MORSE LOSES
NEW FIGHT FOR
PRISON RELEASE
Bankers Sentence to Atlanta
Penitentiary Legal, Says
Court-He Will Appeal.

ATLANTA, Ca. June s2.-Charles W.
Morse. the New York banker, serving a
term In the Federal prison here for vio-
lat.ng the National Banking laws. to-
day failed In his effort to obtain his re-
lease on a writ VI habeas corpus.
Without passing upon the validity OF
that portion of Morse's sentence OF NJ
teen years beyond ten years. District
Judge Newman denied the petition for a
writ. declaring that ten years OF the sen
tence unauestionabiy was good, and as
Morse had not served out that time the
Court had no right now TO enter further
In the matter.
Morse's attorneys nled notice Of an ap-
peal to the United States Circuit Court
Of Appeals OF the Fifth Circuit.
Judge Newman said he had no doubt Of
the legality OF Morse's confinement In
the Atlanta prison. although 1t had been
erected for hard labor ~convlcts. lie
said Morse might he able TO obtain a
transfer to another prison by applica-
ton 20 the Attorney-General. but ne be-
l1eNeO COnuluOus mere were pTpDbDly %

prison elsewhere. lie did not believe,
he said. that there was a prison any
where In which prisoners did not have
some work to do, and thought that II
would be bad for them IL such was the
case.
In closing his argument in behalf Of
Morse. Attorney Arnold said he wanted
the Court to determine the exact status
OF his client. He commended hat as
Morse had been illegally sentenced to
fifteen years imprisonment. when ten
years was the maximum on one count
the entire sentence was void. He said
there was no doubt that Morse could
obtain his release on a habeas corpus
writ after he had served ten years Of
his sentence. but argued he was entit-
led TO know In advance the legal length
OF his term. because. If II VAS ten
years, he was privileged to apply for
parole much sooner than he would ~ 1t
