RENEWED PROTESTS
Protection Against Competi-

BY the Associated Press.
The proposed electric light and

new source of protests against compe-
tition from publicly owned power
plants.
Negotiations toward the code, some
officials believe, may lead to a detailed
restatement by the administration of
its attitude on the problem.
Utility executives have told Govern

Their ideas have been embodied in a

basis of discussion with national re-

probably return with a revised draft
of the proposed code next week.
Before leaving, however, they pointed
to loans for municipal and publicly

NAz|S ASK DEATH
OF TWOFOR ARSON
Prosecutor Seeks Beheading
of Pair Accused of Burn

BY the Associated Press.

Byth Associated Press.
LEIPZIG, Germany, December 15.-
Beheading on the block was asked by
States Attorney Karl Werner yester-
day for two of the five men charged
with high treason in connection with a
fire last Winter in the German Parlia-
ment Building.
The prosecutor demanded that Ernst
Torgler, former Communist whip in the
Reichstag, and Marinus van der Lubbe.
young Dutch brick mason, who con-
fessed setting the blaze, go to the axe
''in eXpiation of their crimes"
While Werner thundered his charges,
the Stolid Van der Lubbe lolled back in
his seat, contentedly asleep. His death
was asked on both counts in the indict-
ment, arson and high treason. The ex-
treme penalty was demanded for the
mild-mannered Torgler on the high
treason charge.
The three Bulgarian defendants,
Georgi Dimitroff, Wassil Taneff and
Blagoi Popoff, were recommended for
acquittal, but Defense Counsel Teichert
ignored the endation-Which
also can be ignored by the court.
Teichert prepared his defense plea for
delivery after recess late last night.
Expected Advantage"
The summations of the prosecuting
attorneys lasted the major part of two
ton that the Communist party had an
interest in the blaze and expected to
obtain an advantage thereby, and de-
mails of the London Brown Books
charges that HitleriteS themselves might
have had hand in the arson.
Attorney Seufert was scheduled to
plead for Van der Lubbe Friday.
Demands of the prosecution in the
cases of the Dutchman and Torgler
gave rise to speculation concerning the
execution of the sentences-if they are
SO returned by the Supreme Court,
which for weeks has heard testimony
regarding the fire.
1t was recalled that Chancellor Hitler
in an address before the Parliament
March % said he favored public de-
capitation of the Reichstag incendiaries
and their accomplices."
Earlier in the month Reichminister
Hermann Goering, addressing meet
ing, said that il he and Hitler had
their way those responsible would be
hanged from trees across from the
Reichstag"
In giving the grounds for his de-
DEGREES, both of which were signed
after the blaze and were said then to
be for the protection of the people and
the state
Court attaches speculated on whether
these DEGREES would be viewed as retro
active, particularly as the death penalty
is involved and in view Of Van der
Lubbe'S Dutch nationality.
Werner admitted that the guilt of
four OF the accused could be proved
only by circumstantial evidence.
Communists Blamed.
There is no person existing" he as
serted, who directly received knowl-
edge that these four defendants (all
except Van der Lubbe) were implicated
in the deed.
THE perpetrators were people either
N the Communist party or sympathizers
with it,
He insisted that one of the motives
in The fire was to weaken the Nazis'
position by arousing the belief that they
were guilty of planning the arson.
There is no doubt that Torgler must
be looked upon as the co-perpetrator
in the Reichstag arson," he added, land
that he proposed to give signal for
Communist uprising"
