THE case Of the Houston hackman who was ar,
rested for blocking the street in front Of store
illustrates the attitude OF this city in respect to
this vcNatious problem. The streets are for trai-
61 and the merchant had a clear right to demand
that customers in vehicles be afforded space
TO approach his store. Under the action Of the
city council repeating the ordinance prohibiting
the hacks from standing on Main street. the
hacknau was perfectly justified in the view that
he had a right to be there Obviously. two
bodies or tao vehicles can not occupy the same
space az the same time, but the city councils
reversal OF it's policy is a declaration of the
paradox that Main street belongs both to the
public and TO the hackman. 1t is to he hoped that
this incident will lead to a revival of the ques
ton and to a rational settlement.
