''IrOn Breakfasts"
for highpouuered men who forge ahead
delicious, serued with cream

Men need but a small bit Of iron
daily, yet that need is vital. Supply
it through raisins.
This is suggestion to you, madam
(if you, too, are reading this).
Watch your mems food for that
iron content. It's important.
This breakfast-fruit is so we'll
liked that it is welcome daily, and
it is daily regularity that counts.
Try tomorrow, learn for yourself
how good stewed raisins are, and
how the men folk like them.

Morse at HdUre;
II Is Ordered Back



subject Of investigation by a District
OF Columbia Grand Jury.
.The Department Of Justice, on the
request of which the State Department
acted, meantime was considering means
of bringing about the return of the
shipbuilder to the United States.
No steps, it was said, had been taken
for obtaining Morse's passport, as that
>was not necessary. the French Gov
efpment being willing to detain Morse,
even though he possessed Il passport.
Extradition of Morse to this country
would have to be in accordance with
provisions Of the treaty between France
and the United States, it was said at
the State Department. In. an official
quarter it was said Morse may be de-
clared an undesirable citizen and pro-
ceedings for his return carried out ac-
cbrdingly.
while reports from Havrp quoted Mr..
Morse as saying he had wired the United
States District Attorney Of his wiling
ness to return to this country when
wanted. District Attorney Gordon here
said today he had heard nothing from
Mr.. Morse. The proposed Grand Jury
investigation is to be under District At
torney Gordons direction.
The Department Of Justice later, III
a. formal statement, said:
'''The Department of Justice has
nething to say ut this time in regard
tosthe contemplated proceedings in what
is now characterized as the Morse and
other conspiracy cases. The entire
Transaction, W" are advised, is under
investigation by the legal branch Of
the Shining Board
