D0bR0WoLSEI MAY SUE
 NEWSPAPER FOR ISLANDER
Leader in Property Owners Assocta- tiOn Rescnts Criticism of His
 Activities.

Limitations of islander suit against the Polish weekly publica- ton "Promien" were made yesterday by William Dobrowolski. who it IS reported, has already made pre- liminary steps towards the action which will involve $25,000 damages.
 The matter was brought up at special meeting of the committees of the New Britain Citizens Property Owners association of which Do- browolsk is president, held at his home and it is reported that he had definitely decided to bring the action and has already engaged an attorney to prepare the complaint.
 Stephan Zapaka vice president of the organization, explained that the situation cropped up from certain statements published in the Pro- mien" during the past few weeks, criticizing Dobrowolski and the as- sociation. It is understood that Stan ley Uchalik. treasurer of the or ganization will bring a similar suit. because of certain slanderous state ments contained in the newspapers articles. Uchalik however will not act upon the matter until after ex- pressing his opinion of the publica- tion at the next regular meeting of the association which will be held Friday evening, May A.
 Zapatka stated last night that a certain amount of animosity has arisen recently between the new or ganization and political club and that the publication has been sid ing with the political club.
 The "Promien" is printed in Bos- ton and is distributed here by Jo- seph Bienkowski. a jeweler. of 23 Lafayette street. The committees of the association will hold another meeting Friday evening at the home of Dobrowolski. at which time ar arrangements will be made for what is to be done in the matter at the next regular meeting.
