DOOMED TRAITOR WATCHED

DETROIT, Aug. - Guards are keeping close watch outside Max Stephan's solitary confinement quarters at the Federal Deten- ton prison to prevent the con demned man from making any possible attempt at suicide.
 Sixty-seven days remain on the calendar before Stephan mounts the gallows and pays his debt for sheltering a Nazi air corps officer, Peter Krug in De troit. Lieutenant Krug stopped off in the motor city after escap ing from the internment camp al BoWmanville, Ont. Krug was seized in San Antonio, Tex. and his testimony convicted Stephan of treason.
 Stephan insisted, in gutteral tones, before his stout guard that Germany would save him from hanging on November 13, as scheduled. But the former res taurant owner did not explain how this could be done. Mean while, defense attorneys studied the possibility of appealing to a higher court.

President Approves Military Commissions Findings And
 ElectricutiOns Occur

EiectrlcutiOnS occur
 WASHINGTON, Aug. - Six of the eight Nazi agents who enter ed the United States intent on sabotage and terrorism paid with their lives in the electric chair Of the District of Columbia jail
 The White House announced that the men were put to death in accordance with a recommend ation of military commission which was named to try them.
 Two of the Nazis. Ernest Burg CT and George Dasch, were spar ed because they turned Govern ment evidence and furnished in. formation that lead to the cap ture and conviction of the others.
 In the prompt execution of the spies the United States served fair warning on the Axis as to the fate it's agents may expect in the United States.
 Names of Executed Nazis
 The six Nazis who were cleo tricuted were:
 John Kerlin, Heinrick Heinck, Robert Quirin, Warner Thiel, Herbert Hans Haupt and Her man Neubauer.
 They were put to death exact ly a month from the day they went on trial before the mili- tary commission composed of Army generals. The first man went to the electric chair at noon and the others followed in rapid succession.
 Burger was sentenced to life imprisonment at hard labor and DaSch to 30 years in prison at hard labor. Dasch was the leader of the four Nazis who landed from a German submarine on Amagansett Beach, Long Island New York.
 The other four were landed on the coast of Florida.
 Two Naturalized Citizens
 Burger is a naturalized Am erican citizen. Haupt, 22 years old, and the youngest of the German agents, also was a nat uralized citizen. All eight men had worked in the United States and spoke perfect English.
 The execution of the Nazis fo. lowed by two days the death sen tence imposed on Max Stephan the Detroit restaurant man con. Vlcted of treason for giving aic to a Nazi prisoner who escapeo from a prison camp in Canada Stephan was sentenced to be hanged at the Federal Detention Prison at Milan, Mich, on Friday November 13.
 The official announcement o1 the execution of the six German. came from the White House.
 The White House announce. ment said that the President hac completed his review of the find. lngs and the sentences by the Military commission and that he had approved of it's unanimous recommendation, which also was concurred in by the Attorney General and Judge Advocate General.
