The tentative plan is to divert traf-

Acting Supt of Police Charles
Evans stated today that he was in
favor of the plan, provided it is tried
out between the hours of 5 and 8
o'clock, which is the period in which
the police regulations permit the use
of water during hot weather for

said that If water is used at that time
for sprinkling lawns he could see
no objection to using 1t at the same
