Debs, socialist leader, whose ten
year prison sentence for violation
of the espionage act was committed
on Christmas came here today from
the Atlanta federal penitentiary
and called on President Harding
and Attorney General Daugherty.
Mr.. Daugherty said Debs came of
his own volition, while Debs de-
clared his visit was at the request"
of the attorney general and that he
was given a ticket to the capitol
by the warden without choice of
destination, alth ugh he had plan

After his conference with Debs
the attorney general declared in a
statement that there were no UNI
usual conditions attached to the
Communication of the sentence, that
no advice was offered to Debs nor
was any requested and that he
h ped Debs would direct his tai
ents to a useful purpose.
No statement was made after the
White House conference, but on
reaching his hotel, Debs broke his
silence and declared he would de-
vote his time to the freedom of all
prisoners. He added that he had
scussed his opinions with Presi-
dent Harding in order that there
might be no misunderstanding as

FOOD IS CRY
. ON EVERY HAND
AMONG TARTARS
Half of Population of Re-
public viii Starve Before
the End of Winter Unless
Aid is Sent.

Kazan, Russia, Dec. 26.--That
half the population of the Tartar
republic will starve before the end
of winter unless further aid in the
form of food is sent from other
countries, is the conviction of j,
Rives Childs, of the American relief
administration.
Conditions are growing worse by
leans and bounds" says Mr.. Childs,
"Things took a turn for the worse
in November and will reach a crisis
in January. The need of food here
is very serious. TheSonly meal that
seventy-five per cent of the children
in the territories covered by our
kitchens are receiving today is that
given by the American relief adj
ministration. Unless the outside
world awakens to conditions here
I doubt if we shall save more than
half the children we are feeding to-
day."
In his message, Mr.. Childs, who
is n regional director of the A. r.
A.. further calls attention to the
fact that upon Americas action in
sending grain and seeds depends
next years harvest. Next year
will see a repetition of this terrible
state of affairs unless America
sends grain and seed" says Childs,
whose information regarding pres
ent conditions was obtained during
a, survey trip through the stricken
section.
1--WE cannot urge too strongly the
necessity for adult relief" adds the
message. 1.-THE victims of famine
here look to America for whatever
substantial aid they are to get
Food is the cry on every hand.
That the American relief admin
istration is enabled to halt the death
march through it's child-feeding
program, by means of which 1900
600 Youngsters are to receive sus-
tenance during the present winter
shows the extent of the A. X. A.
work in this section. This program,
however, provides only for the
children. If adults are to be fed
America must increase its flow OF
food remittances into the famine
REGIONS.
Through the food remittance sys-
tenn Americans are enabled to SEND
III pounds of wholesome foodstuffs
to designated persons for SO. Ship
ments in this FORM for individuals
can be made up to $50. For insti-
tutions, groups of doctors, farmers
homes for aged, etc. shipments can
be made up to $500. Applications
for these remittances must be made
through the American relief admin
istration's eadquarters, AZ Broad

EVEN CAREFUL
CALOMEL. USERS
ARE SAL|VATEL
Next Dose of Treacherous
Drug may Start Misery
for You

Calomel is dangerous. It may
salivate you and make you suffer
fearfully from soreness of gums
tenderness of jaws and teeth,
swollen tongue and excessive saliva
dribbling from the mouth. Don't
trust calomel. 1t is mercury; quick
silver.
If you feel bilious, headachy,
constipated and all knocked out,
just go to your druggist and get a
bottle OF Dodson's Liver Tone for
a few cents which is a harmless
vegetable substitute for dangerous
calomel. Take a spoonful and IL ii
doesn't start your liver and
straighten you up better and quick
err than nasty calomel and without
making you sick, you Just go back
and get your money.
II you take calomel today you'll
be sick and nauseated tomorrow,
besides, 1t may salivate you, while
II you take Dodson's Liver Tone
you will wake up feeling great. No
salts necessar,. Give 1t to the chill
dren because 1t is perfectly harm
less and can not salivate.
