TRAFFIC ORDINANCE
/ DISCUSSION TUESDAY,;
OTHER MATTERS UP

Representatives of all the civic or
CARNATIONS of the city will meet with
the ordinance committee of the city
council, next Tuesday evening to dis
cuss provisions of the traffic ordi-
nance proposal to eliminate both the
right and left hand turns at Eighth
and Main street
Elimination of both right and left
hand turns at this crossing means that
handling the traffic will be much sim
plified Danger to pedestrians from
cars turning the corners will no long
er exist, according to the statement of
Chief Eversman.
when pedestrians approach Eigth
and Main streets at present, they
watch the traffic officer to see when
the traffic on their street is given the
right of way. They start across the
street with the traffic. Now if car
makes a right hard turn, it must cut
through the stream of pedestrians on
the side street. Eliminate the right
hand turn and that source of danger
is done away with.
Other Considerations
In addition to this measure num-
Der of other amendments are being
discussed, and will be considered at
the meeting, according to Councilman
Joseph L. Waterman, member of
the committee.
The ordinance committee met in the
board of works room of the city
building, Tuesday evening.
Amendment of the present carnival
ordinance which allows carnivals to
stop here on payment of a SIS tax and
subject 10 the approval of the city
morals committee also was discussed

mittee will not report this measure at
the next council meeting, an ordinance
is being framed to prohibit all carni-
walls from stopping in this city, Mr..
Waterman stated 1t will be consid-
cred at the next meeting of the COM
mittee Tuesday evening. Attention of

In GAS PRICE
McKellar Charges Plot Of
Oil Producers to

The Senate yesterday ordered an
iuvestigation into the increases ia
the prices Of gasoline.
Senator McKellar. Tennessee. in
troductd the resolution and il WAS
adopted without roll call.
McKellar charged the recent in,
creases. ranging from 10 cents
per gallon. and the contemplated in
creases indicate a conspiracy among
oil producers 10 Gouge the public.
Protests against the increases are
pouring in on members Of Congress
and government officials
McKel.ar's fignt began early in the
day when he introduced his resolu-
tion and as'-ed immediate consideta-
tion.
Senator Smoot. Utah. objected on
the ground that a similar invsSti-
cation had been asked in a resJlu-
tioI pending in the Senate Commerce
Committee.
Later McKellar declared the reso-
luton referred to by Smoot had "sIept
in the committee since August 22.
1921" without action. and he there
fore requested his resolution be adopt
ed without delay. and be referred
to the Manufactures Committee. from
which he intimated, he could get ac-
tion.
McKellar declared that the evil
dence pointed to the existence OF a
combination among oil rehners to
raise prices.
THE price OF crude oil Is at its
lowest. the stocks Of crude oil are
at their greatest in history. and yet
the price of gasoline Is being raised.
What other explanation than agree
ment among the rehners can be given
when the situation plainly calls for
a competitive market and low prices7"
asked McKellar.
NO one can tell where these raises
in the price OF gasoline will end. IL
We do not take action.
Complaints have been pouring
into the Department Of Justice for
ten days. particularly from the
Eastern section. where the price
for ordinary fuel gasoline ieaped
from "a cents to 2s cents a gallon
within few weeks. the highest
reached for several years.
