Prior to the birth OF her child, she
was taken back to New York by her

To do this, however, he explained
ach officer should have another man

he stated.
Traffic congestion at this point
could be lightened considerably, he
declared, II the north side of X

no parking allowed in this block.
Another help to this problem. he
said, would be to lift the ban from
