He was employed as a water meter reader for the Town of Lake at the time he went into the service in June, 1943. He was assigned to the Headquarters & Service Company of the 167th Engineer Combat Battalion eventually rising to the rank of corporal. The 167th did basic training in Mississippi and then maneuvers in Louisiana. They went ashore on Utah beach. The 167th was attached to Patton's Third Army where the unit helped bridge the Moselle River and then went on to help with crossing the Rhine. Alex Sokolowski was not killed by enemy fire. Sadly, he was killed by an American bullet when a companion's gun accidently discharged. He left behind a wife and three young children in Milwaukee.</span><br />

For most of his life, Louis Kotecki could have been the hero of a <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horatio_Alger,_Jr." target="_blank">Horatio Alger</a> novel. The son of Polish immigrants, he rose, seemingly overnight, from newspaper boy to one of the highest positions in Milwaukee government. Although part of his rise was attributable to fortunate timing, it was mostly due to hard, conscientious work and honesty. Those attributes kept him in office for 25 years, almost an eternity in politics. However, in the end, it was trying to live up to the "rags to riches" myth that may have been his undoing. <br />
<br />
Louis Kotecki was from a family that was one of the earlier Polish families in Milwaukee. His parents, Albert Kotecki, and Barbara (Kurzawski) Kotecki were both from Koźmin. Whether they knew each other in Koźmin is not known because they were not married until July 14, 1872, when they were both living in Chicago. Reportedly, they only stayed in Chicago two years before moving to Milwaukee where Albert continued in his career as a tailor. (However, the census records for Louis Kotecki, born on July 8, 1880, consistently indicate that he was born in Illinois.)<br />
<br />
Louis was one of twelve children born to Albert and Barbara. He was educated in Milwaukee, attending public and parochial schools and a private high school. He had an early drive to make something of himself. He started work at the age of 14 as a paperboy. At the age of 18, he enlisted into the Army and became a bugler during the Spanish-America War.<br />
<br />
He began is political career in 1902 when he was elected as a Constable. In 1906, he was appointed as Justice of the Peace, a position which he held for the next six years.<br />
<br />
The political climate in Milwaukee in 1912 was ideal for the advancement of an ambitious young man. The election of the Socialist <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emil_Seidel" target="_blank">Emil Seidel</a> as mayor in 1910 had shocked the traditional parties, so much so that the Republics and Democrats came together to nominate a combined non-partisan slate of candidates. Louis Kotecki was lucky enough to chosen for the position of Comptroller, the city's chief financial officer. (In getting this nomination, he actually beat out his future father-in-law, Stephen Pozorski.) His ethnicity may have been a factor in being chosen for this position. For the 22 years preceding the 1912 election (beginning with Roman Czerwinski, <a href="http://milwaukeepolonia.blogspot.com/2012_03_01_archive.html#8353200296426338224" target="_blank">Featured Profile #10</a>) the post of Milwaukee City Comptroller had been almost constantly held by men of Polish extraction, so much so that the position became known as "the Polish Mayor." After the final polling, Kotecki's 43,506 votes won that election over the 29,701 garnered by the Socialist incumbent candidate, Carl P. Dietz.<br />
<br />
Kotecki would not loose any of the next seven election. For the next, the next 21 years, he would serve Milwaukee as it's chief financial officer. To give you some perspective, during his time as Comptroller of Milwaukee, the country lived through the presidential terms of Taft, Wilson, Harding, Coolidge, and Hoover.<br />
<br />
Through World War I, Women's Sufferage, Prohibition and the Roaring Twenties. Kotecki guided the Milwaukee finances earning a reputation as an efficient administrator who followed the rules and tried to put Milwaukee on a secure financial footing. According to the <em>Milwaukee Journal</em>, during Kotecki's tenure, many important laws effecting Milwaukee's financial condition were passed, including "the taxation readjustment law which placed the city on a cash basis in 1933: elimination of bond issues for city expenditures such as street paving, dredging and other recurring items; substitution of a direct tax when deemed advisable for any bond issue placed in the budget; levy of a tax to pay uncollected taxes, preventing an annual deficient from this cause, and the city amortization fund, designed to retire the city debt."<br />
<br />
During this period, he also found time to woo and wed Harriet Pozorski and to father and nurture two daughters.<br />
<br />
At the time of his election, Kotecki did not have any special education or experience with sophisticated financial dealings. However, he knew enough to employ competent subordinates and to let them do their jobs. One of these employees was William Wendt. Wendt had originally been appointed as a Clerk in the office in 1911 by Carl Dietz. His original appointment had been in violation of the civil service rules. But in the next year, he took the exam and easily passed. Kotecki made him chief clerk in 1914, and then appointed him Deputy Comptroller in 1919. They also became close friends.<br />
<br />
Through Kotecki's wise financial management, Milwaukee was in reasonably good shape even when the Great Depression hit in 1929. Newspapers around the world praised Kotecki's management as proved by the fact that Milwaukee was still solvent when innumerable other cities were suffering severe financial distress.<br />
