FEWER STOPS SIGNS

MoIIer May Cut Out Many in
Downtown District,
He Says.

ACCESSIBILITY If eliminating some OF
the stop signs ON buuleVards that lie
within the c0ngeSted section Of the
city will be taken up for consideration
by officials of the traffic department
within a few weeks, Acting Traffic
Director Moller stated today.
Col. Moller said that observation Of
the boulevard stop system in opera
tfon has suggested that il might be
we'll not to have 50 many of the stop
intersections near the. center Of the
city, where there is traffic congestion.
Col Moller, who will leave Monday

stated today that upon his return he
would discuss the matter with Traffic
Director Eldridge, who will return TO
the city Monday.
1t also was explained by traffic Off
Gals today that while % streets were
placed on the list to be made boule-
wards several weeks ago, there was no
intention of actually putting that
many into effect in the near future.
Only or s boulevards are in ac-
! tual effect, with the stop signs painted
at each intersection.
Col. Moller said today that the 20
odd additional streets that were listed
for boulevards would he marked grad

today by Col. Moller with Engineer
Commissioner Bell.
Bells Idea Similar.
Col. Bell has expressed himself as
being somewhat in doubt OF the de-
STABILITY of marking too many streets
IS boulevard highways.
1t was explained by Traffic Depart
ment officials that they had not in
tended to designate as many as %
boulevards at one time, but that after
the first few had been marked with
the stop signs a question was raised
as to whether they would be effective
unless formally designated as boule-
ward highways. The Traffic Depart
ment, following the raising of this
question, announced the full list of
streets that were to be designated
boulevards.
They have not, however, marked
more than seven or eight, and Col.
Moller declared today that the mark
ing of the others could not be occom-
plished ip the near future.
1t has been emphasized by officials
of the Traffic Bureau that boulevard
stop is only in effect where the stop
sign has been painted.

2l.-The challenge OF Latin American
ism to Pan-Americanism ~ the chief
problem in the United States foreign
policy in Latin America. Prof. George
ii. Blakeslee of Clark University said
today at the Institute of Politics. This
is the closing session.

based upon the idea that the 20 Latin
American republics are united by ties
which do not include the United
States and aims TO unite all of the
American republics south of the Rio
Grande into group without the
United States.
Another problem exists in the
membership of is of the 20 Latin
American republics in the League of
Nations They have been given promi-
nent positions, and most OF them are
enthusiastic supporters of the league.
If Latin America should have its
disputes dealt with regularly at
Geneva and its common interests
considered and passed upon there, it
would naturally overthrow the very
basis of Pan nAmericanism and large
ly destroy the leadership of the
United States in this hemisphere. In

American republics and is not likely
to take jurisdiction over American
disputes in the near future.
The "open-door" policy in mineral
development was urged for this coun-
try by Prof. c. X. Leith of the Univer-
sity of Wisconsin today. Closing his
round-table conference on mineral re
sources as a new environmental factor
in world affairs, DR.. Leith said, in
part:
only a comparatively few centerS
of mineral production are capable of
supplying world demands, and an i'm
menSe amount of exploration and de-
Yelopment are necessary to prevent
shortage. Most of the mineral regions
awaiting development outside the
United States are being held back by
some variety of closed door This is
common source of political friction
which sometimes becomes even a
cause for war. This suggests certain
fundamentals of mineral policy for
the United States.
Would Eliminate Discord.
These are to learn the great in

and not attempt to stop them by
tariffs or other enactments and to

needed not only for our national self
interest but in much larger measure
for the elimination of international

use of the worlds resources. The

There is general and earnest wish
