''The faithfulness with which

Former Guatemalan
President in Jail But
Not Being Maltreated

Washington, Jan. 21-ReportS that
former President Cabrera of Guate-
mala is being maltreated by the pres
ent Guatemalan authorities are I'M
founded, declared report from Act
ing Secretary Davis of the State de-
partment, transmitted to the Senate
today by President Wilson. The de-
partment confirmed. however, state
ments that Cabrera was in prison and
that since his confinement his home
had been robbed Of property estimat-
ed at from to 100000 of dollars.
The presidents message transmit
ting the report was in response to a
resolution by Senator Moses of New
Hampshire, a member of the foreign
relations committee. In answer TO it's
requiry regarding reports that Cabre-
ra was confined in the Guatemala
City jail, not the military academy as
it was agreed he should be, the re-
port said President Herrera had
placed his predecessor in the Jail be-
cause he could be more safely guard
ed there. sd
The department Of State" the re-
port said. ION several occasions has
expressed to the government of Qua
temala its concern by reason of ru-
mors which had reached it alleging
maltreatment of Senior Cabrera by the
authorities. There would appear to
be no truth in reports that the ex-
president is being maltreated."
The American charge at Guatemala
City visited Cabrera, December %
and found him ''in spacious room,
the ventilation of which is provided
by door, a skylight and a very small
window" he continued. "the charge
was informed that good sized win
dow was being put into the room and
that the floor was being boarded
Senior Cabrera had no complaint to
make of his treatment other than
the fact that he was kept in conf1ne-
ment," the report said. adding that
he had improved in health material
ly" since his confinement.
Thirteen of Cabrera's former SOL
diers who were imprisoned were
killed by a mob after. his abduction,
the report stated.
In the negotiations with President
Herrera for protection of Cabrera's
life and property. the report added
the dean Of the diplomatic corps to
Guatemala. The Spanish ambassador
called the meetings which made the
arrangements.