<br />
However, the Great Depression wrecked havoc with Kotecki's personal finances - the Great Depression and the myth that had grown up about his rages to riches story. The problem was that people would come to him thinking that he was richer than he was. They would ask him to help them in their businesses, and Louis was loathe to turn them away. The end result was that when the Great Depression hit, Kotecki had much of his wealth tied up in community businesses. When those businesses failed, Kotecki lost all his investments. Worse, the people who had also lost money from those businesses came knocking on Kotecki's door, looking to have their losses made whole. Kotecki felt that, for the purposes of his reputation, he could not turn these people away, even if he was not legally responsible for the debt, so he did all he could to cover their losses as well.<br />
<br />
He might have withstood all of this if his honesty and competency had not been called into question. In some years, the Milwaukee finances had been run so competently that the city's budget was actually in surplus. The common council directed the city treasurer, John I. Drew, to invest the surplus in federal bonds. All that was well in theory, but when the economy turned sour and money ran short, questions began to be raised. Why did John I. Drew do all his transactions through one bank, the Liberty State Bank? Why, when the city had to borrow money at 6% , did Mr Drews leave $160,000 on deposit at the Liberty State Bank when it was only earning 2 1/2%? As investigators dug deeper, they discovered even more troubling facts. Eventually, Drew, who had been the City Treasurer from 1916 to 1932, was indicted on embezzling $500,000 of the city funds. It was alleged that Drew conspired with Isaac J. Rosenberg, President of the Liberty State Bank, to skim money off the purchase of the bonds by making the bonds appear to have been more expensive then they actually were, and then pocketing the difference.<br />
<br />
Although Kotecki was not implicated in the alleged scheme, he came under fire for not discovering it sooner. In vain, Kotecki argued that the city treasurer was an independent elected position, and that the city comptroller was not responsible for its oversight. He also argued that when the investigation began, it was his office that supplied much of the information to implicate Drews. These arguments did not persuade the grand jury and Kotecki was indicted for criminal malfeasance in failing to properly supervise the treasurer. Kotecki was arrested on March 6, 1933.<br />
<br />
Although released on bail, Kotecki fell into his own, personal great depression. Not only were creditors hounding his every minute, but he felt keenly the loss or respect in the community and the damage to his reputation caused by the indictment. Moreover, the grand jury testimony of Wendt was perceived by Kotecki as being a stab in the back.<br />
<br />
Saturday, July 8, 1933, was Kotecki's 53rd birthday. On previous birthdays, he had been surrounded by well-wishers and admirers. That day, he spent alone in his office, surrounded by his bills and his black thoughts. It must have seemed to Kotecki that there was only one way to relieve his mental distress.<br />
<br />
Three days later he took action. In the middle of the afternoon on July 11th, Wendt was in his office. He had just picked up the phone to take a call when he noticed Kotecki in the room. Although Wendt did not see it, Kotecki raised the .38 caliber pistol in his hand and fired, striking Wendt in the head. Kotecki then turned and headed back to his own office. Before he got there, he had already put the gun to his own head and fired.<br />
<br />
Although Wendt's wound was serious, he would recover and go on to become Comptroller. Kotecki did not die instantly. He lingered, unconscious, until the next morning when he died with his wife and children in attendance.<br />
<br />
Investigators at the scene found several bills on Kotecki's desk. These were just a small sampling of the many bills that had hounded Kotecki over the last several months, if not years. One of the bills on Kotecki's desk was a chilling indication of how bad things had become for him. It was from the city waterworks department for the incredibly small amount of $1.76. Nevertheless, stamped on the bill was the dire warning:<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<strong>Final notice - if not paid on or before July 7, your water will be turned off.</strong></div>
<br />
The indictment against Kotecki was cancelled within hours of his death. His widow, Harriet (Porzorski) Kotecki pushed hard for the trial of John Drews because she was sure the facts brought forward in that trial would prove her husband innocent. However, it was not to be. John Drews had been in frail health for some time; he had actually been arrested while in the hospital. His trial was repeatedly postponed because of his ill health. He eventually died of a heart attack in July, 1934 without ever having been brought to trial.<br />
<br />
******************************<br />
<br />
In October, 1934, a group of people gathered in Kosciuszko Park to unveil a plague commemorating the life of Louis M. Kotecki. Among them were city officials, relatives, and friends. Rev. Waclaw Kruszka gave a fitting tribute for the fallen man when he said,<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<em>Louis Kotecki may not have been a saint, but neither was he a criminal.</em></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<em>Therefore, we do not dishonor him as a criminal nor honor him as a saint, </em></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<em>but we do honor him as a good and faithful servant of the people.</em></div>

