BERLIN, February l9.-Benita Won
Falkenhayn and Renate Won Natzmer
went to the executioner's block in
Pletzense Prison yesterday with more
outward calm and bravery than any
men within the memory of prison au-
thorities.
An absolutely reliable description OF
their beheading, kept secret by the
government, was given to the Asso-
ciated Press today by man who was
there and witnessed every step Of the
procedure.
First and foremost, he praised the
upright bearing and composure Of the
two German women who paid with
their lives for their revelations to
foreign government of Germany's mill
tary secrets. This is his story:
The execution was performed be-
fore dawn within the courtyard of
the grim old prison. The night was
pitch black, but the scene was illumi-
mated brightly with fioodlights.
The execution of both women only
took six minutes.

eyewitness, "was the first to be exc

LABOR SEES n. R. A.
TREND TOFASC|SM
A. F. of L. Spokesman Hits
at WiIIiams-RooSevelt
Message Awaited.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
An American Federation of Labor
spokesman told the House Labor Com
mittee today that with N. r. A. now
headed by one of industry's chief night
riders, labor can expect increasing
doses Of Fascism from its decisions
and activities"
The statement, by L M. Ornburn,
secretary of the Union Label Trades
Department and president of the
Cigar Makers International Union,
was made as word came from the
White House that President Roose-
velt'S message on the new N. r, A.
probably will go to Congress tomorrow.
The Chief Executive gave special at
tention today to work on his recon-
mendations.
Sees Trend to Fascism.
Ornburn said the trend "iS alarm
ingly similar to the early stages Of
FasciSm in Europe, where labor was
first baited with promises such as the
N. r. A., and then suppressed"
He added:
The continued stewardship of the
N. r. A. in the hands of a former
president of one of the most uncon-
scionable, calious and arrogant in
dustrial units in this country seems
almost to be studied and certainly
Is a standing insult to labor.
"Labor's only hope lies with Con-
gress. The recent PRONUNCIATION OF a
cigarette code by the President re-
enforces this conclusion"
Ornburn referred apparently to S.
Clay williams, N. r. A. chairman and
former president of the R. j. Reynolds
Tobacco Co.
The rift between the administration
officials and the American Federation
Of Labor widened, meanwhile, over a
proposal by Representative Connery'
Democrat, of Massachusetts,. that Con-
gress require labor organizations and
employers to have equal representa-
ton on code authorities and other
N. r. A. boards.
Richberg Testifies.
Donald Richberg, chairman Of N.
r. AS Policy-making Committee.
testified before the House Labor Com
mittee yesterday that such an arbi-
trary requirement would only tend to
intensity conflict between employers
and labor.
"If the N. r. A. which we are set
ting up for the future is to be sue
cessful, it must be run by public
officials with no partisan interests" }"
he told the committee, of which Con-
merry Is chairman.
The equal representation bill has
the support of the A. F. of L., whose
leaders recently said Richberg had
betrayed" organized labor. He an
swered that they wanted him to serve
a group rather than the Government.
Although the administrative board
which now operates N. r. A. includes
representatives of labor organizations.
some of their spokesmen have COM
planned Of inadequate representation
on code authorities.

ITALIAN TROOP
MOVEMENTS HIT.
Ethiopia Guided by Pacific
Spirit in Negotiations,
Says Spokesman.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Adds ABABA, Ethiopia, February
ia government spokesman assailed
Italy today for dispGtching "boisterous"
troops to Somalilard and Eritrea.
Ethiopia, the spokesman said. is
guided entirely by pacific spirit in
conducting negotiations with Italy for
settlement of the Italo- Ethiopian dis
pute.
The official source said Ethiopia will
not duplicate Italy's procedure, add
ing that the Italian troop movements
indicate a desire on 1taly's part to
bring pressure to bear on the negotia-
tions for establishment of q frontier
neutral zone.
Previously, it was announced that an
agreement for creation of a neutral
area between Ualual and Guerlogubi
had been effected.
Ethiopia Sends Delegation.
The Ethiopian announcement said
1t was decided to send a joint dele
cation to the border area to delineate
the neutral district.
The section is adjacent to Italian
Somaliland where hostilities took place
in recent weeks, leading directly to
the crisis in Italo-Fthiopian relations.
Government officials also disclosed
that they hoped other outstanding is
sues between the two nations would
be settled by arbitration as provided
in an Ethiopian treaty signed
in 1928
A government spokesman said there
had been no further frontier clashes
since the fighting near Guerlogubi on
January 20.
1t was not disclosed what military
preparations Ethiopia may be making
in view of 1talys dispatch of an East
African expeditionary force.
Establishment of neutralized from
tier zones, to obviate the danger of
further clashes between Ethiopian
tribesmen and Italian border garrisons,
was one of the proposals advanced by
Italy for settlement Of the controversy
between the two countries.
Italy also requested an indemnity
of slightly more than $4,000 and a
public salute to the italian flag in

italian Spokesman Accuses Ethiopia
Of Making Unacceptable Conditions.


ROME, February 10 (P.-Ethiopia
was accused by a government spokes-
man today Of putting unacceptable
conditions in the way of concluding
a preliminary agreement for establish
ment of frontier neutral zone in the
region of recent Italo-E Ethiopian hos
tilitieS.
AS a consequence, the spokesman
said, Italy may find it necessary to
take precautionary measures of a
stronger nature"
The official sources said it was not
true as had been previously reported
at Adds Ababa that an agreement had
been reached on creation of neutral
zone.
I'VE suggested to the Ethiopian gov
ernment," he continued, creation OF
a neutral zone and they have more or
less agreed in principle, but with cer-
tain conditions.
Cannot Accept Conditions.
These conditions, however, we can
not accept. So VIC have replied to
that effect and hope to get a settle
ment without these conditions.
