At the close of business today the
City National Bank In Washington

of its existence, with a creditable
record of banking achievement.
Early in the eighties the need was
felt for a National bank in South
Norwalk. and many citizens got. to—
gether to get I. charter. This was
achieved. and the first directors
ware: John H. Knapp. John H. For-
ris, Tallmadge Baker, Josiah R, Mar-
vin. Edward H. Mathewson. Robert
H. Rowan. Edwin Adams. Andrew J.
Crofut. and Christian Swans.

last named is the only member to-
day alive, and still takes an active
interest in local business matters.
Robert. H. Rowan was the first.
out. and mum exception of
one year when 4&ka forced him
to resign. the office being taken over
by Tulmadge Baker. he held the
chair until his death. ,
John H. Knapp. too. the vice-pres-
ident. held his office until his death
in 1921.
John H. Ferris became president
in October. 1900. and for four years
held the post. until, in January. 190‘.
he was succeeded by E. H. Mathew-
son. who held the post until his death
in 1915.
August 6 of that year he was fol-
lowed by Henry 8. Lockwood. the
present incumbent. ’ Frederick H.
ltowan. son of the first president,
was elected vice-president in 1906.
and has confined much of his time
to the bank's matter until this day.

HARTFORD.1.-—The.lan. virtu-
al starving of Connecticut bootleg-
gers into obedience to the prohibi-
tion amendment is contemplated in
a bill introduced in the legislature
yesterday by Senate Leader Cronin
at the instance of Chief Justice
George W. Wheeler. The bill is a
proposed revision of the stats en-
forcement act. sometimes called the
state Volstead act: carefully prepar-
ed under the direction of the Chief
Justice' and State‘s, Attorneys Al-
corn. Brown and Comiey, who. with
other state's attorneys. will advocate
its adoption by the legislature as a
means that will greatly aid them
in the enforcement of the 18th
Amendment.
To Punish Buyers.
In the effort to famish the boot-
leggers it is proposed to make the
purchase of intoxicating liquor a.
criminal oifense and to punish not
only the rum runners themselves.
but also those who actas convoy-
oven if they ben in other vehicles
running ahead or behind' the
trucks carrying the liquor. If
these provisions had been in the
present law. the prominent Eart-
ford people who were summoned to
court by subpoenas about a yes.
ago as customers of two “society
bootleggers." could have been sent
to Jail with the liquor peddlcrs. As
it Was. the state law provides no
penalty for their action in buying
from the bootleggers.
“There would to no bootlogglng
were there no purchasers" said a
statement by Chief Justice Wheeler
in explanation of the bill. ‘ e
purchaser of inhale-ting nail is
put in the some clan as the Isllcr
in this bill. This is fair play. and
the finance which is always sports-
manllke. will appreciate. I believe
that this Is common justice to seller
and buyer. Very many of the
state judges and prosecutors have
urged this provision. The bribe:
is more Axilty than the bribed. it
is not generally know that the
Volstead act penalizes the purchas-
er of intoxicating liquor.

"it is the one factor that can in-
