Title	Tuvim, Abraham 1921-05-20
Abstract	Letter to Theodore Debs, 05/20/1921. Writes that he has received Theodore Debs' letter discussing his position on the differences that exist in the amnesty movement. Says that it is a bad idea for Theodore Debs inform Eugene V. Debs on the amnesty movement's current state of affairs. Remarks that something must be done, for the sake of all the political prisoners, to forestall another outburst by Lucy Robins. Tells Theodore Debs that the way that Lucy Robins boasts about her relationship with Eugene V. Debs is placing the warden of the Federal Penitentiary in Atlanta, Georgia in an embarrassing position. Says that Lucy Robins is a "menace" and something needs to be done to keep her quiet. Informs Theodore Debs that Max Pine has been brought up against charges for "conduct unbecoming a Socialist." Says that the amnesty campaign in New York has affected the relationship between socialists and trade unions. Remarks that the amnesty question has come down to using Samuel Gompers' tactics or the Socialist Party's. Mentions that Samuel Gompers' tactics were supported by both the Cloakmakers' Union and the United Hebrew Trades. Writes that Samuel Gompers was supported by these organizations because Lucy Robins told them that Eugene V. Debs "placed complete confidence in her and her organization as opposed to the Amnesty organization of the Socialist Party." Says that he wanted a letter from Eugene V. Debs saying how much he appreciates the work the Socialist Party has done on behalf of amnesty because he wants to show how Lucy Robins and Samuel Gompers have misled the various labor groups supporting them. Assures Theodore Debs that he will not press the matter further.
