In accordance with the suggestion
made last night by Mayor w. 4
Beach that citizens of Mankato offer
suggestions In aiding the city coun
Gil in arriving at some form of traffic
ordinance suitable to all classes, The
Free Press obtained the following
short interviews in regard TO the
question.
Mayor Beach in a statement to
The Free Press today said that he
would make the tentative suggestion
that some limitation be placed on
the parking Of cars in the territory
on Front street from the Stahl
House to Liberty street.
John Nyqust: THE business men
who are vitality interested in the
caty's welfare, should make the first
move in the solution of the traffic
problem. They should either walk u
their places Of business. II it is not
too far, and during the day park
their cars to the rear of their places
OF business. This would leave the
curb space free for visitors"
A. Blum: 81 would suggest show
ing every courtesy to strangers and
giving them privileges in the way of
parking at all times CONSTANT with
good order. Business men can help
help matters a whole lot by either
having their cars sent back to their
garages during the day or else park
ing them to the rear OF their places
Of business, thus giving space to peo-
pie who come here to trade. very
much doubt whether an ordinance
could be formulate, which satisfy all
I think a whole lot OF the success OF
the question rests with the business
men themelves."
Fire Chief Ben e. Bangerter: my
object in wishing that there could be
some remedy for the congestion. = OF
cars in front of hotels and rooming
houses Is, that in case of fire late at
night. there would be no one on the
streets to help move the cars. Every
minute counts in an emergency like
that and a life may be lost through
delay. Any kind Of an ordinance
will suit me that will add to the
greater safety Of life and limb IN
case Of fires. Care should be taken

Views On the Proposed
Auto Parking Ordinance

not to antagonize strangers within
our gates"
DR.. A. F. Kemp: II do not believe
that in a city the size of Mankato
there is any need of limitation of the
parking Of cars. think that the OBJ
lection to all night parking near the
hotels largely comes from the garage
men themselves"
Chief of Police Phil Landmark: 1T
might be well to have an ordinance
limiting parking in what might be
termed the loop district or Ave OF
six blocks on Front street., where the
parking could be limited to say two
hours. This would compel mer-
chants to move their cars and not
leave them parked in one place all
situation somewhat. l would not like
to see a drastic ordinance passed
that would be Difficult of enforce.
ment. These are merely suggestions
however" p
Albert Gender: Business men
should CO operate with the city Off
Gals in the solution of the traffic
problem. Many Of them instead OF
leaving their cars parked all day in
front of their places of business
should either walk to work or have
the cars parked at the rear Of the
building, and leave the space on the
streets for strangers coming to the
city. am not in favor of any hard
and fast parking ordinance but an
certainly in favor Of showing every
croutesy to strangers who come here
to trade"
George e. Black, insurance man:
"On Front street, which is double
tracked throughout the entire bust
ness district I think that some limi
tation should be placed on the
length of parking allowed. In Forest
City. Ia, a town not near the size
of Mankato, a twenty minute park
ing limit Is working out very good.
Such a limitation in my opinion
would give people coming in to trade
more chance to drive up to the
places OF business they wished to,
Mankato business men could CO.
operate in the matter by parking
their cars off Front street, and thus
give people coming in from the out.
side more room for their cars"

There comes a time IN the life OF
