to the opening statements to the jury of Defense At- torney Gwynn Gardiner. The chief justice took exception to statements by Turco and declared the mistrial Because of the nature of the case all woman jurors were excluded. LEAGUE TO DISCUSS D. C.

The Bureau of the Mint does not pay a premium on old coins, according to Mrs. Nellie Tayloe Ross, director of the mint. Many collectors of old coins, acting on erroneous information, are writing to her in the false hope, she said, that they could dispose of their coins at more than face value. | “The Government pays no premium upon any issue of coins,” Director Ross said. “No premium list of coins, | or list of coin dealers, is published by the Government. The Government does not undertake to determine whether or not specific coins have spe- cial value or to decide questions of numismatics, whether referring to coins of the United States or of for- eign countries,” o TN 7 been set aside for discussion of Distriet [ ™ THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. €.

TUGHELL VISIONS | IDLENESS POLLCY Says Adult Males Unable to | Get Jobs Must Be Paid by Society. By the Assoclated Press. CHICAGO, February 20.—The be- lief that society is approaching the conclusion that a “considerable num- ber” of ‘he adult male population of the United States is entitled to an in- come without working for it was ex- pressed yesterday by Rexford G. Tug- well, Undersecretary of Agriculture. Discussing social security plans ef the administration before the Chicago Dental Society, Tugwell said the “defi- nite éonclusion” had” been reached “that a majority of our people were entitled to an income without work- herited captial funds and the eman- cipation of women and children from industrial labor. “It seems to me that we are ap- proaching a similar conclusion with respect to a considerable number of our adult male population,” he added. “So long as we say that a man can- not get an income unless he has a job and so long as, at the same time, we continue to make it possible for one man to produce more today than two men produced a short time ago, and so reduce fobs, we shall have to struggle with the problem of getting income into the hands of those who are dis- placed.” He mentioned the dole as one possible solution of this problem.
