GRINNELL HAS PLAN
TO RELIEVE CONGESTION

]. l.. Grinnell, OF Grinnell Bros.
music house, has written a letter to
the council suggesting an amendment
to the traffic ordinance which would
permit automobiles to stand at an
angle to the curbs In wide streets so
thGt more machines may be accom-
modated in streets where now the ac-
lcommodations are limited because the
ordinance requires that the machines
be placed parallel with the curb.
when standing at an angle there
would still be an abundance OF room
for two or three automobiles to pass
abreast" says Mr.. Grinnell. ION

way Is to leave autos close up to the
curb. g.a.

Mr.. Grinnell says that the systesl
of banking" autos on an angle works
out very we'll In the vicinity of thea

ness men must leave their automo-
biles standing some distance from
where they shop or have their bust
