PLAN A CITY
 MOTOR PATROL

Superintendent of Police Patrick J.
 flanagan announcedS this mornln
 that tentative plans he 9ad been pre-
 pairing for the placing of Minute
 Men, in each precinct had been com
 pleted and the men will take up their
 new duties tomorrow morning.
 Under the new orders. a motorcycle
 and a sidecar, with driver, will be
 placed in the Second, Third and
 Fourth Precincts. The assignments
 announced today are as follows: Pa
 roll to the Second Precinct; Patrol men Sullivan and Hoffman to the Third precinct, and Patrolman Rob ert Egan to the Fourth Precinct. The First Precinct emergency calls will be taken care of by the regular motor cycle officers who are on duty, and ! by the touring car and police pa trol.
 The motorcycle men will work In two shifts. from a. m. to p. 1n- l and from D. m- to 4 a. m.
 Under the new system it will he l seen that tho motorcycle driver and | E:decar will be available during the 1 s46 hours of the day that crime Is i <1nost prevalent. It will be used iE | riots, hold-ups, serious accidents along | the highway, and the like where II | Is necessary for rapid action.
 The plan will work as follows: An i emergency call will come in, say, td 1 the Second Precinct. The driver oL the motorcycle and either the door o is serious enough, the desk lieutenant
 will respond to the call. This will
 give the police a chance to get on the scene almost as soon as the crime | is committed. Other patrOlnIen will follow on foot or by trolley.
 The superintendent this morning stated that the men will not only re l. spond to emergency calls in their own precincts but in cases where a l. getaway is attempted the whole emer- genCy neet will be thrown into action aRd all of the city exits will be blocked.
 This is the first move in a plan to have q double shift system or motor cycles in the department" stated the superintendent. Eventually we plan ) to have a dOube shift of motorcycle men. covering regular posts and doing : 24-hour duty daily. We are working on that plan now and eXpetc soon to : have signal box system in effect In i: the traffic department. Under this 1 plan, motorcycle men will be desiE- : mated to cover fixed posts starting at (. a. certain hour each day and they :. will then go from post No 1 to post J No. 2, and so on until they have GOV cred each post daily. Each man will : move up in rotation so that the city, ] beside the regular police patrol, will ! also have daily motorcycle patrol" |:

 The mayor declared that the plan was especially appropriate at fhfs time when so many accidents have happened on the streets of the city from autOm Obiles. Four people have been killed by auto and trolley car accidents within the past 24 hours.
 Supt. of Schools Cortright said that the plan for the establishment of the councils was the result of the work of committee Accident and Safety. The councils will work on a definite program announced today for the promotion of safety among school children.
 Mayor Atwater said that the large number of accidents within the past few days was in no way attributable to the traffic squad of the Police de- pertment, but to the failure to ob- serve traffic laws and regulations Parents are partly to blame, the may or declared, in allowing children to play on the streets.

 BIG SAVING ON
 SNOW REMOVAL

By the use of city ash dump carts to assist in the removal of snow from city streets in time of heavy snow fall. Director of Public Works George NJ CoushHn plans a saving oE thou sands of dollars to the city.
 '.I have requested the use of the city dump carts of the Department Of Health Director Coughlin said to- day, and l believe that the health cornn1isSi sSioners will be only too glad to allow their use in time Of heavy snowfall. This will be in keeping with Mayor Atwater's program of eeconoIny. which the Health depart nent is only too glad to assist in.
 out hundreds of dollars to private contractors for use of their dump carts in removal of snow from the main thorouShfares. For the sake of an argument let us say that the cost of snow removal after an exceedingly heavy snowfall would come to S5O, 900 Easily One-half of this would be paid out for carriage purposes.
 But with the use of the dump carts now used bz- the Health de partment in ash collection, that are especially adapted to snow remOvel work, the cost can be ncut One-half. IT the total cost Of snow removal came to S5O.OOO. the cost would be s25,000 after using the city owned carts I have placed the plan before Mayor Atwater and he has heartily endorsed it. The use of the carts
