AuTOISTS WIN PROTEST
AGAINST TRAFFIC RULE
New Ordinance Changed to Per-
nit Cars to Stand 80 Min
uteS Without Occupant

With only one important change, the
new traffic ordinance will be presented
to the council Tuesday by the legisla-
ton committee This change is that
automobiles may remain standing in
the congestcd district of the city 80
minutes without an occupant, but after
that time they must contain someone
who is competent to handle the ma
chine.
This change was made because of
the roar of protest from auto owners
who declared that the original pro-
vision that an auto could not stand
any length of time without an occu-
pant would necessitate them all hiring
chauffeurs.
The new ordinance provides for the
whistle system of controlling traffic,
and is the chief difference from the
traffic ordinance that is in effect now
When traffic squad policeman blows
his whistle once north and south traf-
tic must stop; when he blows it twice
east and west traffic stops.
This is the system that is i'll vogue
in large cities of the east and has been
found more effective than any other
means that has been tried. The or
dinance provides for more crossings in
the business district to be protected by
traffic squad officers.
