CHICAGO'S PSYCHOLOGICAL
CHECK ON SPEEDING MOTORISTS

From Van Norden Magazine.
BY accident the Park Commission
ers In Chicago have found out q
trick by which to control motor car
speeders at an extremely moderate
expense. No guard is required to
show himself except at intervals.
There is no mechanism or signaling
this system is simply matter Of
psychology.
At dangerous curves and places
whore boulevards cross street car
tracks the commissioners have
placed little ornamental shelter
houses for the police. The houses
themselves are nearly all that Ia neo-
essary to curb the speed of the mo-
torists who pass them.
Suppose you are running a motor
car and approach one of those shell
ter houses. Maybe there ia police
man inside the shelter. Maybe there
is not. But you never know. In
either case you will very likely slow
down when you pass that shelter,
II you do you are being controlled
by the automatic check"
