They have not been decided. We have
no way of determining when de-
cision will be reached"

SHOWING Of FILMS
Of DEMPSEY FIGHT
IN \. Y. IS HALTED
Federal Authorities Subpoena
Tex Rickard in Inves-
tigatiOn.

New York, July 22.-Tex Rickard.
promoter of the DempseyCarpentier
bout in Jersey City. July ,. Friday
was served with snbpoenas to appear
before the federal grand jury Monday
in connection with the investigation
into the alleged transportation of mo-
ton pictures of the contest to points
outside of New Jersey.
A local theater has advertised that
the pictures would be shown Saturday.
F. C. Quimby who has an interest in
the film right and had arranged for
Saturdays exhibition here, contends
that the bout was boxing match and
as such there was no federal statute to
prevent motion pictures of it from
being transported from one state to
another for exhibition.
Daugherty Ruling Denied.
Reports that Quimby's attorneys
had obtained a ruling from Attorney
General Daugherty that the exhibition
was permissible. were denied by Fed
eral District Attorney Hayward.
The belief that the federal govern
ment has not right to prevent the ex-
hibition of motion pictures of the
Dempsey Carpenter fight outside of
New Jersey was expressed Friday by
JOnn r. Joyce, dSSlSlAnC Onlted StdteS
attorney here.
In announcing that he had begun an
investigation of report that the films
had been brought into New York from
New Jersey for an advertised exhibi-
ton here Saturday he said that the
government could only accept such an
exhibition as evidence of interstate
transportation of the films in violation
of federal law.
Action Against Transporter.
This evidence. he added, could be
used only against the person who did
the transporting, not against the one
displaying the picture.
David Horsley, an independent mo-
ton picture producer. said he had filed
an affidavit with Mr.. Joyce Friday ask
ing that action be taken against per-
sons responsible for bringing the pic
lures into the state.

San Francisco, July 22.-Herbert II.
Brecht, merchant, reported to Cap
tain of Police Detectives Matheson,
Friday. that he believes a man who ad-
dressed him in Il hotel lobby here last

Plans to Go Ahead for
Washington Confer
ence on Disarmament.
Expect Japanese to En-
ter Meeting Without
Material Reservations.

Washington, July 22.-Unless check
ed by unexpected developments al
Toxic. the United States government
it was understood Friday will act with
out further loss of time in perfectine
it's plan for a conference of the prin.
cipal powers on limitation of arma.
ment and Far Eastern subjects. There
appeared reason to believe that the
Japanese statesman would reach a de-
cision favorable to discussion of ques-
tons arising out of the Orient, with
reservations.
To Speak Frankly.
The informal conferences between
Secretary Hughes and Ambassador
Shidehara are known to have gone
far towards convincing the admins
tration that the japanese government
will agree to enter the conference with
out material reservations and that the
general questions at issue will be ap-
preached frankly and freely.
Insistent suggestions that Belgium
be given a seat at the conference have
not served to alter the opinion of the
United States government that the dis
cussion should be limited to the prin-
cipal allied and associated powers. It
was declared that in maintaining such
at attitude there was no intention of
discrediting Belgium and that the con-
ference always would be willing to
hear representations of any nation
not member Of the conference, where
her interests are affected.
London Preliminary Not Favored.
Reiteration of the suggestion that
a preliminary conference be held at
London failed to cause any favorable
reaction here.
1t was indicated clearly that the
United States believes that if such
discussion may be neces
sary it should take place here.
1t is understood that November II,

armistice is regarded as peculiarly ap-
for convening, the confer

London, July 22-(By the Associat-
ed Press. )-The future course of the
Irish negotiations seems to turn on
two important points-first, whether
another meeting between Sir James
Craig. the Ulster premier, and Eamonn
Ge Valera can be brought about in Ire
land, and second. whether Mr.. de Vale
ra can be induced to consent to a solu-
ton of the situation through an
amendment of the existing home rule
act, presuming that such solution
can be worked out.
Desire to Hold to ideals.
The second question appears to
hinge on desire on the part of the
contending parties to hold to their
ideals. Mr.. Lloyd George, as con-
cession to the uniopist section, wishes
to save the home rule act. and Mr..
de Valera and his party. on the other
hand, would prefer to destroy the
partition act
Mr.. de Valera is expected to spend
the weekend in Dublin in formal con-
ference with his colleagues and prob
ably will summon a meeting of the
