EYE. ROSENBERGS BJT (about 13300) Reiman Morin of The Associated ress, the writer of the following Story, was an official witness at executions of Julius and Ethel rg.) By RELMAN MORIN SING SING PRISON, Ossining, NM. Y¥. w—Julius Rosenberg and his wife, Ethel walked quietly to the electric chair last night and Were executed for the crinie of delivering to Soviet Russia the @ecrets of the atomic bomb. Neither of the condemned spies | talked, nor attempted to talk, as the last moments came. “Both entered the death chamber fm Sing Sing Prison—only a few Moments apart—with a firm step and a stony face. They were exe- @uted before sunset so that the grim task woula be finished before the beginning of the Jewish Sabbath. It was the day after their 14th wedding anniversary. They were the first non-military eonvicts in the history of the United States to be executed for @spionage. At the hour of retribution, crowds athered, demonstrating, in New ork, London and Paris. Hysteri- eal sympathizers, screaming and erying, milled around a speaker’s stand in New York’s Union Square. Street fights broke out in Paris, and several policemen were re- ported wounded, In London, thou- sands roved the streets, waving copies of the Communist newspap- er, Daily Worker, which carried a pos word in giant type—“Mur- wen : In Dublin, two bottles of kero- sene were thrown through the win- dow of the U. S, infurmation office. They did not explode. But in Ossining, where the pris- on is located, the night was quiet. Heavy details of police and state troopers, guarding temporary bar- ricades, met no demonstrators. As the fixed hour approached, two telephone lines were opened between the office of Warden Wilfred L, Denno and Washington —presumably to be in touch with the White House and the office of Attorney-General Herbert Brown- ell The Rosenbergs spent most of their last day together. Warden Denno said they talked from about noon to 6:20 p. m. (EST) in the woman’s wing of the prison. They were separated by a wire screen. The party of official witnesses entered the death chamber a few It is a square room, Behind the ic chair was a white, wheeled In front were four rows of benches, like pews in a church. ‘The room was heavy with silence. _ overhead, the lights beamed e electric chair.

It was about 7:02 (EST). The 8 were so arranged that husband and wife would not know when the other went down ‘the corridor. Had Ethel Rosenberg gone first, she would have passed her husband's cell. Rosenberg, 35, wore dark brown trousers, a white undershirt with sleeves, and low slippers without heels. His moustache had been shaved off. His glasses were removed. * His face was a blank. His eyes appeared not to sce any of the people in the room nor any of its details. : But he turned, without guidance, electric chair and sat down the chair, beside the witness’ benches. prayer book. His vcice dropped to a whisper, He prayed steadily, and | kissed the book. ‘The black helmet was placed on bi Koslowe moved to the left | He kept hie eyes on the | Cracken ripped the undershirt, exposing Rosenberg’s chest. They listened for a long mo- ment. Then Dr. Kipp said, “I pro- nounce this man dead.” The body was lifted onto the white table and wheeled out of the room. A guard moved to the door leading to the corridor. He left it open an inch or two and stood there, listening. About three minutes later, Rabbi Koslowe’s voice again came from beyond the door. The guard pulled it open. The rabbi entered, holding the prayer book almost on a level with his eyes. He read both the 15th and 3ist Psalms, “Who shall sojourn in Thy tabernacle. . .” Ethel Rosenberg, 37, walked be- hind him. She wore a shapeless green dress with a small white pattern. It had no belt. The sleeves were short and the neckline was high and round. She also wore slipper-type shoes. Unlike her husband, she looked around the room. Her eyes flick- ered from face to face, across the row of witnesses and down the line of guards, She had stopped in front of the electric chair, and she started to turn toward it. Suddenly, she stopped. Two women had followed her into the chamber. One was Mrs. Helen Evans, prison matron, and the other Mrs. Lucy Many, form- er matron and now a telephone operator. Ethel Rosenberg whirled back from the chair and extended her arm toward Mrs. Evans. Her hand was outstretched. Mrs. Evans took it between both of hers. Mrs. Rosenberg pulled the her, and the two women kissed. Each murmured, but the words were unintelligbie to the witnesses. Later, Mrs. Evans said she only recalled saying ‘‘Goodbye.” Again, the black helmet, straps and leg contacts were set in place. Just before the gear was placed on her head and face, Mrs. Rosen- berg closed her eyes. She winced, slightly, as the elec- trode was fixed on her head. Her hair was black and short-cropped. The chamber was hot. There was no sound except the half-whispered words of the rabbi. He: kept his eyes on the prayer book, and his head was partly bowed. Then, the switch was thrown and Mrs. Rosenberg had stretched her arms along the arms of the chair, with the paims of her hands turned upward. Now, her hands clenched, Then, as before, the straps were taken from her chest and the doc- tors examined her. This time, the decision was not immediate. They moved the stethoscopes several times, and there was a brief con- sultation in whispers. They stepped away, murmured to Warden Denno, and the warden signaled the guards to replace the straps. Twice more, the switch was thrown and a buzzing hum, more vibration than sound, filled the chamber, Then it was finished, With the second examination, Dr. Kipp Hlooked up and said, “I pronounce jthis woman dead.” The second execution had begun at 7:11% and ended at 7:16. So closed the story of Julius and Ethel Rosenberg which began more than three years ago with the ar- rest of Dr. Klaus Fuchs, German- born atomic scientist, who was working in an atomic laboratory in | Great Britain. | That was in February, 1950. | On June 16 of that year, David Greenglass was arrested in New lowed by detectives on both sides of the Atlantic led from Fuchs, through. several other men, to jlius and Ethel Rosenberg. wife August 11, 1950.

