Mayor Puts in Woman's Letter.
Mayor Joachim did not appear to be
overly favorable to the plan, but he
had not part in the discussion. He
offered as evidence in the case an un-
signed letter from one Of the women
of the city who protested against the
proposed daylight saving plan. She
said that the women of the city were
opposed to the plan, that they wanted
and did not want to be forced to get
up an hour earlier to prepare break
fast for their husbands or sons. The
mayor told the council that he had re-

Of the council was instructed to draw
an ordinance limiting the parking of
automobiles in the downtown business
districts of the city. Under the plan

allowed to be parked more than fiji

to call attention to the ordinance the
driver will be subject to arrest and
prosecution if he violates the ordi-
nance again.
