Title	Prevey, Marguerite 1921-11-17
Abstract	Letter to Eugene V. Debs, 11/17/1921. Tells Eugene V. Debs that he is constantly in her thoughts. Assures Eugene V. Debs that he has been with her mentally even though physically he has been in prison. Writes that she attended a meeting sponsored by the Civic and Commercial Club, several of the local churches, and the Central Labor Union at the armory in Akron, Ohio yesterday. Remarks that at this meeting 3 speakers voiced their opposition to the war, a local leader of the American Federation of Labor, a preacher, and a judge of the Ohio Supreme Court. Tells Eugene V. Debs that this demonstrates that people are now able to express with impunity sentiments similar to those that put Eugene V. Debs in prison in 1918. Assures Eugene V. Debs that he will soon be released from prison. Informs Eugene V. Debs that a war veteran presented a resolution to the President that demanded that amnesty be granted to Eugene V. Debs and 140 other political prisoners. Mentions that there were 8 women at the doors of the Washington arms conference picketing for the limitation of armaments. Writes that she was proud of each one of those women. Tells Eugene V. Debs that if these women should need reinforcements that she will be on the next train to Washington. Remarks that she was peeved at Kate Richards O'Hare and Frank O'Hare for some letters that they sent out to socialists. Tells Eugene V. Debs that his is the real victory. Remarks that both William Z. Foster and George R. Kirkpatrick will be coming to Akron, Ohio to speak. Says that once Eugene V. Debs gets out of prison he should start speaking again where he left off--either in Cleveland, Ohio or Canton, Ohio. Mentions that she moved her bookstore to a more attractive location. Writes that she is still on the same block as Hervey Minns.
