How- %ver. before they carried out this plan, citizens of Polish extraction, under the able leadership of Father Bojnowski and Judge Gaffney, who were incorporators of the bank, de- cided to take over its management and re-established it in the north- western section. Professor S. Andrulewicz, present editor of the Catholic 1.eader. was named presi- dent and he held this position from the year 1917 up to 1924, After the change, activities of the concern took a new lease of life and it grew rapidly until today. although not a very large institution, is considered a very strong bank. financially.

It shared the space with the Polish Loan and In- dustrial corporation. In 1924 it was decided the quarters were inade- quate and the bank rented the store at 121 Broad street, its present lo- cation.

U.NOTE (Continued from First Page) members of the national committeo opposed to prohibition are ,almost to a man, members of the same poli- tical party as President Hoove; were adherents in the election which resulted in his elevation to the presi- dency and very likely were contribu- tors to the political party whose mpalgn banner he carried to vic | tory. That they are inclined to he | anything but friendly toward our president is rather hard to believe. “The state of Connecticut favored President Hoover with a substantial majority over his opponent in the last election and has consistentl favored the party whose candidite he was, Yot the state of Connecti- cut has refuscd to ratify the 18th amendment. 1Is it reasonable (o suppose that political —sources op- | posed to President Hoover's party could have engineered such a comi- plete turn-about? Says Prohibition Has Failed “We who recognize the evils of the prohibition act have no argu- ment with President Hoover when as quoted by Mrs. DeY Prohibition is for the protection of the American home. I wish it to succeed.” The sponsors of this iaw very likely held high hopes that | their legislation would protect the | American home and wished it to succeed. But it has done neither; it has not protected the home, but has introduced new and more dangerous | ovils tham we have ever known be- fore: it has not been a success, hut on the other hand has been a r failure. costing billions of dol for half-hearted efforts at enfo | ment, breeding contempt for author ity and for our censtitution.

And all of this is without compensation. How Relief May Be Gained “I know nothing of any spent by the association against the prohibition act, to elect Mr. Hoover's opponent in the last election.

The phy- sical ailments trailing prohibition have resulted from the inferior | grades of stimulants and beverages | which prohibition has brought the market.
