Grand jury action against
Enarfes w. Morse, New fork
financier and shipbuilder, in con-
nection with an investigation of
alleged war contract irregularities,
may be delayed, it was said today
by officials of the Department Of
Justice.
Others Involved.
II was disclosed that evidence
which may implicate number of
persons besides Morse is now being
presented TO the grand jury, and tnis
may cause a delay.
Acting Attorney General Goff said
he was disposed to delay conferences
between Morse and officials of the
Department until Attorney General
Daugherty. who is in New England,
returns here.
Officials Of the Department would
not disclose the names of others i'm.
plicated with Morse in the alleged
Irregularities, nor would they com.
ment on rumors current here that
the case will lead to sensational dis
closures involving well-known fig
ures.
May Require Bond.
Officials said that probably no
definite action In the Morse case
would be taken until the Attorney
General returns, but that there is q
possibility the warrant, which was Sc
cured for Morse, may be served and
that he will be required to furnish
bond for his appearance here when
wanted.

| MOVIE CENSORSHIP
Citizens Association to Send
Committee Before Com
missioners With Appeal.

Members of the Petworth Citizens
Association last night voted unani-
mously in favor of effective motion
picture censorship in the District of
Columbia and a committee of three
was appointed by Joe L. Carr, presi-
dent of the association. to attend the
hearing before the District Commits
sioners February % and urge such a
reform. A letter from the organiza
ton of motion picture exhibitors in
Washington. asking that the assOcia
tion delay action on this issue until
one of their representatives could be
heard was referred to the committee,
the members of which are ]. G.. Yaden,
W. S. Ryon and w. l.. Gutelius.
Without an opposing vote. the as
sociation adopted resolution ask
ing the District Commissioners to de-
lay indefinitely the rule, scheduled to
become operative March 1, which will
require f1remen to dress in full uni
form all the time and to salute their
superior officers. A resolution was in
troduced by Chairman George H.
Marshall of the police and fire commit
tee asking that enforcement of the
rule be delayed until the citizens had
opportunity to study it further. as it
savored of militarism. but after some
discussion, the association adopted a
substitute resolution condemning the
proposed regulation.
A committee report opposing the
Temple Sunday observance bill for the
District of Columbia, now pending in
Congress, was tabled indefinitely. J. G.
Yaden discussed at length the water
situation in Washington. On his mo-
tion the association voted to ask Con-
gresS to require the government to
pay it's proportionate cost of the water
supply and to eliminate waste.

Gratifying Responses Received as
Result of Appeals Sent Out
Through Mails,

Evidence of sympathy both with the
aims of the Young Women's Chris
tian Association and with the way in
which it's present budget drive is
being conducted is given by the early
and generous responses to the appeal
sent out. Notwithstanding the fact
that the appeals. limited to members
and previous subscribers, were not
put in the mails until Friday night
| and Saturday morning, gratifying re-
sponses were received at headquarters
1888 F street.
No public drive. with personal visits
to busy Offices and homes, is being
held. Every member of the associa-
tion Is asked to serve as a member of
a special finance committee Of the
whole" pledging herself either to
give IS or to bring in five new mem
bers as evidence of appreciation of
the work the association is doing. In
fact, members are sent postal cards,
to be returned signed. to the effect
that it gives the recipient pleasure
to accept appointment and that she
will do her part toward making the
"Y. W." the greatest possible force in
the National Capital. These cards,
filled out, are being rapidly returned
to Mrs. John C. Let's, chairman of
the finance committee.
OF the subscriptions sent in by
former supporters, appealed to by
mail to duplicate last years gifts, or
rather investments" only two have
fallen below their 1920 amounts, and
these by small sums only.
