Taking a public stand
Kevin Gowen
"On the 50th anniversary of the execution [of Julius and Ethel Rosenberg]
Thursday, Seeger, Susan Sarandon, Harry Belafonte and other show business
activists will appear at a benefit for the Rosenberg Fund for Children,
which assists children of people imprisoned, attacked or fired for taking a
public stand."
Glad they cleared that up. All this time, I had thought that the Rosenbergs
had committed treason by spying for the Soviet Union. Now I know that they
were simply taking a public stand.

Zing! Sing Sing just had the one chair, and Jules went first. I wonder what
Ethel was thinking about in those minutes Jules was facing the music. How
did they decide who went first?

Well, Julius certainly did. The evidence against Ethel is murky, but
she almost certainly knew what her husband was doing. I.e., an
accomplice. But I have a problem calling him a spy because Julius was
just a cut-out, not a real spy. The people who really did the spying,
like Fuchs, got off with life sentences or escaped the country.

So, did the winner go first or second?

I figure that Jules won. I can't imagine a man passing up the opportunity to
die before his wife.
