NAT TER PUT Up
To Commission

Although the city commission took
no definite action in the matter of the
Adams street parking system at the
regular meeting yesterday morning,
four of them openly expressed them
selves us in favor of the center OF. the
street system. Commissioner Woods be-
ing the only one who did not think ii
was a success. And the commissioners
were backed in their opinion by the
written statements of 4 majority of the
business men and merchants along
Adams street who were strictly in
favor OF the plan as now in vogue.
City Manager Robert \. Craig had
caused a thorough Investigation to be
made of the sentiment Of the business
men, and also as to the actual workings
of the plan. He reduced these findings
to writing and submitted them to the
commission for their consideration.
The report is comprehensive and self
explanatory. Ii follows in full:

February ~. 1911.
Dear Sir; Some weeks ago. Actual
ed by a desire to better traffic condi-
tons and relieve the congestion on the
Wn-town streets. a new system of
parking automobiles was tried as an
experiment. on Adams street between
First street and Second avenue The
plan used as an experiment provided
for the parking OF automobiles in the
middle OF the street. thus leaving the
curbs and sides OF the street clear. Care
are allowed to stop alongside the curbS
for twenty minutes at time this from
our observation being the amour, Il
time ordinarily required for shopper
10 make his purchase in the stores
The object of the new plan was L.
keep the street more open To traffic and
to give access to the cuIbS By persons
desiring to trade in the various estab-
lishmentS along the street X was our
opinion that business along the street
would be improved. as under The new
system customer could drive up 10
the front Of the store at which he de-
sired to trade, have ample time 20 make
his purchases and proceed. whereas
formerly the fronts a. most OF the
stores and offices in these blocks We're
blocked up all Gay long. "a, is now the
condition ON Center street 10y automO-

We believe that tnis system has now
been tried out long enough 10 demon

ment over The old method. and woulsi
be glad TO have an expression of opin-
ion from YOU as 10 its success or fail
