They claim It Is for the purpose of protecting themselves against those lawyers who are not only dilatory In paying- but.some who do not fiay at all. It would appear at first that all the local lawyers are Included In this category, but such is "not a fact.

There may be one or, two who do not pay the officers, but as a rule New Britain attorneys deal 'fairly with them.
