Solon Guilty of Perjury in Liquor Probe
SAN DIEGO AP Assemblyman G Delbert Morris Republican of Los Angeles was jailed after a Superior Court jury convicted him on two counts of perjury in the 1954 county grand jury liquor investigation. The 45 year old former insurance man, in the Assembly since 1947, vowed to exhaust all appeals before resigning. His $5,000 bail was revoked and he was ordered to jail after Friday's verdict. A motion for a new trial is set for May 24 with sentencing to follow if denied. Morris is the second legislator convicted in the probe, joining Charles W Lyon who faces prison for conspiracy and bribe charges related to liquor license applications. Dist Atty Don Keller planned to attend an extradition hearing in Phoenix for Bonelli, former member of the State Board of Equalization, charged with collecting political contributions from liquor interests in violation of the election code and other offenses. Morris was denied bail by Judge John A Hewicker.
