College Man Not
 Good Politician
Especial from United Press.)

Especial from United Press.)
 New Haven, Oct. 1.-The college man is not a good politician. according to Lincoln Steffens, author and editor. quoted in the Yale News, today. ''If you ask me why, from my standpoint I consider the American college, in stead of broadening the views of a man, tends greatly to narrow it. The college is a community all by itself. The college man in general seldom leaves college before he is 23 Or "A years old. He comes out of college with the opinion that he knows all.
 Another thing that the college man must break away from before he will be able to sway the masses, is social distinction.
 , 'I say emphatically that the Amer ican college system takes out of the American youth all that inborn dem- ocracy which he ought to be ruler of. The big politicians of today are those who understand and see people"

CITY SAVINGS BANK
 TO REMODEL RATHER
 THAN ERECT BUILDING

At meeting of the trustees of the City Savings Bank, yesterday after noon, the project under consideration of erecting a new bank building north of Fairfield avenue on Main street was given up and it was decided that the more feasible plan is to remodel the present structure at the corner of Main, and Bank streets.
 Half of this structure is now occu- pied by the Connecticut National Bank while it's building at Main and Wall streets is being remodelled When the Connecticut Bank returns to it's own quarters, it is probable that the remodelling of the City Saw ings Bank building will begin.
