One Step Along

COUNCIL should not stop with the re-
~ moval of the to parking ban in
the north end Of the downtown business
district.
This action, taken late Monday, was
step in the right direction. The "4 to 6"
rule was an unwise one, and obviously had
been considered so by the police, because
it was only spasmodically enforced. It
was unfair to merchants in that section of
the city which it covered, for it permitted
autoists to park their cars all day long,
excepting between those hours, preventing
customers who wanted to do business in
the stores from being able to park their
cars anywhere nearby
This will be remedied TO considerable
extent by the substitution of universal
half-hour parking plan.
But the council should not stop. II
should devise and put into effect as soon
as possible some wise, efficient and salts
factory plan of Strengthening up and keep
ing clear Seattle's traffic puzzle.
The longer such action is delayed, the
longer our already long list of traffic vic
tins is going to become.

For sheer sport, the cougar hunter

Who Benefits?

THE Kitsap County Transportation COM
J. pany is before the county commits
sioners today asking for a supplemental
agreement in connection with its ferry
lease, permitting it to move the present
emergency ferry pontoon, slip and cradle
at Portage, on Vashon island, TO the new
landing at Fauntleroy.
This is in connection with its proposal
to land passengers from Vashon at Faunt-
leroy as well as maintaining its Vashon-
Marion st. service.
1t is up to the county commissioners to
determine the rates and time schedules for
this new service, if granted. Tentative
schedules and rates, prepared by the COM
pany, provide for reduction in the pres
ent fare of from five to 10 cents for pas
sengers to Fauntleroy.
The distance from Vashon to Marion
st. by boat is 9la miles. The distance from
Vashon to Fauntleroy by boat is three
miles.
After the foot passenger on the ferry
lands at Fauntleroy he must travel for
40 minutes by street car at a cost of eight
or 10 cents to reach the downtown sec
ton.
The running time for ferries from
Vashon to Marion ST. direct is only 90
minutes. And yet the company wants to
lower rates for the Fauntleroy service
nearly six miles closer, only five to 10
cents.
Who benefits by this?
