St- —The Italian delegation tc the Washington conference departed today. . PARIS, Oct. ?I.—Premier Rriand may be prevented from going to Washington to attend the iimitation of armaments conference by the attempted Ivarlist coup Jn Hunr • -y. It was said here seml-ofli-clally today. WASHINGTON*, Oct. 2?.—The American delegates to the armament conference, j headed by Secretary of State Hughes, held their third formal session today. The delegates met at 10:30 o’clock with all members present. Spectai to Indiana Daily Times and Philadelphia Public Leaser WASHINGTON, Oct. 24.—The AntiSaloon League has declared war upon ■what its officials assert Is a plot to use tha forthcoming armaments conference a. e pretext for ’ flooding Washington with liquor.” According to Wayne B. Wheeler, general counsel for the league, some foreign publicists, aware of the amount of the liquor which may find its way into tae capital through the “embassy privilege’’ propose to make the conference the occasion for proclaiming to the world the “farce of prohibition in the United States.” The Nation-wide law will be on trial before the world, he said, and prohibition enforcement officers and officials of (he Ant Saloon League will be remise . in their duty if they do not check th. importation of intoxicants. Mr. Wheeler explained that the recent decision of Federal Judge Mayer in New York upholding the illegality of the shipment of beverage liquor through the t'nited States hasXput anew weapon in the hands of enforcement officers by which abuses that have grown up in the , Hoealled diplomatic liquor traffic can be definitely checked. “There is reason, of course," continued Mr. Wheeler, "for permitting the oc’iipants of embassies to bring with them In their baggage liquors which are to be used solely within the embassy, but no good reason can be given for permitting greater amounts. Exhibits in the case reviewed by Judge Mayer showed that greater quantities of liquor are being cent to the embassies than their occupants or guests could possibly use. “It has been heralded all over the country that there will be a flood of liquor in Washington during the conference. We also have been informed that publicists from foreign countries will be here to announce that prohibition is a farce. The guests and attaches of the conference are not in the same position as the occupants of the embassies, and even if they w r ere. they cannot transport liquor into the United States without a permit. The citizens of the United States are required to obey the laws of foreign countries which they visit, and there is no reason why the same rule should not apply here.” —Copyright, 1921, by Public Ledger Company.

PRESIDENT MAY FREE DEBS WHEN U. S. IS AT PEACE Socialist Leader Expected to Be Given Chance to Regain Health Outside Prison. WASHINGTON, Oct. 24.—Eugene V. Debs, the Imprisoned leader of the Socialist party, Is nearing the end of his confinement at the Atlanta penitentiary, according to the belief prevailing here today. President Harding's action on the pardon appeal Is believed to be imminent. Soon after the exchange of the ratification of the pence treaty by Washington and Berlin, the President will issue a proclamation that the United States Is once more at peace with tho whole world. Action in the Debs case is expected to follow speedily. RECOMMENDATIONS OF DAUGHERTY APPROVED. Attorney General Daugherty has submitted his recommendations to the President and these have been approved except for some minor changes as to phraseology. While the decision in the Debs case is closely guarded, it is believed certain the Socialist leader will gain his liberty. In no official quarter is it suggested that there will be a full presidential pardon with its restoration of civil rights, but Instead a commutation that will allow him to recuperate his broken health outside prison walls. DEBS HAS RECORD OF MODEL PRISONER. Debs has served about one fourth of his ten year term for violation of the espionage act. He has been a model prisoner and the reports upon his conduct from the prison authorities have had no small effect In influencing officials here to extend clemency. A genera! cleaning of the pardon slate probably will follow.
