served and no VlOlatoFS nave been dpple- hended since the ordinance has become effective. The 30-minute parking feature is generally respected without police re- hinder, but the ordinance is applicable to only one side of the street witEAn the prescribed sections. It is question whether the expected results attain in 1 yAgard to a relief of the congested trathc conditions in Dixon square and adjoining l streets There is no time limit for park 1 ing machines from the Memorial and l-i- | brary building to and up High street ana l beyond on that particular side Of the street In eonsequence there is congestion and without violation of the ordinance. | Automobilists are free to park ma chimes, for instance, directly in front or | the postoffice and for an unlimited time, | with the result that the space IS some times occupied with machines two and 1 three abreast, making the federal build 1 ing practically unapproachahle by direct | route by automobilists who have husi- ! ness with the postoffice. This condition prevails all the way up High street as l far as the residence of pr. Scanlon. At this point the street narrows and makes 1 parking unsafe by reason of close prox- i unity to the trolley tracks.
 | The section from the Memorial and Li- l brary building and the postoffice has been designated as a public stand for public service automobiles, and the operators claim the exclusive use of that space. This claim is disputed by owners of pri- vate cars who park machines there, and the orders of the jitneymen to move on' are unheeded by local people.
