police committee in a paragraph upon
obstructing traffic which says;
"No vehicle shall be allowed TO remain
upon or be driven through any street so

PARKING
PROVISIONS.
The committee places further restric-

"No person having charge or control
OF a vehicle (motor or horse drawn shall
allow the same to stand upon a public
highway or on any other public place
when unattended by some person com
petent to control the same. unless, If
motor vehicle, all the brakes are set and
the motor or engine is stopped, and If
horse drawn. the wheels must be securely
fastened to prevent It from being dragged
faster than n walk. No person without
authority of such person having charge
or control shall climb upon such vehicle
or sound any horn or signalling device
, or attempt to manipulate any Of the
machinery or set such vehicle in motion
or in any way interfere with such vehicle

City officials who in studying traffic
regulation often have discussed prohibit

but generally have come to the conclusion
that indianapolis IS not yet ready for this
move. Several large American cities pro-
hibit parking on heavily laden downtown
streets.

to face approaching traffic from the OPP
poste direction, and shall keep as close
to the left hand side of the highway as
possible"
The police committees ideas differ from
those of persons who regulate traffic in
indianapolis in several particulars. Some
plans new to this city are advocated.
1t is recommended that traffic signs be
in black letters on a white background.
Indianapolis uses hodgepodge Of black
on white, black and red on whit black
on yellow aand white on green. The
report says that the black on white color
scheme is more distinguishable both
day and night.
LIGHTS ARE
COMPELLING.
Traffic signaling by lights instead of
by semaphores is recommended rs be
Ing extremely effective for the reason
that the lights command attention and
are compelling in observance" Indian
apolis has been trying out lights on top
of silent policemen with sad results,
mounting them a concrete base weigh
Ing several hundred pounds failing to
keep motorists from knocking them down
The city also uses lanterns with red and
green globes on top Of traffic semaphOres
at night. The police committee recon-
mends that red, green and yellow lights
be used, red to indicate danger, as for
instance when fire apparatus is coming
and all traffic is commanded to stop +,
green for direction and yellow for eau
ton.
Standardized hand signalling by
drivers is needed throughout the country
so that the motorist Of Indianapolis VIII

Chicago or Louisville The system rec
commended IS to hold the left arm out

to hold the left arm out pointed upward
for right turn and the left arm out
I pointing toward the pavement for a stop.
The hand signals here are prescribed by
state law and are effective all over Indi-
ana. Comparatively few people follow
them and probably few know just what
they are. The Indiana system is the left
arm held straight out for left turn. the
left arm held out with the forearm point
/ ing upwards at right angle for a right
turn and the left arm held out straight
and moved up and down for stop.
