'GOMPERS LEADS
NPARDON PLEA
Draft Evaders Not Included
in List Of Prisoners Labor
Asks Release.

WASHINGTON, April 4.-Organized
labor today renewed its plea for release
of political prisoners.
Samuel Gompers, head of the Ameri-
can Federation Of Labor, and a delega-
ton of labor officials, called at the
White House and urged President Har-
ding to pardon all persons who were
sentenced because of their views on the
war.
The most conspicuous Of these is
Eugene V. Debs, serving time in Atlanta
penitentiary, whose case Is under review
by Attorney General Daugherty.
Another delegation composed largely
of Socialists is to call at the White
House on the same mission, April 10.
The labor delegation is restricting its
appeal to those who are serving sentences
because Of their opinions regarding the
war The draft evaders and those con-
victed Of activity designed to hinder the
war, are not included in the category OF
political prisoners, in the opinion Of
Gompers
Before his election, Harding expressed
the opinion that all of these cases should
be considered individually on their
merits. An impression is current in
Washington without any definite state
ment to bear it out, that Debs is to be
