More than eight thousand ministers
have been asked by the Legion in this
state to devote part of their services
next Sunday to the policies and pur-
poses of the veterans organizations in
connection with the membership drive
now on in this department..
The fact that the preamble OF the
Legion's constitution begins "For God
and country" has prompted many min
listers to agree readily to the request.
Many of those who have pledged them
selves to help the veterans in this way
were chaplains in the war, including
the Right Rev. Charles H. Brent, Of
Buffalo, senior chaplain of the A. E. F.
The membership drive is progressing
favorably, latest reports indicate Posts
upstate are particularly successful in
their quest for new members, and it
is up to those in the greater city to
provide proportionate quota, accord
ing to members of the membership
committee.

Newton Says Bonus
Cannot Be Assigned
TO Veterans Relief
Fund Covers Purposes and
Persons Not Included i'm
Act Permitting Disability
Aid, Atty General Rules
Special DISPATCH to The Tribun.

ALBANY, July 26.-The World War
bonus paid by the State of New York
cannot legally be assigned to :he State
Veterans Relief Fund to carry into
effect that phase of the bonus law
which creates a disability fund, &C
cording to an opinion given to-day by
Attorney General Charles D. Newton.
The opinion cites that the purposes
of the Veterans Relief Fund and it's
possible beneficiaries are quite numer-
Gus and include many classes of per-
sons and emergencies not mentioned
or contemplated in the law of 1920 pro-
viding for disability fund, 70 which
bonus under that law could be as
signed.
The bonus law reads that the Legis-
lature shall provide by law for the es-
tablishment and administration of a
fund to be used for the amelioration of
the condition of residents of the state
who are suffering disability incurred
in the military or naval service of the
United States between April 6, 1917,
and the date when they were honorably
discharged from such service
Attention is directed to the fact that
the act incorporating the State Vet
Grams Relief Fund affirms that it shall
be used for the benefit of such per
sons as have served honorably on &C
tive duty in the military or naval serv-
ice CT the United States. 1t is as
serted that this clause permits vet
Grams of other wars, Civil, Spanish and
Mexican Border, to come within its
beneficiary scope contrary to the spirit
and intent of those who framed it.
Adjutant General j. Leslie Kincaid,
chairman OF the Bonus Commission,
gave it as his opinion that it would
be necessary for the Legislature to
take a trusteeship which would comply
with the spirit of the bonus law, and
deal exclusively with conditions at
taching to soldiers, sailors and marines
disabled in the World War.

Laresch Is Partly
Identified by Two
AS Horizons Slayer
Woman, After Long Scrutiny
i'll Court, Says He Was
i'm Front Seat of Car ON
Which Officer Was Shot

The tide Of testimony turned against
Nicholas Laresch yesterday in General
Sessions, where he is on trial before
Judge Grain and jury charged with
the murder of Police Lieutenant Floyd
Horton last December. Two witnesses,
observers of the shooting which re-
suited in the police officers DEATH
struck severe blows at the defense OF
the man who Is on trial for his life.
Mrs. Emma Rogers, of ~ Horton
Place, Yonkers, looked long and care
fully at the defendant and identified
him as the man who was seated in the
front seat of the automobile on the
running board of which Horton was
shot to death. Edwin H. Miller, previ
Gus witness, had testified that the
shots had come from the front seat of
the car.
Assistant District Attorney Brothers
questioned Mrs. Rogers on direct OK
animation.
"Have you ever seen this man. he
asked the witness, indicating Laresch
Unbidden, Laresch, short, slight,
dark man, with thinning hair, arose.
"Will you please turn your head SO
may see your profile?" Mrs. Rogers
asked.
Laresch. STOPPING slightly forward,
turned his head quickly. Mrs. Rogers
looked carefully at him.
"Now turn your head forward" she
commanded.
Laresch complied and Mrs Rogers
peered at him.
"That certainly looks like the man
in the car" she said
Mrs Rogers described the shooting
of Lieutenant Horton. On the night
the police officer was killed Mrs. Rog-
ers, accompanied by Otto A. Weisel,
went to birthday party at 10 st.
Nicholas Place. Her husband. who is
ings, stayed at home with Mrs. Rog-
ers's invalid mother She and Mr..
Weisel were walking toward the sub
way station at 146th Street and Broad
way when they heard a confusion of
voices and shots.
She saw man on the running board
of the car on the right hand side, she
said. This man, who was Lieutenant
Horton. apparently fired the first shot,
she said, and the man in the drivers
seat fired back. The man on the run
ming board did not fall, but staggered
back The man in the car, she testified,
wore cap ard was exceedingly quick
in his movements. He wore no glasses.
IareSch wears classes
Weisel, who preceded Mrs. Rogers
on the stand, also described the shoot
ing and testified that Nicholas Laresch
resembled the man who fired the shots
which killed Horton. Both he and Mrs.
Rogers said that they saw no one else
in the automobile.

has caught you?"
Il don't know" replied the young
Heron. Il was walking along the
edge of the water when suddenly
something sprang out Of the mud and
caught me by one foot and hurt ter

Peter Rabbit was puzzled. Yes,
sir, Peter was puzzled. He never had
been more puzzled. There, Just in
the water at the edge Of the Laughing
BROOK, stood the young Heron for
whom he had been looking. At least,
Peter didn't once think that it might
be another young Heron. He was d
we'll grown young Heron. In fact, he
was nearly as big as his mother. And
Sc tar as Peter could see at first
there was nothing the matter with
him.
But Peter knew that there was
something wrong because his mother,
Mrs. Lonclegs, had just been feeding
nun and he was plenty big enough
and old enough to catch his own food.
She wouldn't DO has fishing for him
IT there were not some reason why
he couldn't do it for himself. Peter
remained hidden under some great
ferns and watched and wondered.
And the longer he watched the
greater became his curiosity. What
could be the matter with that young
Heron? What could?
Presently Mrs. Longlegs tapped
her great wings and with her long
legs trailing out behind her like a

SO that her head rested on her
shoulders disappeared over The tops
OF the trees toward the Big River.
The young Heron, left alone, looked
most unhappy. His wings drooped
lie hung his head. He looked very,
very sorrowful and forlorn. Pres
entity he took a step forward with
one foot and then tried to with the
otter. But this other foot wouldn't
come. 1t was held fast by something
IN the water, something Peter couldn't
see.
The young Heron would have been
upset had it not been for his great
wings with these he tapped wildly
and SO kept his balance Then he
turned and pecked savageIy at some
thing in the water. But in a minute
or two he gave this up and once more
became picture Of hoplessness.
SUCH lock OF longing and fear and
pam rs there was in his eyes as he
looked up to the trcc-tops over which
his mother had vanished.
Peter hoped out from his binding
place. AT the first sound the young
Heron turned to face him. The
feathers on his head and neck were
raised. His eyes blazed. One of his
great wings was drawn partly in
trent Of him as if to protect him.
II was quite clear that that young
Heron intended to fight for his life
if need be.
Peter stopped. He stopped very
