R.S.A. FRAUDS
FIFTH SCHEMER NOW FOR SENTENCE
A fifth member of the baud of financial experts who have been defrauding the Returned Soldiers’ Association lately pleaded guilty at the Police Court yesterday. Robert Morton, a middle-aged man. admitted that he had attempted to obtain £3 3s from the Returned Soldiers Association by falsely representing that a receipt for £ 6 6s was genuine. On the application of Chief-Detective Hammond, Morton was remanded until Tuesday for sentence, when the other four schemers will also appear. A further charge of being idle and disorderly, and having insufficient lawful means of support, was withdrawn, the chief-detective saying that he would call no evidence. _
