Extract

Sawon and Warzecha established in (2) the general form of a subalgebra of codimension 1 in a commutative Banach algebra with identity. A short and elegant proof of their result was later given by Detraz in(1). This note is intended to show that an even more elementary proof is possible and which has the advantage that no use is made of the existence of maximal ideals.
