SEES DEATH
OF TRAFFIC
ORDINANCE
Majority Faction Councilman
Says Drastic Revision
Is Not Favored.

Defeat of the traffic ordinance
creating flat-to-curb parking anc
abolishing parking on the Circle was
predicted today by Millard w
Ferguson, member of the city
council majority faction.
Ferguson said he and other ma
jority members believed the measure
would be stricken from the files ol
allowed to die a slow death in com
mittee.
Il am confident the people Of In
dianapolis dc not favor drastic revi
sion of the traffic rules to favor ex
clusively the rapid moving of We,
hicles." said Ferguson.
my own experience as an auto
mobile driver has been that parking
fat to the curb involves endless
confusion and delay, for 1t is a diff
ficult art.
ALSO, the regulation against park.
ing on the Circle seems designed
against busses. Now | believe peo.
pie are accustomed to take the
busses on the Circle and would re-
sent a change. Besides, there is no
point in the business district where
busses may receive and discharge
passengers with a little confuion as
on the Circle
Ferguson said he was opposed to
the theory that traffic regulation
should stress only the moving OF
traffic. He said the man who wishes
to park has equal rights.

PLYMOUTH, Vt.,s Aug. 6.-Presi'
dent Coolidge began his Plymouth
fishing season by casting a fly in a
six.foot brook a quarter of a mile
from his house. After an hours
fishing he caught a small trout. He
smoked cigarets through a porcelain

While he was gone Mrs. Coolidge
took a pail and went to pick blue

with her quart pail full.
Coolidge, however, misses the

Hundreds of persons every day,

commenting audibly on his clothes,
his actions and his peculiarities.
The Coolidge homestead is a small

BU UntIfd PRESS
SALEM, KY, Aug. 6.-Rescuers
were making frantic efforts here to-
day to reach five men entombed in
the Hudson mine, near here. The
men were trapped about p. m.
Thursday, when the level, on which
they were working suddenly opened
up and water started pouring in
through the roof.
Two of the workers on the level,
Druary Williams and Alton Grisson,
heard the noise and dashed for the
shaft. The tunnel caved in behind
the mas they started climbing to the
surface.
Water pouring in wrecked the
timbers of the shaft and they were
forced to hold on to floating beams
until help arrived.
There is hope that five men
trapped are still living. Williams
and Grisson said the shaft was com
pletely closed behind them, where
the other men were working.
