INVESTIGATE TWO
 NEW Y0RkLAWYERS
Prominent Attorneys Said to
 Have Received S600,OOO

New York, Jan. 22.-Two promin- ent New York attorneys were re- ported by prosecutors today to have received nearly $6O0.000 in transac- tions which led Moses Truman. 27. to confess yesterday that he commit- ted forgeries totalling si,S0o.oOO in n frenzied finance scheme.
 Lawyers Collect.
 Bundles of cancelled checks turn cd over to the district attorney were said to have disclosed that William L. Hanson, a partner of former Gov ernor Charles s. Whitman and for mery justice of city court, received from Thurman 31 checks aggregat- ing $2sS,5oO, and s30,o00 in cash de- posits to his account in the New York Trust Company.
 M. N. Koven. a Brooklyn attorney, received s313,379.99 from Turman, checks examined today were said by the prosecutors to have revealed.
 Archibald Palmer, an attorney well known in bankruptcy courts, was disclosed as having received $11,205. He told district attorneys the amount represented repayment of money borrowed by Truman, adding that Thurman had since made another loan of s12,000 of which $7,000 remained unpaid.
 
 Seek Explanations.
 Assistant District Attorney Mur- phy said he would call Hanson and Koven to explain the nature of their business with Truman, all of which appearedto have been transacted in 1924. e... ...r.
 Thurman, who was indicted yester- day for second degree forgery and released on $5,000 bail, was on hand, with his wife. at the district attor. neys office today, helping to disen- tangle his affairs as represented by bundles of cancelled checks covering upward of $2,000,000 of transactions through the Equity Finance & Ser vice Company, of which he was managing director.
 Thurman denied today that his was a Ponzi-like scheme, for Ponzi had an idea, he said, and Turman had not.
 No Restitution.
 "Please make it plain" he said that I never abused the trust im- posed in me by charitable organiza- tions with which I was officially connected. I hope not to be dsbar. red from this work.
 Restitution? I won't be able to do thing. I did not profit a penny by my deals. All the money I ham, dled was kept in circulation among my creditors"
 The interest he paid. when he paid at all, was from SIS to $65 per week on each $1,00O, Truman said.

CABS
 ARE DISAPPEARING
Last Few of Old Time Drivers
 and HanSOmS Still Remain

London, Jan. 22.-A dozen feeble old fellows who belong to the dying race of hanson cab drivers have recently been given annuities of $1O0 each a year for the rest of their lives in this motorized world. They were selected by the Benevolent As- sociation as the neediest and most infirm of n applicants for annui- ties, all men who, with tall top hats and dropping mustaches, once sat on their cab boxes adding to the easy going amenities of the streets of London. They were too old when automobiles came in to learn the tricks of sliding gear transmission. Gradually taxicabs took away their trade.
 Only a few of these oldtimers drive cabs in London today. Every- one favors the taxi, and unless one takes a cab as lark, their drivers must depend upon the few dowdy souls who have never deigned to recognize the existence of automo- piles
 Nobody troubles to identify one taxicab driver from another, but it vas different in the happy days of horse-drawn hansoms. Many of the drivers in those days had celebrated nicknames, known to peers and tramps alike. They pine away their horseless hours now in cheap homes for the infirm poor, or pick up a few pennies opening and closing taxicab doors, dreaming perhaps of the loveiier ladies and more gentle manly gentlemen of far away and long ago. From time to time they die and are carried off to ccme- teries in automobile hearses.

DELORME SEEKS MONEY
Montreal Priest, Acquitted of Half Brothers Murder, Now Claims His Insurance.

Montreal, Jan. 22..-Adelard De- lorme, former priest, acquitted by a jury last October after his third trial on charge of having murdered his young brother Raoul, in January, 1922, today was granted authorization by Justice Brueneau to undertake two actions to collect in- surance amounting to $2S,QO0 on the life of the murdered youth.
 Juries disagreed at Delorme's first two trials, held after the former priest had been confined in an asy- lum to determine his sanity. Prose- Cution attorneys alleged that the former priest had killed his half brother to gain possession of his $lSO,000 estate, including a life in surance policy which witnesses said Raoul had taken out at the solicita- ton of Adelard a few dys before the murder.

