ID CONTROL
 MAIN ST. TRAFFIC
Police Board Impressed by Need
 Of Automatic System

The subject of weekend traffic light was discussed at the meeting of the police board last night. Com missioner Chamberlain asked Chief Hart If 1t would be possible to do away with the traffic post at Main and Commercial street by installing signal lights along Main street and thu chief said it would be. The chief said the ordinance committee criticized the traffic men for falling to work together.
 The fact of the matter is that the policeman at Main and Commercial streets cannot see the policeman at Main and East Main streets but with lights at the corners traffic can be regulated with uniformity, the chief said. entually a light will be needed at Elm and East Main streets, which is heavily travelled corner. Where light standards can be put in the center Of the streets they will be used. At other cor ners, overhead lights will be in- stalled.
 Signals Needed
 Chief Hart said signals are need ed at Main and East Main, Myrtle and Main, Commercial and Main, Washington and West Main, High and West Main, Main and Court, and possibly one on the east side of Main street just south of Central Park.
 Commissioner Chamberlain could not see the need for lights at Myrtle and Main and Commercial and Main, as the corners are close to- gether.
 The representative Of a signal light company said bracket light in the throat of Myrtle street would answer the purpose.
 Chief Hart said beacon lights will be needed eventually at Broad and Washington, Commonwealth avenue and Carlton. Burritt and Clinton. Beaver and Broad Hartford avenue and Stanley. The chief said he pre- fers electrically lighted signals to gas burning lights.
 After adjournment the commls- sioner inspected the proposed loca- ton of traffic lights. At the next meeting it is expected that action will be taken towards the purchase of lights.
 Reaction to Criticism of Council The criticism by common council members at a recent meeting, di- rected towards chairmen of city de- partments for their failure to at- tend council meetings has struck the mark at least as far as the po- lice department is concerned. it de. veloped at the meeting of the com missioners last night.
 Chairman Peter Pajewski asked if the members are of the opinion that he should attend all council meetings.
 Commissioner Chamberlain said the board should be represented because department matters are likely to be brought up at any time. Probably the chairman need not go to every meeting but the department should be represented, he said, The chairman said he be- lieved the city engineer and the president Of the board of finance and taxation should be present but other departments do not have matters coming up al every meet ing,
 If seemed to be the sense Of tho meeting that the department should be represented at all coun- cil meetings although no formal vote was taken.
