SYSTEM
 FOR AUTO TRAFFIC
Innovation in Connecticut Now
 Being Considered

Hartford. Feb. ey. -- A possible adaptation of the so-called "boulc- yard system" in some of the larger cities of the state Is suggested for consideration as a means to speed up traffic and reduce congestion, In paper entitled Some Aspects of Connecticut Highway and Street Traffic" delivered by tho commis- sioner of motor vehicles before tho Connecticut Society of Civil Ekgn- eers at recent meeting. When universally authorized and installed as, for example, by state law-it is pointed out that the system Is dangerous but the position is also taken that inasmuch as it facilitates movement of traffic to have such q system wherever consistent with safety. it should be considered as a possibility.
 The view is expressed that. with the constantly increasing number of motor vehicles on the public high ways, authorities having to do with traffic regulation must be on the alert to avoid congestion and re- sultant accidenta Even now it is clearly necessary" says the depart mcnt statement, 'that no motor ve- hicle which cannot attain fair rate of speed should hereafter be capable of registration except by special permit. The policy of the state must be toward smaller units of transportation with smaller loads moving faster, and a more indi-

vidual and thorough supervision of traffic movement"
 It would be necessary to amend the Connecticut law to permit tho use of the boulevard system" in cities of this state. as 1t would be in opposition to the right of way rule. but, says the statement, "if amendment to the state law could be had whereby certain streets in certain cities could be open1or this system under limitations to be pre- scribed by the authorities, conges- ton would be done away with on those streets" Such thoroughfares as Farmington avenue in Hartford, Fairfield avenue in Bridgeport and Whitney avenue in New Haven are the kind the department has in mind.
 The object Of the Boulevard sys- tenn" is to speed up traffic on such main highways by permitting motor vehicle operators to forget any en- tering streets for the time being. Anyone entering upon the boulevard from side street does so at his own risk. An example of the boulevard system in active operation Is North Michigan avenue. in Chicago. On this avenue, traffic moves on an av- craze of s25 to S5 miles an hour. It has an automatic open and shut system of signals which Is supposed to allow people and vehicles to en-. ter and cross. s..aE
 "But the boulevard system has many serious limitations" according to\ the departments statement There is little doubt that statistics of accidents will show That more pedestrians are killed and injured and more serious collisions occur on systems of this kind than on cor responding systems under the right of way rule in the cast. Therefore the system would have to be modi- fled if adopted by Connecticut cities in the light of the experience of cities which have it in operation.

Damage Done by Landslide

A famous Devon (England) beauty
spot is disappearing. Thousands OF
tons of slate shale have been dis
placed in a landslide at Maidstone bay,
near Brixham. Great assures have
appeared near the top Of the cliff,
one from 4 feet to 6 feet wide and
is feet to 20 feet deep, showing that
the rock has been broken through
the movement of the cliff toward the
sea. In one place the public path
has disappeared. In some places
there are huge gaps, and in others
the subsistence has caused a perpen-
dicular drop of feet to 8 feet. A
winding path leading from the top
Of the cliff to the Tea house is en-
bedded under hundreds Of tons Of
shale, and there are signs that there
will be other larger falls, as the cliff
face is moving outwards. It is be-
neved that thousands of tons Of shale
viii be displaced soon. The whole
top surface is slowly moving, and will
be precipitated over the cliff, which
Is some 100 yards long and 30 wide.
