Seek Testimony
Woodrow Wilson
at Trial of Morse

Washington, July 13-A subpoena
for Woodrow Wilson as witness at
the Morse trial, now in progress
here, was prepared today, but SER
vice was delayed and it was consid-
cred doubtful whether he would ap-
pear in court to give testimony.
Counsel for the defendants said they
desired Mr.. Wilson's statement re-
garding his observations of the
Morse plant at Alexandria, Va, when
he visited it in May, 1918, to parti-
cipate in ceremonies launching the
ship building work there. The for
mer presidents appearance at the
trial, it was said tonight, will depend
tanning the subpoena, said they
would consult with Rear Admiral
Gary T. Grayson, Mr.. Wilson's ply
stefan. as to the advisability of his
responding either on the witness
stand or by deposition. Defense
counsel indicated that they would
| not press for his personal attendance
in court, if advised that it would be
| unwise for him to appear there.
In accordance with loca. federal
court practice, the subpoena was
drawn by Wilton ]. Lambert, one OF
| the defense attorneys, and handed to
| the court clerk for entry, being re-
turned later to counsel for transmits
sion to the U. S. Marshal, Snyder in
| case its service should be determined
, upon. The subpoena tonight was in
the hands of defense counsel who
had not determined whether to give
it to the marshal for service.
On his visit to the Alexandria
plant, Mr.. Wilson made d detailed
inspection of the yard.

Judgment of $685.
Against Vet. Bureau
in Montana Court

! Helena, Mont, July 13-Circum-
stances, and not the subject of in
juries in the 1919 act Of congress for
veterans relief, determine total per-
manent disability" and any effort
by the director of the Vterans' Blu
reau to apply the schedule literally
violates the spirit of the act, Federal
Judge G. M. Bourquin ruled here, in
awarding Dewitt Law of Missoula
Mont. judgment for $685. against
the bureau.
Judge Bourquin declared that
congress did not attempt to define
fully the extent of injuries for the
classification Of disability but felt ii
to the director of the Veterans Bu-
reau to make such rules and regu
| lations when they are not reason
able.
In more than one instance the
rules and regulations of the director
of insurance have not been reason
able, he said.
The court praised the act for its
liberality and said that it should be
interpreted as an accident insurance,
generally"

School of Sharks
ScatterS Bathers
| at COney Island

New York, July ia school of
sharks appeared just beyond the
safety ropes on the beach at Coney
Island between 2Sth and seth streets
today and caused a rush for safety
of several hundred bathers, most of
them women and children. Life
guards who saw the fish, warned
bathers by blowing whistles. Several
women tainted.
The stampede for shore followed
cries of swimmers who declared they
had seen black fins" bobbing out of
the waves.
But when life guards rowed to the
spot with hastily improvised har-
poems, the fish had disappeared.
Fishermen and bootleggers re-
Gently have reported sharks in large
numbers in nearby waters. The in
shore appearance of the fish was at
tributed to the large number of boot
leg craft anchored along the coast
from Maine to Florida.
Charles H. Townsend, director of
the New York aquarium, said he did
not believe there were any man eat
ing sharks in the group.
In 1917 man eating sharks invaded
beaches along the New Jersey coast
and killed several bathers.