<br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">*His name has been spelled in various sources as "Ertmann," "Erdmann," "Ertman," "Erdman," and even "Erthmen" and "Artmann." It is spelled in the article as "Ertmann" which is also the spelling used on his tombstone. However, his wife and children seemed to have spelled it consistently as "Erdmann" which is why that spelling is used on the tree.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">**I am not sure as to what "Jadwigówa" is referring. My best guess is that it is a reference to the neighborhood around St. Hedwig (Sw. Jadwiga) Church.</span><br />

Adalbert Erdmann was the maternal grandfather of John G. Kaminski (<a href="http://milwaukeepolonia.blogspot.com/2015_07_01_archive.html#2363521987796133590" target="_blank">Featured Profile #45</a>). John Kaminski told the story that as a young boy he watched the seagulls soaring at the lakefront and that he told his grandfather that he would one day soar like them. Adalbert Erdmann may very well be the grandfather mentioned in that quaint story.Dick R.http://www.blogger.com/profile/17733964233320259487noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8361356514143595689.post-77731358761761231352015-08-06T05:58:00.001-04:002015-08-06T06:35:38.913-04:00Status Update - August, 2015<strong>New Points of Origin:</strong><br />

<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
Co-Ordinates: Unknown - There are two towns with similarly spelled names: Zirkwitz (aka Cirkevitz and Cirkwica) in Pomorskie, and Cerekwica (German: Cirkwicz) in Silesia. However, both of these towns lie well outside the old province of Poznan. Therefore, it could be a reference to Cerekwica (German: also "Cerekwica"), which is 5 kilometers west of Żnin in Kujawsko-Pomorskie.</div>

Kaminski</a> </b>(1893 - 1960)</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>The next time you visit the terminal at General Mitchell International Airport take a look at the old <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curtiss_Model_D" target="_blank">"pusher" plane</a> located in the concession area. It is a replica of a plane built in 1911 by the Curtiss Aeroplane Company of Hammonsport, NY. It is called a "pusher" because the motor is mounted behind the pilot and faces backward, pushing the air away from the plane. It is a fragile contraption made of baling wire, bamboo and cotton fabric. The steering mechanism is primitive. The pilot is in a harness and turns the plane by leaning either to the right or left of the open seat. Like all planes of that era, it could be a death trap. If something went wrong, the engine coughed out, a propeller snapped, the wind blew a little too hard, then the plane would hit the ground, usually pilot-first. This was the plane flown by Milwaukee native, and the first Polish-American aviator, John G. Kaminski.<br />

