TREASURY DEPT. DOESN'T
 LIKE BANK PUBLICITY

in some months. Officials know all about "the Putnam case" and don't have to be sehooled in it's details by newspaper men look ing for information. They are not pleased with the affair. es- peeially as more careful work on the part of their agents might possibly have exposed the trouble sooner.
 They don't want to talk about it. and about all of the exposur- es have come from Connecticut, not Washington. Even now treasury officials are secretive and talk about matters that should not be given publicity" and try to give the impression that there k little to be said, Even after publication of the matter twice in The Patriot, the treasury department is hesitant about committing itself regard ing the alleged bad loans made by the bank. for which a compromise settlement is now being sought, with the possibility that suit may be instituted against the bank directors in an effort to recover this loss of about Sl25,- GOO to the depositurs,

 Executives Make Statement
 The following statement was given out by the state executives yesterday following their conference:
 At a conference held in the office of the governor this afternoon. the matter was discussed thoroughly in reference to the matter of state secur- ities that are in the state vault
 Tt was the unanimous opinion of the state officials that the state does not desire to hold any securities that do not belong to it legally. The ques- tion of legality to be decided by the courts. If 1t is found that the state has in it's possession securities that do not legally belong to 1t, the officials do not believe that the state would want to be a party to hold securities that might have been acquired illegal ly. On the other hand. the state off cials will exhaust every effort to pro tect the states interests and will pro- ceed to secure all possible information obtainable regarding any transactions covering the securities in question. A certain procedure was decided upon to obtain this information which seems unwise to disclose at this time The public can rest assured. however. that the state officials recognize their re- sponsibility and are doing everything within their power to assist in unrav- cling the various transactions leading up to the present situation.
 Additional information will be giv- en out from time to time that will not be incompatible 10 the states interests. On the facts as they appear now there is no justification of the states sur the securities in its posses sion and so far as it appears GUnnec- ticut has only the securities that it bought and paid for.'
 The state executives present were Governor John H. TrumbuH Frrasur- CT Ernest l.. Rogers. Deputy Treasur- CT Thomas H. Judd. and Attorney General Frank F Hcaly

MISS LEssARD, RED CROSS NURSE, MAKES STATEMENT UPON REQUEST AND CAuSTICALLY CRITIcISEs THE POLICY OF THE PUBLIC HEALTH NURSE DEPART MENT OF THE ORGANIZATION IN PUTNAM.
Member of Committee States That WhoHeaed Support Has
 Been Given and Deplores Statement Being Made.

Miss Ceceha Lessard, for the past five years public health nurse under the supervision of the Red Cross As soeiation. has resigned.
 l. is understood that the resiE- nation of Miss Lessard is not vOl- untary one and a letter she has ad- dressed to the public, through The Patriot. after a statement had bean requested, bears osst this sarposition.
 Miss Lessard complains of lack of cooperation in her work and dis. couragement through lack of support. She also complains of meddlesome suggestion by too many people and of the fact that one or two people dictate the policy of the service.
 Denied by Members
 On the other hand member ef the committee directly in charge of this division of Red Cross work in Putnam stated this morning that all possible cooperation and considera= tion had been given the nurse and that it was q mistake for her Go take the attitude she has assumed. This committee member felt that Miss Les sard had been iil advised by some one or else would not have publicly criticised the association or it's mem hers
 The letter of Miss Lessard is as follows:
 "You have asked me about my re signation l am very glad to give you the facts just as they are
 Who Is to Blame

SCENE OF BANK CASE
 SHIFTS TO HARTFORD
GOVERNOR LAKE HAD INTERVIEW WITH STATE TREAS URER AND ORDERED BONDS DELIVERED FORTH
 WITH.-WERE RECEIVED IN 4s HOURS
Executives Meet and Make StatemenDo Desire to Hold
 Securities Not Entitled To-

The scene of activities regarding the transactions of c. Harold Gilpat- rie. former cashier of the First Ma tional Bank of futnam, have shifted to Hartford and Is centered about the state treasurer's office.
 It is stated that suspicious cireum- stances indicating that the state treas urer took advantage of the position of his office soon after he assumed 1t in 1919 are now under investigation.
 The alleged contention that the for mer state treasurer removed bonds to the value of s330.000 has been chal- lenged and a statement made that not q single security was ever taken from the Capitol by Gilpatric.
 It has also been disclosed during the week that former Deputy State Treasurer Charles F. Sumner became SO nervous about some of the treas urer's bond transactions early in 1921 that he consulted with Governor Ev- erett J. Lake about them.
 Orders Bonds Delivered
 The governor had an interview with the state treasurer and ordered the treasurer to deliver certain bonds which had been ordered through the Putnam bank without delay. The bonds were received at the state treas ury within forty-eight hours. It is thought that possibly the sudden ne- cessity of purchasing these bonds may have led to the use of money other than that belonging to the state.
 Decision to proceed to a careful in- yestigation of Liberty Bond transac- tions carried on by Gilpatric during the entire period of his administration as state treasurer was made at a con- ference Thursday of Governor Trum- bull State Treasurer Rogers and At torney General Healy. The action of State Treasurer Rogers q week ago in haltine an investigation of treasury securities by an accounting firm was approved and an agreement reached ta discontinue that investigation. \ ebeckap will be made by the state treasury department itself while At torney General Healy pursues an in- qHiry to determine the reasonableness

 Unexpected

John 0. Fox died at the Massachu- sets General Hospital. Tuesday af teruoon about four o'clock. and the body arrived in Putnam Wednesday morning Funeral services are being conducted from the home this after noon.
 Mr Fox had been in poor health for some time. having suffered several at faeks and passed through one or two serious Illnesses. His last Illness be- gan some six weeks ago, and it was finally decided to remove him to St Nincenta Hospital. Worcester. From there he was removed to the hospital m Boston where an operation was per formed last week Thursday by Dr. Mixter, one of the foremost surgeons of New England. No hope was held out for his ultimate recovery following the operation. and several days before he died unfounded rumors of his death reached this city. The citizens of Putnam were prepared to hear that the end had come, and when news that he had passed away reached here Tuesday afternoon st created sorrow and regret. but no surprise.
 No man in Putnam was more wide ly known or more highly respected than was MT. Fox. He was born in the town, was identified with it's po- lisical, ciyic and social life, was one Of is leading business men, and he so lived that ali were his friends. regard less of politics, nationality or reiig- ious faith.
 Soul of Honesty
 Mir. Fox was fair in his dealings and in treatment of his fellow men. He was the soul of honor and honesty. I hat his word was as good as his bond, as the saying is, was evidenced in q little story of a real estate dtai in which he figured years ago told the day before his death by man from q neighboring town.
 MT. Fox had q piece of land to sell in the village of Dayville. The rep-l resentative citizen of the town, who told the story, asked the price and was told that it was $500. The citizen offered $450 and Nr Fox replied, You can have it" There was no writing passed between buyer and seller at the time. The buyer was starting on q western trip. Mir. Fox said he would have the deed ready when the buyer returned. Within the hour after the verbal agreement was reached another man. desiroua of own ing the piece of land. met Mir Fox and offered him $l50 more than the first purchaser. .r. FuE was not legally bound to carry out the agreement made with the first man, but he gave this 10 thought. T have sold the