BARNARD SEOUL #—South Korea’s acting Prime Minister demanded that Gen Mark Clark immediately turn over to his government for release 9,000 anti-Communist Korean pris- oners still held in Allied stockades. And the U. N. commander re- leased a scathing letter accusing South Koreas fiery President Syngman Rhee of breaking a “personal commitment” in the “precipitous and shocking” release of 26,000 anti-Red prisoners this week. Rhee and his cabinet met this morning to study a stinging rebuke from President Eisenhower and government sources said the Cabi- net might discuss Rhee’s answer. Eisenhower accused Rhee of vio- lating U. N. Command authority in ordering the prisoners freed. Forty-five more anti-Communist Koreans fled from three U. N. prison camps Friday night and early Saturday. The U. N. Pris- oner Command said nine were recaptured. One South Korean was killed and one U. S. soldier was wounded at a camp near Pusan. South Korea’s Acting Prime Min- ister Yung Tai Pyun, in a letter dated Thursday, demanded that Clark turn over all anti-Red pris- oners still in Allied hands. “We must liberate them all- preferably . ., in a manner least likely to cause trouble,” he said. And Pyun warned: : “I should like to call your at- tention to the mutual need of re- fraining from saying or doing anything that might likely pro- voke passions of the (Korean) masses, which once let loose may easily go out of control. If there is any talk to be done, it had bet- ter be managed quietly, we be- lieve.” Pyun’s letter, written after the mass escape of abuut 25,000 pris- oners early Thursday, said: “We regret very much that several scores of prisoners were killed and injured by United Nations guards.” About 26,000 anti-Red prisoners fled from seven U.N. camps Thursday night and Friday night. South Korean guards, acting on or- ders of President Rhee, turned their backs as the prisoners es- caped. Clark told Rhee in his letter, released in Tokyo, that he could “not at this time estimate the ul- | timate consequences" of Rliee’s ac- | tion in releasing the prisoners. | The U. N. commander said he | was “profoundly shocked by this unilateral abrogation of your per- sonal commitment, which was so freely and voluntarily given. . | that you would not take unilateral jaction with reference to ROK forces under my ccntrol until aft- er full and frank discussion with me,” Clark said he ould not estimate | the “effect on the common cause \for which we have Sacrificed so much during these past several years.” Four marching throngs of Ko- reans paraded through Seoul’s downtown streets, celebrating re- |lians have been ordered by their government to hide and feed the | prisoners. Allied soldiers were conducting desultory searches for the prison- ers who have melted into South | Korea's teeming millions. Sources close to Gen. Won Yung uk, the provost marshal who ave the actual order for releas- | ing the prisoners, said Won is act- | ing “‘mysteriously.” They speculat- ed that he might be planning “some further actions such as fighting Indian troops if they try to come into Korea.” India is to send troops to guard Prisoners refusing repatriation, if and when an armistice is signed.

Y., —A guard | go. walked out on a catwalk circling a tower on the 2orth wall of Sing Sing Prison shortly after 7:15 p. m. (EST) yesterday. The guard criss-crossed his hands below his waist, his palms turned downward. It was the tra- ditional umpire’s signal for “safe.” This was his way of signaling to the hundred or so prison guards and state troopers below that atom spies Julius and Ethel Rosenberg had died in Sing Sing’s electric chair. The guards, -vho stood in a blocked off area between the pris- on’s inner and outer gates, re- laxed. Nearly 30 minutes later, news reporters who had been summoned through the inner gate at 6:10 p. m. burst through the door of the prison administration building. Freshly briefed by three news service representatives who had witnessed the executions, they hur- ried to telephones. Rabbi Irving Koslowe, the pris- on’s Jewish chaplain who had accompanied both Rosenbergs to to the electric chair, emerged from the prison. His face was ashen. “I'm sorry,” he told newsmen. Maid’s Night Out By RAYMER “JAMAICA RUN” at the San Carlos Theatre A combination mystery-adven- ture tale unfolds in “Jamaica Run,” which has authentic Jama- ican backgrounds. Back in 1947 I visited Kingston, Oschos Rios and Spanish Town, and at least can vouch for those blue, blue hills in the background and also for the extremely lively calypso dancing and singing. There’s only one short scene of the native jambouree, but it is attention getting. The story is about a decadent family who live on the British Is- land. The son is a bad tempered fellow played by Wendell Corey. His sister is that lovely redhead, Arlene Dahl who poses prettily in riding breeches most of the time. She is supposed to have taken over duties as overseer.

The construction of a commer- cial garage on the block breaks inte the last strenghold of private homes and apartments in the Southernmost section of the Island. Across South Street the Casa Caye Huese had already broken the quiet of the block. The bieck bounded by South, Duval, United and Whitehead, remained the only block without motels, bars or garages. The Martello Towers area is still zoned to preclude commercial buildings. It has a more northerly location than this southernmost | residential block.

Last | March he was the center of con-/ troversy on the use of his “parking | lot” on Caroline Street as a “noise | menace.” Neighbors complained repeatedly | that the garage had been convert: | ed into a noisy machine shop for) repairing cars.

She stared toward the prison. Her hands nervously fingered a curtain cord. “You Mrs. Evans?” a reporter called from the sidewalk. Mrs. Helen Evans, prison ma- tron, was the last person to speak with Ethel Rosenberg before she died. The matron had followed the doomed woman to the electrie chair. Mrs. Rosenberg had turned then, and waved. Impulsively, she had clasped the matron’s hands and spoken in a whisper. Mrs. Evans had tried to answer, but jher voice choked. Ethel Rosenberg kissed her, *and turned to the chair, The matron had left the death jchamber as guards clamped a mask over Mrs. Rosenberg’s face. “What do you want?” the wom- an asked the reporter, her voice choked. “Could I see you for a moment?” “No,” she sobbed, “Mrs. Evans wept. “I'm sorry,” she said in a broken voice. “I just can't talk now.