John Kaminski was born on the Eastside of Milwaukee to <a href="http://www.milwpp.tribalpages.com/tribe/browse?userid=milwpp&view=0&pid=19327&ver=29937" target="_blank">Stanley Kaminski</a>, a grocer, and <a href="http://www.milwpp.tribalpages.com/tribe/browse?userid=milwpp&view=0&pid=19328&ver=29937" target="_blank">Mary (Erdman/Ertmann) Kaminski.</a> Growing up, one of his favorite pursuits was to go down to the lakefront and watch the soaring seagulls. He told his grandfather that one day, he was going to fly like them. John was just shy of ten years when the Wright brothers shocked the world by showing humans how to fly. Suddenly, his dream of soaring like the gulls became a possibility.<br />
<br />
By 1911, John had made his way to San Diego and the Curtiss Aviation School. When he graduated in 1912, <a href="http://www.wisconsinhistory.org/Content.aspx?dsNav=N:4294963828-4294955414&dsRecordDetails=R:IM10215" target="_blank">his pilot's license</a> was the 121st issued in the world, and he, reportedly, became the youngest person licensed to fly a plane. (Kaminski often told people he was only 16 when he got his license, but he was really 18.) Returning home, he became the first licensed pilot in Wisconsin, where he recorded other "firsts." For example, when he bought a Curtiss Pusher in 1912 for $5,000, he became the first Wisconsin resident to own a plane. (That craft, named <a href="https://www.eaa.org/en/eaa-museum/museum-collection/aircraft-collection-folder/1912-curtiss-a-1-pusher-sweetheart---n24034" target="_blank">"Sweetheart"</a> was lovingly restored by Dale Crites of Waukesha and Earl Cox of Hartland, and is now on exhibit at the Experimental Aircraft Museum in Oshkosh. There is a replica is at the Smithstonian in Washington.) When he touched down with that plane two miles north of North Lake, he became the first pilot to land in Waukesha County.<br />

Back in those days, human flight was still awe-inspiring. People would travel miles just to have the privilege of watching another man fly. After graduation, John spent three years flying with the "Three Ring Aerial Circus." He was often hired by State Fairs and such to take his plane on short flights so that the people in the grandstands could watch. For example, in May, 1913, a large crowd gathered in Akron, Ohio to watch Kaminski fly. Even though strong winds kept Kaminski on the ground through most of the day, the crowd waited patiently. At five o'clock, Kaminski decided he couldn't disappoint the crowd. Against the advice of his helpers who warned that the wind was still too strong, Kaminski took off. When he was still low in the air, the spectators could see him being rocked in his open seat by the high winds. Somehow, he managed to control his plane and take it up to 5,000 feet. Then he shut off the engine and let it glide back to earth. Although the spectators had waited long to see Kaminski fly, they probably considered it well worth the time. <br />
<br />
High winds played the part in another Kaminski adventure. This is how he recalled it:<br />

Another July 4th flight did not end so well. In fact, it resulted in one of his closest calls. It occurred on July 4, 1914 in Tomahawk. As John related it:<br />
<br />
<i>At Tomahawk, I had to take off directly from the street in the heart of the city. My first flight in the morning went off without mishap. In the afternoon, however, a stiff wind sprang up and blew sand and dust around. The city fire department was called out to wet the street and lay the dust. As I started my machine, it began to skid on the wet pavement. I had intended to fly above some high tension wires which crossed the street about a block away. Because of the wet pavement which caused my plane to skid, I saw that I would have to get under the wires. Both sides of the street were lined with people watching the exhibition. As I hit the street intersection traveling at about 70 miles per hour, a cross wind caught my plane and swerved it toward the crowd of spectators. In order to avoid plunging into them, I banked my plane and hit a telegraph post with my left aileron and plunged my nose into the ground. I was knocked unconscious but was soon revived with very little damage to myself but quite a bit of damage to my plane.</i> (A <a href="http://www.wisconsinhistory.org/Content.aspx?dsNav=Ny:True,Ro:0,N:4294963828-4294955414&dsNavOnly=N:1135-4294963829&dsRecordDetails=R:IM10154&dsDimensionSearch=D:%22John+Kaminski%22,Dxm:All,Dxp:3,N:1135-4294963829&dsCompoundDimensionSearch=N:1135-4294963829,D:%22John+Kaminski%22,Dxm:All,Dxp:3" target="_blank">photograph of his wrecked plane</a> and other Kaminski photographs can be found on the website of the Wisconsin Historical Society.)<br />

In addition to flying for large audiences, John would also earn money by taking individual passengers up in his plane. He charged $25 for such flights, which was a princely sum in that era. Besides having the cash, the passengers also had to have nerves of steel because there was no passenger seats on the plane. The passengers had to sit on the wing and just hold onto the struts for dear life.<br />

