New York, Dec. Erwin A. and
Harry F. Morse, sons OF Charles w
Morse. through their attorney, Wilton
j. Lambert. issued a statement here
last night declaring their rather had
sailed on the Paris under a passport
issued to him In his own game and
/ without knowledge OF the govern.
ment intended action before the
grand jury.
! Justice department officials declar.
ed nothing was known OF Mr.. Morse's S
departure until ii was reported from
New York last night. Morse was
granted passport several months
ago, state department officials said
and this passport presumably was
good at the time OF his sailing.
Mr. Morse has had one OF the most
spectacular careers of any OF the big
figures In American finance.
For years a power In banking and
shipping circles. he faced his frst seri
Gus clouds in 1908, he was arrested
and later convicted of having misap-
Piled the funds OF the National Bank
OF North America in this city. In
November, 1908, he was sentenced TO
fifteen years in the federal penltenti-
AIRY at Atlanta.
Their his wife began a fight for her
husband that attracted nationwide
interest. On January Is, 1912. Presi.
dent Taft commuted the bankers sen
tence on the recommendation OF the
attorney general, based on a report
from the surgeon general Of the army
which read in part.
"A careful review OF reports makes
ii clear TO my mind that he Is suffer
ing from a combination Of diseases
due to degenerative changes, which
are incurable and progressive"
His lease of life was placed at six
months.
Mr.. Morse. however, upset this pre-
dlctiop. He spent some time abroad
recovering his health and in 1916 re-
sumed business in New York by or
ganizing shipping combine for serv-
ice with Europe and South American
ports.
In 1920, he again encountred fed
eral grand jury, being indicted on 4
charge OF having unlawfully sold an
American vessel, the John j, McCul-
Tough, to the government of Tunis for
half million dollars, without permis-
sion OF the shipping board. He plead.
ed not guilty, was released and soon
after the indictment was dismissed.

NEW PROCESS USED
IN N0LOSMOB|LEFAC1ORY

It has been long recognized that in
motor building some means should be
devised which could insure a finished
cylinder bors being perfectly round
from end 10 end. and which would have
a surface harder than that obtained
by open machining or Erinding-the
processes used heretofore. 1t re-
mained for Oldsmobile engineers to Oh
tain the desired results by the ingcn-
ious method OF Rolling" the cylinder
borcs.
This i. done as follows: A central
spindle Is surrounded by rolls which
somewhat resemble roller bearings.
Each roll is carefully measured with
micrometcrs so that the whole forms u
true circle. This is made TO the true
size of the desired cylinder bore and
u previous machining operation on the
cylinder wall allows from one-half to
three quarters OF thousandth metal
on tho diameter to be COMPRESSED by
rolling.
Tho result Is that the roll. which
works in oil against the cylinder wall
congresses the metal by crowding the
metal back under expansion and gives
it hardness and polished smooth
ness which is unobtainable by any
other means or methods. The result
is much longer life to the cylinder walls
and insurcs a true bore.

Will Announce Vaccina-
ton Stations Soon

City Physician DIR. W. f. Buck. has
announced that in an effort to curtail
contasion among school children this
year he will Immediately launch a
vaccination campaign against small
pox. Figures compiled by the health
department show that during the last
four months of the past school year
small poN cases were reduced to a
point far below average. The reason
for this success is given at the result
of an active campaign arried out
among the tseveral publ schools.
This year DR.. Buck is not waiting
until school opens before he starts
his fight. He is starting now, and
with the aid of the health department
he will vaccinate as many school chill
dren as possible before school opens
i'll September.
This year. after school is opened,
and the case small poN develops, the
Schick test for susceptibility and the
toxin -antitoAin treatment for immun-
ization will be applied to school chill
dren. Both the test and the treat
ment have been employed to advant-
age in the larger eastern cities. The
Shik test has shown susceptibility
of children. and grown persons with
in less than ten days, while the toxin
antitoNin has not failed to function
properly in the given time.
DR.. Buck urges that all school chill
dren be vaccinated between the pres
ent time and the opening of the
shool term. Vaccinations may be
conducted by private physicians or ~
