CITY HEADS DECLINE TO REPORT ON BILL Think Opinion of Women Jurors’ Ngasure Is Not Necessary, Letter Says. The Commissioners declined politely today to commit themselves on the Copeland bill, designed to amend the act creating a code of law for the Dis- trict in respect of jury service by women, discriminations” against the female in line of descent and distribu- tions and the equalization of rights of husband and wife in the property of the other. The bill was referred to the Com- missioners for a report by Chairman Capper of the Senate Dist: tee. Replying to him, they said: “The subject matter of this bill cov- in existing law the distribu- t commit- |- tion of estates and the property rights of husband and wife. These matters have to do with private rights of in- dividuals as distinguished from public matters having to do with the admin- istrative features of the government of the District of Columbia, with the possible exception of the matter of the qualification of jurors and jury com- missione: “The Commissioners feel that they should not express an opinfon as to the merits of the changes proposed in the bill. They sec no good reason, however, why women should not be made eligible by law for service as Jurors or jury commissioners."” AIR MORALE AT LOW EBB. Maj. Reed G. Landls of Chicago, an American ace during the World War, told the House military com- mittee today that the morale of the Army Air Service was “at low ebb.” He said the officers had decided there was no possibility of improving their status, which was hopeless.