Women passengers had to have their skirts tied. One time Kaminski forgot to do this, and it nearly ended in disaster. As Kaminski described it:<br />
<br />
<i>Her skirt flew over her head and she was screaming bloody murder. She was afraid to let go of the struts to put her skirt down and I was afraid she would smother. I tried to pull the skirt down and the ship, which was very difficult to handle with the unevenly balanced load, started to spin. I quit my skirt-pulling and managed to save us. I can't tell which of us was the most embarrassed.</i><br />
<br />
Another "first" for Kaminski was the first successful hydroplane ascent from McKinley beach. (He thus really did emulate the gulls that he had admired as a child.) He accomplished that on October 11, 1914 in a test flight for an exhibition that was to be held the next Sunday. The hydroplane he was using for that flight was already reputed for being jinxed. The first owner of the plane had been Art Smith of Fort Wayne. He had used it to ferry away his sweetheart in the first elopement ever by airplane. Unfortunately, the escapade ended badly when the plane crashed and both lovers wound up in the hospital. The plane was then purchased by Albert (or Harold) Jensen of West Allis. He repaired the plane and tried to fly it, but in his first flight he got no further than 100 feet before he struck a factory building. When he got out of the hospital, he again repaired the craft. Several attempts, and several crashes later, Jensen decided that for the Milwaukee exhibition, he was going to have Kaminski fly the plane. On the day of the event, several thousand people crowded the lake shore to watch. Kaminski had planned to take off, fly to Bay View and then return. Unfortunately, the jinxed plane held true-to-form. According to news reports of the time, the steering mechanism failed on take-off and the out-of-control plane rammed the Milwaukee Yacht Club pier. Fortunately, neither Kaminski nor the plane must have been damaged badly, because shortly after the accident, Kaminski vowed to try again the next week.<br />
<br />
According to Kaminski, the closest he came to disaster occurred during an exhibition when he was performing stunts. Here's how he told the story:<br />
<br />
<i>I was doing an exhibition loop at 4.000 feet when my motor died. I could see a patch of green and I circled down toward it. But it turned out to be a peach orchard, not a meadow. The trees were in rows 35 feet apart. My wingspan was 26 feet. </i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>I made it between them without touching one. Before I could brake, I was out of the orchard, and I managed to stop in a front yard - right in front of a porch on which sat a nice old couple. They never turned a hair. They'd been watching the stunts, they said, but hadn't expected me to drop in to visit.</i><br />
<br />
As can be garnered from these numerous stories, flying back then was a risking business. The mortality rate was exceedingly high. In a newspaper article in October, 1914, Kaminski said that only he and another individual were still flying from the graduates of his flight school class. In a little over two years, seven classmates had died and four had retired from flying.<br />

But somehow, through luck, or skill, or a combination of both, John kept flying. In 1916, John began training military pilots to fly and in 1917, he joined the Army. He served throughout the war with the 7th Aero Squadron in Panama. (A <a href="http://uwmarchives.tumblr.com/post/102961638281" target="_blank">photo of him in his military uniform</a> and craft can be found in the UWM archives.) Unfortunately, John's eyes started to loose their acuity. John secretly had prescription flight googles made. This allowed him to keep flying, although it made some wonder why he wouldn't let anyone else wear his googles. While still serving as a military pilot in 1919, John's eyes were accidentally splashed with gasoline which further damaged his eyesight. That put an end to his flying career.<br />

John returned to Milwaukee, and he married Nellie Jazdzewski. He joined the post office, serving in the motor vehicle service department. He spent 36 years working there and retired as a supervisor.<br />

But John had one more flight in him. Back in 1912, the gamblers were betting that the remainder of John's life could be measured in days, not decades. He ignored them all, and made a prediction, both about his life, and the progress of flight. Back then, his planes cruised along at 50 mph with a 50 horsepower engine. He wrote to a friend, and predicted that,"By the time I am 79, I'll be flying 500 miles an hour in a 500 horsepower plane." At least part of this prediction came true. In 1955, at age 61, John was taken up in a jet fighter that boasted a 3500 horsepower engine. As the plane cruised along at 550 mph, the pilot handed the controls to John. He was filing once again.<br />
<br />
John died at his home in St. Petersburg, Florida in 1960. His bones now rest in St. Adalbert's, but my guess is that his soul is soaring in the clouds.<br />
