    Northwest Bancorp, MHC, et al.; Acquisitions of Companies Engaged 
    in Permissible Nonbanking Activities
    
        The organizations listed in this notice have applied under Sec.  
    225.23(a)(2) or (f) of the Board's Regulation Y (12 CFR 225.23(a)(2) or 
    (f)) for the Board's approval under section 4(c)(8) of the Bank Holding 
    Company Act (12 U.S.C. 1843(c)(8)) and Sec.  225.21(a) of Regulation Y 
    (12 CFR 225.21(a)) to acquire or control voting securities or assets of 
    a company engaged in a nonbanking activity that is listed in Sec.  
    225.25 of Regulation Y as closely related to banking and permissible 
    for bank holding companies. Unless otherwise noted, such activities 
    will be conducted throughout the United States.
        Each application is available for immediate inspection at the 
    Federal Reserve Bank indicated. Once the application has been accepted 
    for processing, it will also be available for inspection at the offices 
    of the Board of Governors. Interested persons may express their views 
    in writing on the question whether consummation of the proposal can 
    ``reasonably be expected to produce benefits to the public, such as 
    greater convenience, increased competition, or gains in efficiency, 
    that outweigh possible adverse effects, such as undue concentration of 
    resources, decreased or unfair competition, conflicts of interests, or 
    unsound banking practices.'' Any request for a hearing on this question 
    must be accompanied by a statement of the reasons a written 
    presentation would not suffice in lieu of a hearing, identifying 
    specifically any questions of fact that are in dispute, summarizing the 
    evidence that would be presented at a hearing, and indicating how the 
    party commenting would be aggrieved by approval of the proposal.
        Unless otherwise noted, comments regarding each of these 
    applications must be received at the Reserve Bank indicated for the 
    application or the offices of the Board of Governors not later than May 
    20, 1994.
