DR.. George A. Alexander was the first
to make a deposit here while The
Redwood Gazette was a close second.
Many customers who had been stor-
ing checks and currency in safety de-
posit vaults during the holiday i'm
mediately placed such money on de-
posit.
Old Bills Circulate
During the bank holiday which
started with the proclamation of the
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS March and was
made nationwide by President Roose-
velt, many old bills which have been
boarded for months came out of hid
ing. All persons holding gold coins
or gold bank notes have been ordered
by the government to deposit them at
once. No bank is allowed to give out
gold or gold certificates for boarding
or foreign exchange.
Depositors and bankers alike wore
new smiles Wednesday as banking
operations were resumed, indicating
that the crisis is past and that busi-
ness will increase on an even keel.
The holiday was accepted in the best
possible spirit as eye witnesses Of the
closing here will testify, but the bet
ter news Of unrestricted opening was
even more kindly accepted.
Congratulate Ewart
Customers of the bank were quick
to congratulate L. R. Ewart, vice
president, and expressed willingness
to cooperate which he regards as the
true American spirit and certain to
cause the bank to grow and prosper.
w. w. Klingman, president of the
bank here is vice president of the
Equitable Life Assurance Society of
the United States with headquarters
at New York. He was a boyhood
friend of Mr.. Ewart and later start
ed his insurance career in Redwood
county. The bank here is the only
one in which he holds stock. It was
founded in May 1928 and has been
very conservative on investments.
Under the Roosevelt plan, Federal
reserve banks opened Monday, banks
in cities having clearing houses were
opened Tuesday and other sound
banks resumed operations Wednes-
day.

 Winnie Judd
(continued from Page D

(Continued from Page D
 Mrs Judd, the states chief witt ness against Halloran, charged Hailoran with aiding her in dis- posing of the bodies of Mrs Agnes Leroi and Miss Hedvig Samuelson.
 Mrs Judd, who'is under sentence of death, claimed she shot In self defense.
 Judge Niles had said yesterday that the only evidence at the hear ing indicated Mrs Judd Killed in self defense.
 Unless the state could prove murder was committed, 1t could not hope to hold Halloran as an accessory after murder, he pointed out.
 He said he wanted to hear from the state on this phase today, but when the hearing was resumed he reversed his ruling.
 Frank o. Smith, attorney Tor Halloran, said he wished to at- tempt to impeach testimony of Mrs Judd.
 T have been convinced since the beginning" he said, "that If we could get the first statement she made after her arrest we could gel the truth of the matter"
 He presented newspaper articles written under Mrs Judd's signature which read: Tt has been charg- ed that had an accomplice, either before, or after, the actual tragedy That is not true"

Officials Plan E Making Appeal To
 Connecticut Co.
Constant Traffic SnarIs at This Point Force Action Hopeful of Favorable Answer From Heads 0l Transportation Concern


 q An appeal is to be made by city officials to the Connecticut com pany to cooperate with members of the board of police commission CTS in eliminating a number of traffic snarls. One of the most important under consideration is the abandonment by the trolley company of its present system of looping Naugatuck bound cars up Grand street to Exchange place. Grand street, one of the narrowest streets in the city and incidentally one of the busiest, provides no end of confusion by trolley cars con- testing the right of way with auto mobiles. The intersection of Bank and Grand streets is also consid- bred a dangerous one for trolley cars to negotiate during busy traf- fic hours.
 It has been proposed several times to widen Grand street but police officials after studying the situation have come to the conclu- sion that the elimination of the
