AUTO TRAFFIC PROBLEM
Two-Way Travel Restored In Sec
tions New York For Trial
Associated Press Dispatch1


New York, September 21-Again
they're tinkering with New York's
traffic. The police department long
has been unable to dodge the law Of
physics that two objects can't occu-
py the same space at the same min
ute. And with the number Of auto
mobiles increasing daily and the
crowd of pedestrians holding its own.
worse.
= In the old days, traffic went up and
down Broadway much the same way
1t does in any Main Street the country
over-though with the same hectic
confusion that reigns in the subways
beneath the world famous thorough
fare.
But little while ago it was decided
thSt at night, at hours when most
theater- goers were bound up Man
haitian to their homes, Broadway be-
become a one-way street. Now that
plan has been abandoned. Me-
chants have complained that the
northbound nightly traffic was di
verting to other thoroughfares bust
ness which should come to them.
So Special Police Commissioners
Harris has ruled that for a thirty
day trial period 4wo way traffic shall
be restored-to be regulated by signal
towers such as have been operating
for many months on Fifth Avenue.
Signal lamps atop these towers COM
mand traffic all along Fifth Avenue
to halt or proceed at the same mo-
ment. II a couple of experimental
towers work out all right on Broad
way, the city will be asked to install
more.

in survey reports which have reach
