A Time OF Unrest.

Thus the confusion existing in the
German political world makes many
leaders regard the present unrest here
with particular anxiety. Nevertheless,
the monarchist outlook is favored by the
general political fatigue and demorah-
cation. The people are disappointed at
the inability of their own and the
Socialist leaders to accomplish anything
substantial and they half believe the
mona rchist propaganda that bread ana
the cost CT living would be reduced 90
per cent, we're king placed on the
throne.
The first step in this direction prob
ably would be the election of Field
Marshal Won Hindenburg as President.
He has conspicuously held aloof from
ali nationalist demonstrations during
the last few months and has avoided
compromising himself or becoming
affiliated with any one political party.

DEFER OEBS AMNESTY
APPEAL UNTIL PEACE
Harding And DanShcrty After Con-
ference Decide To Wait For
Ratification.

Washington. d. C.. Aug. ,1.-The ad-
ministration's intention to defer con-
sidcration of tho question of amnesty
for Eugene V Dcbs and other federal
prisoners convicted under wartime
laws until after ratification OF the
peace treaty with Germany was made
known at the White House today after
a conference between President Hard
ing and Attorney General Daurherty.
Mr.. Daugherty called at the White
House prepared to discuss relations
concerning pardon for Debs now i'm
prisoned at Atlanta but tho president
was eaid to have taken the position
that decision OF the case of the Soc
ialist leader and similar offenders
should await the conclusion of peace.
While officials would not disclose
the nature of Mr.. DsuEhertys recon-
mendations. tho administrations de-
cikion to defer action was Understood
to be Indicative OF a disposition to deal
with the war law offenders in a.
generous a manner as the facts OF the
individual cases would warrant. Mr..
Daughcrty's rocomme ndations in the
case OF Dche are urderstood to be the
result OF an exhaustive study of the
Socialis. leaders case separately and
aleo in Its relation to other prisoners
confined under the ssmc laws The
document. officials said. was intended
as tho basis for the Administrations
policy on the subject Of all Imprisoned
offenders against the war laws
