DEBS'S CASE LOST;
HE TALKS STRIKE
Denied a Rehearing, So
cialist Leader Threatens
a General Walkout
INDIANA WILL START IT.
Barring Executive Clemency,
Convicted Agitator Must
Serve His Sentence

Akron, o.. April 1.--Eugene V
Debs, Socialist leader. yesterday threat
ened to call a general strike OF his party
throughout the country unless he Is
granted a rehearing in thc courts on
charges upon which he was convicted
under the espionage act.
Debs was confined to bed with lum-
bago at the home of Mrs. Margaret
Prevey here when notified the United
rehearing.
When shown the report of the decision,
States Supreme Court had refused him
Debs said:
"That means that ~ May /, the day
on which I begin my sentence. general
strike will have eliminated. 1t must not
be forgotten that that day Is the labor
day of the world. On that day / had
been assured that II the Supreme Court
had not ruled by that time moro than
5000 labor meetings would have been
held asking for my release.
THE miners of my own state-Indi-
ana-vill start the strike. These men
came to me at my home in Terre Haute
before started on my last speaking
tour and told me that from the day
went to the penitentiary there would be
no more coal mined in Indiana until the
day I was released.
THE movement undoubtedly will begir

national court The proposition really
contemplates. though Mr.. Root does not
propose 1t, equipping the league or the
court with military or naval powers
to force the decree IL necessary.
This certainly Is going too fast. Bet
ter far, In my opinion, is the league pro-
vision.
Should Divide Amendment
"As TO Mr. Roots proposed amendment
reserving the Monroe Doctrine and
American questions (includng immigra-
tion), 1t should, in my opinion. first Of all
be divided. The Monroe Doctrine is one of
American international policies and the
immigration question Is one of domestic
policy The immigration question Is no
more American than 1t Is Canadian or
Australian or British. Let us divide
them then In any covenant.
THE Monroe Doctrine prohibits any
natisn of the old world from making
forcible aggressions against any nation
on the western hemisphere. The league
of nations goes further. and is designed
10 prevent nations from making forcible
aggressions anywhere, either in the west
ern hemisphere or anywhere else.
''If the league of nations had been in
existence 100 years ago the declaration
ol tne MOHrOe DOCLrlne WOulO not nave
been necessary. The league of nations
agreement is compromise between four
teen nations. We cannot have every
thing exactly as we want It.
Exclude Domestic Questions"
"As to Mr.. Roots proposition that
questions of n domestic character, like
immigration, should be definitely ex-
cluded from league jurisdiction, I agree
with him, although not with the wording
of his amendment. I am quite certain
that only international questions can be
considered but that matter can easily be
made clear and I believe it will be.
"As to Mr.. Roots other proposed
amendments, they seem to me of les,
Importance, affecting as they do chief,
the future development of the league
matters of procedure and Withdrawal
of the members.
IT am glad to note his Endorsement
and approval of Article 10. which GER
| tain Senator'S have attacked so furious
ly. He proposes to it an amendmen
which does not seriously weaken th
article. 1t simply reserves to each mem
ber nation the right to withdraw afte
five years from the obligation to assis
in preserving the political independence
| and territorial integrity Of other nations
This withdrawal calls for a years notice
| There is no reason to think that afte
five years operation there would b
