Women Barred From Petit and
Grand Juries by State
Attorney.

Jefferson City, Nov. COAST.
Atty. Gen. Merrill f. Otis Tesday
held that women are not eligible to
serve as members of grand and Ictlt
juries.
Otis in letter to Prosecuting At
torney B. N. Smith of Shannon coun-
ty held that jury service is not "of-
flee holding" and that the legislature
will have to amend the present law
before women can serve as jurors.
The opinion of Otis folloks.
1T is the opinion of this depart
ment that until the legislature
amends the law governing grand and
petit juries women will not be cligi-
bic for jury servicce. As the law
now stands it reads as follows:
" Section odo7 r. S. 1910. Every
juror, grand and petit, shall be male
citizen of the state. 1t is scarcely
necessary to point out that the nine
tecntll amendment to the constitution
ofthe United States which gives
women the right of suffrage in no
way affects the legal qualifications
for jury service. Nor are these quail
ifications in any way affected by the
amendment to the constitution Of
Missouri. adopted at the special cleo
ton held August 2, 1921, providing
that no person shall be disqualified
from holding office in this state on
account OF SEX Obviously jury SER
vice is not office holding"

Seek End to Submarine.

Washington, Dec. abolition Of
The Submarine as an instrument OF
warfare still is regarded by the Brit
ish delegation as the most preferable
decision to be reached by the arma-
ment conference when the. question
of submarines is brought up.
While the British delegates re-
alize, it was said today, that their
views as to the unsuitability of the
submarine for warfare might not pre-
vail in the conference, they felt GER
tain it would receive much sympathy
i'll the world at large
In anticipation Of lively discus
sion on this subject before the cos
ference, one Of the highest British
authorities tonight SET out the Brit
ish attitude as follows:
The submarine hardly can be used
without being abused; in the past it
certainly was a gross abuse of every
rule of war; it destroyed the limo
cent and the acknowledgement as we'll
as the crews of warships. There
might be a legitimate use for the sub
marine if it could be confined to OPP
erations against warships; il could
not be used against merchant ships
without violation Of the rules of war.
