PARKING SUSTAINED

Replying to the request of residents
of Thirteenth street between Iowa
Circle and Florida avenue that they
be allowed to park their automobiles
on one side of the street in the morn
of the street in the afternoon rush. as
Is permitted on Sixteenth street, Traf-
fic Director Eldridge pointed out TO-
day that the two streets are not com
parable.
Parking is possible on one side of
Sixteenth street during the rush hours
because that thoroughfare is 55 feet
wide. Mr.. Eldridge said while Thir-
feenth street is only 80 feet wide. Mr..
F;ldridge said it is planned to make
Thirteenth street one of the arterial
highways for through traffic and that
TO grant the petition of the residents

The traffic director received letter
today from DIR. John Sargent Stearns
citing advantages he has observed
from the new rule requiring bright
headlights on poorly lighted streets.
After pointing out that bright hshts
nronerly adjusted nable drivers to
see other vehicles at intersections,
pedestrians. crossing the street and
children darting from the curD IN
nlay. DIR. Stearns added that the slight
binding from properly adjusted hshts
on passing vehicles compels slowing
down. which, he said, automatically
brings about more careful driving.

Vice Chancellor Robert H. Inger-
soil has advised that the case of the
Piggly Wiggly Co. Inc. of Delaware
against Elwood S. Bartlett be set aside.
The company had brought suit to
compel Bartlett to return about $780,
600 which he was alleged to have
taken from the company's treasury.
The complainant charged that Bart
lett, with Daniel II. Weissman and
James G.. Hostutler, had sold the COM

500. 900 without differentiating it from
the stock of no par value held by the
defendants. The company further al

money was put into the companys