IMPROVEMENTS FOR
 WARSHIPS. S.PLANNED
Will Be 25 Per Cent Bigger Than
 Others Built So Far

Washington, Jan. 22.-Naval en gineers would hesitate today to pre- dict what the military characteris- tics will be of the first American battleships to be built in replace ment under the Washington limita- ton treaty. Asile from the fact they will be 25 per cent bigger than the present naval leViathans, West Virginia, Colorado and Maryland. and carry not larger than 16-inch guns, they are unknown quantities.. r Prhe first two replacement ships may be laid down in 1881, to be completed in 1884, when the 12- fnch gunners Florida and Utah will go 10 the scrap heap. They will be 35,000 tons, treaty measurement, which means almost 10000 tons pre- treaty rating. The West Virginia class of battleships, now the biggest and hardest hitting vessels afloat, are 32, 1000 tons, old rating.
 Since the first rost-treaty battle ships will be the British Rodney and Nelson, to be completed in 1926 when four ships of the present British fleet of the King George V class will go to the junk man, wide interest prevails in naval circles everywhere as to what their arma- ment. speed, cruising radius, pro tection, method of propulsion or other characteristics will prove to be, Little is known generally as to the British plans, developed since the Washington conference.
 First Big Gun Ship
 But no naval officer is likely 10 forget that the dreadnaught, first all-big-gun ship to be built, virtual ly rendered obsolete every existing pre-dreadnaught battleship of any navy. Nothing then afioat could compete with her on anything ap- preaching equal terms, and the fev- erish building of dreadnaughts on both sides of the Atlantic began.
 American naval designers are storing away information on which plans for their own new ships will be based. Experiments incidental to the sinking of the hull of what was to have been the battleship Wash ington were conducted for this pur- pose, to large extent, and much valuable data resulted.
 For one thing. navy experts want ed to know just how wisely they had planned the increased deck protec- tion of the Washington class of ships. It has not been revealed de- fnitely whether the Washington deck armour withstood high angle fire, but Secretary Wilbur announce ed at the ,time that results of the experiments had justified expecta- tions.

Rotary is like religion. No man can define it. It means one thing to one man and something else to an- other" according to Jim" Thwing of the New Haven Rotary club, who spoke on the spirit of Rotary to the New Britain Rotary club at the Bur ritt hotel at today's meeting.
 MT. ThWing explained what is meant by the ideal of service, and explained that since the development of the service idea in business buy CTS no longer need view salesmen with suspicion and salesmen no longer set out to ''get an order, hon. estly if possible, but otherwise if nec- essary."
 There is not successful organi- zation today that has not conscious ly or unconsciously based it's policy on the ideal of service" he said.
 He explained that Rotary means more than weekly luncheons and spectacular movements in the inter- ests of some worthy cause, but that "the true spirit is found in the indi- vidual's daily expression of the life in which he is engaged"

Danes were a half century ago when
they concluded it was a case of or
ganize and market comparatively or
starve to death then they too will
fall in line in large numbers the way
they should. The trouble with
Wisconsin farmers is that they
haven't been bit half hard enough"
thus spoke vice, president, Fighting
Bill Hutter, in an address filled with
straight from the shoulder punches.
Bill has talked cooperation to farm
err audiences over the cheese vat, in
granaries, on barn floors and in all
manner of public meeting places
from one end of the state to another.
He has had them respond one hun
dred percent and he has had them
turn his pleas down fiat. He knows
the farmers like a book.
Forty years ago dairying was in
it's infancy in New Zealand Al
most all dairy factories were privat-
ely owned and operated" said Prof.
Theo. Macklin in his address. To
stimulate quality and promote pro-
gress cooperative organization was
urged by public leaders. It's adop
ton and growth transformed the lit
tie Island Nation into the worlds
greatest dairy product exporter. The
rise of Cooperative organization in
local factory associations and their
later federation and amalgamation Is
striking story of cooperative YER
sus private conflict. But in spite of
this, the rise of cooperation has been
the growth of quality product and of
modern responsible and effective
butter and cheese merchandising"
"The remarkable results which
New Zealand dairymen have gained
by diligent effective cooperative or
ganization and its business manage
ment can be won by Wisconsin farm
ers. The roadway is that of active
ly cooperating and making use of
capable business management.
These are the goals toward which all
cooperative groups are striving"
