Socialist Leader Travels From
Atlanta Prison to Washing
ton Unattended.
TRIP IS kept SECRET
Holds Conference With Attorney Gen
eral Who Was Recently Requested
BY President Harding to Re.
view Case OF Prisoner.

- Observation-Disclosures and with
out the knowledge of the public.
Eugene v. Debbs. imprisoned socialist
leader, came to Washington from At
lanta penitentiary and for three hours
discussed his case with Attorney Gen.
eral Daugherty.
The unprecedented trip of Mr.. Debs
was made with the approval of Presi
dent Harding who recently requested
Mr.. Daugherty to review the case OF
the Socialist leader and make a recon.
mendatiOn on it.
The Attorney General, in announcing
that Debs had visited Washington and
was on his way back to the Atlanta
penitentiary, said that while there was
no precedent for calling prisoner to
Washington without guard, it had
been decided in conference with Pre-.
sident Harding that inasmuch as Debs
had defended himself at his trial, he
should come here to answer in person
such inquiries as the government de.
sires to ask.
= Refuses to Comment on Case.
MT. Daugherty refused to comment
on the presentment made by Debs of
his case and declined to answer any
questions as to what recommendation
he would make to the President rela-
tive to the Socialist leader, who was
convicted and sentenced in 1918 to ten
years Imprisonment for violation Of
the espionage act.
], Debs, Mr.. Daugherty said, looked and
acted during his visit much as any
other man. He was said to be in fair.
" good physical condition. although
apparently somewhat nervous. The
prisoners physical condition, Mr..
Daugherty added, necessarily would be
taken into consideration by the govern.
ment in its decision as to his case.
The Attorney General, in his talk
with newspaper men emphasized that
the calling of>Debs to Washington did
not mean the adoption Of policy Of
general amnesty toward political pris.
oners. but was merely to facilitate the
investigation Of the Debs case.
