BR BIDS GOOD BYE END BELIEF TO FEDERAL JAIL IN SNAG; FOREIGN PARTICIPANTS IN DOUBTFUL ATTITUDE DEBS AND PARTY DEPART FOR WASHINGTON AFTER RECEIVING PARDON China and Far East Problems to Fol low Naval Limitations Agree, Session May End This Week merit; Confidence that the agreement on the reduction and limitation of naval armaments could be completed this week and sealed at a plenary session of the International conference, was expressed by members of the American delegation Sunday. The American delegates are also con fident this agreement will Include a limitation of submarine tonnage, which may represent a compromise between the 60,000 tons proposed by Secretary of State Hughes for Great Britain and the United States and the 90,000 tons of the original nughes plan with proportionate allowances for France, Italy and Japan. Such confidence is not shared by members of other delegations, notably the British, who regard the submarine controversy as a tangle which will not be easily straightened out. Some of the British representatives: are extremely pessimistic, inclining to the belief that no settlement Is possible and that the conference will find it necessary to leave submarines out of the limitation agreement, with each nation permitted to build as many as It may deem adequate for defense. French delegates said they would not be ready to state their position on the latest Hughes proposal until after hearing from Paris, probably Monday, Mr. Huges proposes that France be allowed to maintain her present sub0 marine strength of approximately tons. The French pronounce this unsatisfactory, Insisting a maximum approximating 100,000 tons Is necessary for the protection of France and Washington 31,-00- her colonies. The Japanese also are far fram sat- isfied with the 31,000 tons allowance of the Hughes proposal. They want the 54,000 tons maximum of the ori glnal Hughes plan and will join hnnds with France in fighting the new propo. sition, which is supported by Great Britain unconditionally and by Italy "in principle." When the naval limitation agreement is completed the conference will resume consideration of the problems affecting China and the far east. Events in China connected with the institution of the dictatorship of General Chang Tso Lin, the super- Tuchun and Inspector general of the three provinces of Manchuria, and the resignation of the Peking cabinet are regarded In conference quarters as a vindication of the position taken by the powers when they adopted the Root principles as a chart for their fu. ture attitude toward China. When the conference adopted the Root declaration of principles it was with the idea of doing something deiln ite toward removal of foreign restrlc tion on Chinese sovereignty, Independ ence and her national administrative autonomy. But the representatives of the eight nations other than China par. ticipating in the conference have come to the conclusion that China is not yet ready to receive concessions by the impowers amounting to quick and mediate application of the Root prin ciples.

Will Work for Release of Prisoner Who, He Says, Are Entitled to Their Liberty; Ovation Is Given as He Leaves Atlanta, Ga. Eugene V. Debs several times Socialist candidate for president, was released from Atlanta penitentiary at 11:30 o'clock Sunday morning, the balance of his ten year sentence for violation of the espionage act having been commuted by Presi, dent Harding. Debs left an hour later for Wash ington, his release having been condi tioned, he said on his reporting to At torney General Daugherty. He refused to issue a statement or to comment in any way on his case. He reached Washington about 7:30 a. m. Monday An ovation was given Debs as he emerged from the prison. The roar from the crowd was echoed plainly from within the walls as Ihe ninny friends he had made shouted a good-by- . Debs paused and wayed his hat to a group within the prison before entering an automobile to go to the station. Friends of Debs said he planned to go to his home in Terre Haute, Ind. when his business ;t Washington was concluded. Debs was accompanied to Washington by his brother Theodore who had been in Atlanta for several days; Miss Lucy Robbins of the American Federation of Labor, Miss Ceiia Rotter, a member of the Debs freedom conference, and newspaper men. " hours friends of For forty-eigh- t over Debs had kept a watch the prison expecting his release despite reports from Washington that his commutation of sentence did not become effec- tive until after midnight Saturday. Warden Dyche and Debs had breakfast in the warden's residence, and Debs later returned to the institution. Just before Debs was formally released, the warden Issued orders permitting newpaper men to enter the prison, where they were shown the and kitchens and the dining-rooChristmas dinner being spread for the 2300 inmates. They entered the warden's private office and greeted Debs before he left. At. the railroad station Debs decided that the party would ride In a day coach and would donate the Pullman fare to the Russian relief fund. "IJeft 2300 men back there and they all should be given their liberty," he said. "They are all my friends." He also declared he would work for the release of what he characterized as political prisoners. Debs was convicted In September, for obstructing the draft and was sentenced to ten years. Ilia friends carried the fight to the United States supreme court, which, In March 1919, upheld his conviction, and he was taken to the Moundsville, W. Va., penitentiary. A few months later he was transferred to the Atlanta prison. Last spring he went to Washington without escort for a conference with Attorney General Daugherty, in connection with efforts to obtain his release. Dobs was frequently praised as a 1918, parts. The average coolie may not know an awful lot about International affairs. He's hazy regarding the Yap cable and the open door in China and the naval espect of Guam. But he has a hunch, .gained from the popular press, that it would cost him less for living If the government spent less money on the army and navy. The same papers tell him that If the Washington conference succeeds the government can spend less for the army and navy. Whereupon he emits a lusty "Banzall" for the Washington conference. In every grade of society the sentiment Is the same. For weeks the of ficials have been wrestling with est! mates and at present have made a re duction of about $70,000,000 In next year's budget, as compared with the present However, that Is only on paper for the present, and there will be finally prepared and presented to the diet. The tentive budgets for the next fiscal year have been made upon a basis of a continuation of the eight-eignaval construction program and also continued maintenance of the ex pedltlonary forces in Siberia. The hope is, however, thaf these proposed expenditures will not have to be made, If present indications hero are re-alzed the naval items enn be consid erably reduced as a result of the Washington conference. The prospect Is that no withdrawal of the Japanese troops from Siberia can be expected for some months, but even If the soldiers are ordered out by next spring, money will be saved from the tentative budget. ' A great hue and cry has been raised over all suggestions that the educa tional appropriations might be reduced. Without exception, all the principal Japanese newspapers hopped into the ring and howled. They declared of all things that musn't be touched that must, Indeed, be titled if possible the education budget heads the list. One of the arguments commonly made was that the education budget this year Is only about 3.5 per cent of the total budget and about 10 per cent of the naval estimates, "find that the total army and navy appropriations n mounted to almost 50 per cent of the entire government revenues.
