POLICE DRIVE IS
ON To ENFORCE
PARKING LAWS
Violation of Ordinance Cost
So AIbuquerqueanS S.
Each Yesterday; Is More
Cited for Today

There were exactly Sc Albuduer-
queans yesterday who were made
aware Of the fact that the city ordi-
nances IN regard to traffic, and
particularly those as regards park
ing, may no longer be considered
as a huge joke. In the past the
parking ordinance has been ignored
and nothing has been done to en-
force the law.
However, about month ago the
city commissioners authorized the
addition Of one police officer, par
ticularly to enforce the parking or
dinance. In order to give all
drivers ample time to prepare for
the enforcement the police set De-
cember as the day enforcement
would be started.
put is was made evident yester-
day, because of the number who
appeared before Judge George
Roddy for this violation, that the
notices were not taken very SER
iously But SO people who enriched
the Golfers Of the city at SIS each,
will treat the ordinance less lightly
in future.
The parking ordinance prohibits
either double parking or parking
for q longer period than one hoor
on Central avenue, from First to
Fourth streets, and on First and
Second streets between Copper and
Silver avenues.
In addition to many who APP
peared before Judge Roddy yester
day morning, the following 'anteG-
up the required five dollars at the
evening session Of the police court:

to the city eXchequer shows that
Judge Roddy nor the po-
lice are playing favorites. Every
car found in violation Of the ordi
hance is tagged and the owner re-
quired to pay the fine OF five doll
lars, regardless of who owns the
car.

in excess Of Mr.. Peppers bid.
Postmaster Spitz forwarded the
two bids to the treasury depart
ment at Washington last night. He
recommended that the bid of Mr..
Pepper be accepted.
Mr.. Spitz and the other officials
who opened the bids expressed the
opinion that other bids may have
been forwarded direct to Washing
ton. This opinion is based largely
on the fact that the advance no.
tees calling for bids--these notices
sent out from Washington--were
not quite clear.
In the event that other bids have
been sent direct to Washington II
is possible that a lower bid than
that of Mr.. Pepper has been sub
mitted. In such case the contract

ted by Mr.. Pepper is so low that II

lower ones win be offered,

CITY OFF |CIALS
SEEKING FARLEY
ON NEW VIADUCT
Persistent Efforts Are Being
Made to Secure a Confer
enCe With Representa-
tiVeS of Santa Fee Road

Persistent efforts are being made
by city officials to secure a confer
enCe with officials of the Santa Fe
railroad in regard to the new VIA
duet. The city is DESTROYS of OBJ
tanning this conference in order
that the cooperation of the rail-
road officials may be secured.
1t looks now as though these
efforts are about to bear fruit City
officials have finally obtained a
definite promise from the Santa Fe
office that Immediately upon the
return of w. c. Reid, Santa F'e So
licitor for New Mexico, from Wash
ington, a conference will be ar
ranged.
1t is believed that this conference
will be arranged within the next
two weeks, as Mr.. Reid is now
winding up legal matters htch have
held him in Washington. However,
until he has finished his duties at
Washington it is considered mad
visable to set a definite date for a
conference, as Santa Fe officials
from Chicago will also attend the
official gathering.
1t is the general impression that
the new viaduct will be started
after the conference is set,
as it is believed once the officials
are brought together it will take
only a short time to complete ar
for construction. 1t Is
believed the Santa Fe officials are
quite willing to cooperate and that
the delay has been due solely to the
absence from the city of Mr.. Reid
He is the only official here with
to act in the pre-. lises
and to set a date for conference
with the Santa Fe officials of the
Chicago office.

Tho Old Mechanic Saws.

ITS always been a puzzle to me
why motorists will complain sc
about the noise their valve tappets
make and yet pay so little attention
to the valves themselves. The noise
a valve makes isn't half as bad as
the trouble it gives when it sticks
And It's the cause Of this sticking
that interests me.
Take 81 Smiths car, for instance
When one Of his intake valves stuck
he had to leave the car here, vet the
cause of the trouble was nothing
unusual. The valves got too dry
and one Of them stuck in its guide
That's all there was to the general
cause. but when ST said that he had
squirted oil on the valves about two
weeks before, 1 began to look for the
real cause Of the trouble What !
found was that the front cover plate
ever the valves was not screwed
Gown tight. Tt stuck out enough to
catch the air from the fan, and this
served to dry off the valves. The
same sort of thing is happening with
some Of the valve in the head motors
where the owners don't put the valve
cover on properly. Air blows in
through some opening in the front
and dries up the oil. A valve sticks,
and the driver is in for a little trou-
BILE. 1t proves my theory that the
small causes produce the big trou-
lies"

Valuable Hints
For Winter Driving

Snow, sleet, ice, slush and mud
present a constant danger to the
motorist, during the winter. Ex-
IRENE care should be taken operating
in this kind of weather to see that
minor points are observed or a bad
collision will result
The careful owner will first look
to his brakes and see that they are
adjusted by an expert SO that they
will not grab unevenly.
The worst thing that could happen
to an owner is probably the driving
OF car during the months when
the streets are icy, with improperly
| adjusted brakes.
Brakes in this condition mean that
when they are applied suddenly, or
even slowly but firmly, one wheel
will be slowed down more than the
other and the result is a positive
; side slip or skid, which may end in
the death of some one, the wrecking
OF a car of injury to another machine
passing or parked at this spot.
The front tires should also be in
srected and care should be taken to
see that they have a tread on them
as these rubber grooves give a GER
tain amount Of traction necessary
| for steering.
Chains should be used on the rear
wheels at all times when the streets
are wet of the going nasty"
1t is preferable to use chains on
all four wheels but when it is found
that only two chains are available
DO not, under any pretext, or on the
advice Of any friend, put one on a
front wheel and another on the OPP
pCsite side, rear. This will result
| only in the wearing of the rear tire
on the side where there is no chain
and will not in the least prevent
skidding in the same degree that
chains on the rear will.
Such course also tends to wear
the mechanism of the differential as
one wheel is spinning free in the ice
and snow and the other side is more
or less stationary, due to the, chain.
Improper vision is also the source
OF disastrous accidents. A wind
shield wiper to clear off the ice and
SHOW within a certain range in front
of the driver is advisable. They are
inexpensive and can be bought at
any accessory store at small cost.
Another excellent precaution to
take ID the coating Of the windshield

Tow this makes convenient way to
turn.
Did You Know

That the practice of driving with
enc cross chain on each wheel re-
suits in crystalizing the rear axles at
those points which are Numerically
opposite the points at which the
chains are attached? This happens
frequently where motor trucks drive
through the winter with each rear
wheel humping over the single cross
chain. Passenger car operators who
are inclined to try the truck idea
should remember that, if they do,
they1l eventually acquire 'he broken
aXles that go with it.
That driving through ruts in the
snow is particularly damaging to tho
wheels of a new car? The thrust is
50 great that after the spokes have
dried cut later on in the year the
slightest collision will result in
cracking a wheel. And there's no

Running Down Hill

The most comfortable way OF
descending hills when running over
the road at travelling gait is to slow
down just before starting the de-
Cine. If the driver approaches the
top. Of the hill at thirty miles an houl

bis brakes before he reaches the bot

and the car running faster as it goes
along it is difficult to apply the
brakes gently. But if, on the other
