SMOKE IN TAxIS NOW
sAHfi' Ordinance Includes Only Street
Gers and Auto Buses.

When is a taxicab not taxicab2
When it is an auto bus. according to
a part OF the city commission.
The doubt over the possibility of
calling q taxicab by that name all the
time or whether a tadcab might be
included in the term auto buses. caused
delay in the city commission proceed
ing this morning to eliminate taxicabs
from the list OF vehicles in the city
in which smoking is to be prohibited.
The commission moved TO strike out
the taxicab section of the ordinance.
on the ground that there has been
much objection to the prohibiting of
smoking in taxicabs. But with the
taxicab section omitted. the ordinance
forbfds smoking in street cars, auto
buses and jitneys"
All commissioners were in favor of
eliminating taxicabs from the prohibit
tive list except Commissioner W. S.
WATSON, who admitted that he voted
for the altered ordinance because he
thought the term auto buses would in
clude taxicabs and therefore make it
unlawful to smoke in taxicabs.
The anti-sm oking in public vehicles
ordinance was introduced by Mayor
Corwine at the commission meeting
last week.

TELL OF CITY PLANNING
Topeka Board Entertains Legislators
at Luncheon Today.


ut Luncheon Today.
Senator's from several Kansas cities
were guests of the Topeka City Plan
ming board at luncheon at the E1ks'
club at noon today The purpose OF
the meeting was to interest the Iegis-
lators in the Importance of city plan
ming legislation TO be considered soon.
Strongly favorable sentiment was
expressed regarding the city planning
legislation by senators from districts
in which are located Wichita. Arkan-
sas City. Parsons. Manhattan. Hutch
inson. Topeka, Kansas City and Nc
Pherson.
The, senate bill providing for the
establishment and maintenance OF
city planning commissions in cities of
the first class. and the zoniRg bill
authorizing cities OF the first class TO
provide for the esta blishment of dis
trfctS or zones to regulate the uses of
property and the construction of
buildings therein. were considered by
the legislators and Topeka city plan
ming board today. Slight objection to
the coming system on the ground that
property rights might be infrinsed
upon was removed when it was made
plain that property owners might APP
peal to the district court in difficulties
that might result from coming. and
when it was pointed out that the SUI
preme court had upheld the city plan
ming system.
Cities of the secoad class probably
will be included in the legislation
when the measures come before the
house and senate for discussion. as a
number of second class cities are aax-
ious to adopt the system.
