Morse and Three Sons
Indicted for Conspiracy

were misappropriated amounted to
several million dollars.
The indictments charged the de-
PENDANTS specifically with falsely pre-
tending to the shipping board and
the feet corporation, that the ship
building corporations they repre-
sented would be able to erect and
equip from their own funds, ship
building plants of sufficient size to
enable them to carry out contracts
given them by the feet corporation
and to proceed without delay to the
construction of vessels.
The intention of the defendants, it
was alleged, was to obtain large
sums of money from the feet cor
poration by falsely representing that
the sums would be used for construc-
ton of vessels and to divert large
sums from ship construction for the
erection and equipment Of plants and
housing facilities, and thus convert
the funds to the use Of the shipbuild-
ing corporations and themselves, and
to delay ship construction.
Obtained Large Sums.
The indictments further charged
that the defendants falsely pretended
that large sums of money were due
from the fleet corporation as prog
ress payments, and obtained the
money when they knew it was not
due.
Large quantities of material were
obtained from the fleet corporation
by the defendants for the construc-
ton of vessels and later. the indict-
ments charged, the defendant sold
great masses of the material and con-
verted the. proceeds of the sales to
the Corporations and themselves.
The name of William G. McAdoo,
former secretary of the treasury, and
Stuart G. Gibboney were mentioned
in the indictments as having con-
veyed to shipping board officials
statements alleging excellent hnan-
cial condition of the Virginia Ship
building corporation. 1t is not
claimed that these men acting as at
torneys for the corporation, knew of
the alleged falsity Of any representa-
tiens made by Morse or any of the
others indicted.

Women's Suffrage
AmendmentUpheld
by Supreme Court
Action Filed by Maryland
Man Against Act Dismissed
in Opinion Given by
Justice Brandeis.

Washington. Feb. S.-fhs eon-
sliiulionaliiy oi the women's suli'
rage or 10Th amendment. was sus-
tanned today by the supreme eonf,
IN a unanimous decision rendered
by Justice Brandeis,
The challenge came from the
state OF Maryland, where Oscar
Leser and others sought 10 prevent
the registration OF two women as
qualified voters in Baltimore, Lesser
and his associates eontended that the
constitution Of Maryland limited
suffrage 10 men; that the legislature
OF Maryland had refused 10 raiiiy
the woman's suffrage amendment
and that the amendment had not be-
come a part OF the federal eons,ilu'
tiou, The Maryland state courts
sustained the amendment
Objections Oyerruled.
The contention that AL ainend-
ment 10 the federal constitution re-
laiing to additions 10 the electorate
cannot be made without the consent
OF the state the court disposed OF
by reference 10 the 18th or equal
suffrage amendment. declaring that
zone cannot be valid and the other
invalid II pointed out that the
validity Of the 18th amendment had
been recognized for half a century
The suggestion that several of the
sc states which ratified the 18th
amendment had provisions in their
state constitutions which prohibited
the legislatures from raiifying could
not be entertained. the court stated.
because the state legislatures derived
their power in such matters from the
federal constitution which trans
eends anw limitations sought 10 be
imposed by the people OF a state.
Opinion by Justice Brandeis.
Another attack upon women's suf-
irage was disposed OF by the court
today, in an opinion handed down
by Justice Brandeis. II came from
the courts of the District of Column
bia, and was brought by Charles s.
Fairchild OF New York, who sought
to compel the withdrawal of the
proclamation. Justice
Brandeis stated that the case must
be dismissed because Fairchild had
no standing which warranted him in
bringing such suit.
Declaring the discussion "iinal
and complete official recognition OF
the victory of 72-year campaign by
the women OF the United States"
Alice Paul, vice president OF the Ma
tional Women's party, issued state
ncnt in which she said, women are
now free to devote their energies to
the equal rights program.
She asserted that suffrage was only
,ne plank and that women asked IAN
equal share in all political offices,
,onors and emolumcnts; complete
equity in marriage; equality in re-
gard to personal freedom, property, |
wages and children, and equal rights |
n the courts, schools, trades and |
professions"

Attack on Treaties
Launched in Senate
(Countinued from Page One.)

the four-power treaty, two offered
by Senator Robinson, democrat,
Arkansas. and one by Senator Ponl-
creme. democrat, Ohio. Senator King,
democrat, Utah, also drew up res
crvation to the Yap treaty provd-
ing that the control given Japan
over the inundated Pacific islands
should be regarded only as admin
istrative and in no sense as carry
ing sovereignty with it.
Defends Yap Treaty.
The Yap treaty. was defended by
Senator Underwood of Alabama,
democratic leader and member OF
the American arms conference dele
CATION, although he declared he was
not entirely in agreement with the
premises on which the pact was
drawn. He argued that the United
States never had an undivided one
fifth" of sovereignty over PACING
islands and hence was not giving 1t
up under the treaty.
In his speech opposing the iap
treaty, Senator Johnson declared its
real purpose was in the article con-
firming Japan's control over the
former German islands of the Pacific,
north of the equator, a right which,
he said, had been acquired by the
famous secret treaties between
Japan and the powers and to which
the United States never should give
approval. Senator Robinson also as
sailed some portions Of the treaty
and declared that taken together, the
conference covenants give japan
absolute and unlimited control in
the Orient"
Reed Raps Republicans.
Charging that the republican lead
ers were trying to force premature
action on the treaties. Senator Reed
reminded the senate that every man
who had a gold brick to sell knows
he must make quick bargain. he
added that no amount of chicanery,
no amount of haste, and no amount
Of propaganda will in the ultimate,
succeed in hiding the facts"
In an effort to secure an armistlce
until tomorrow, Senator Swanson,
democrat, Virginia, interrupted Sena-
tor Reed and moved a recess, but
was voted down, % to 40. On the
roll call the democrats voted solidly
in the affirmative and the only re-
publican who broke away from his
party to support the motion was
Senator France. Maryland, an op-
ponent Of the treaty.
After the session had run well into
the evening the leaders arranged the
unanimous consent agreement tor
vote Thursday. Coupled with it was
an agreement that after 5 Wednes-
day evening, individual speeches
should be limited to 80 minutes.
