NEW STATE CODE PROHIBITS
STOPPING NEAR CORNERS
WHERE VIEW is OBSTRUCT-
ED.

Improper parking has been the cause
of innumerable minor accidents and
some serious ones, in Redwood Coun-
ty, and elsewhere. But if motorists
will obey the parking rules in the new
Minnesota traffic law, these accidents
will be reduced to a minimum. The
new rules, as outlined in a bulletin
from the State Highway department
make it unlawful:
To leave a vehicle standing, whe-
Their attended or not, upon the paw
ed or improved or main travelled por-
ton of any highway, outside a NUM-
cipality, when it is practicable to park
1T off the paved or main travelled por-
ton of the road.
To leave it at any time or place upon
any highway, unless clear and unob-
structed width of not less than fiji
teen feet upon the main travelled por-
zion of said HIGHWAY Iis left free
for passage of other vehicles.
To leave a vehicle upon a highway
at a place where a clear view cannot
be obtained from a distance of 200
feet in either direction.
To park within fifteen feet of a
private driveway, a hydrant or fire
station, or to park within twenty-five
feet of curb lines or if none, then with
in fifteen feet of the intersection of
property lines.
To bring a vehicle to a stop on the
left side of highway, except one
way street.
To leave motor vehicle unattend-
ed without setting the brakes, or ia
leave motor vehicle on a grade with
out turning the front wheels to the
curb.
These parking rules, except where
noted, apply both to automobiles and
horse-drawn vehicles. Like all other
provisions of the new traffic code
they apply to "any public thorough
fare" unless there isa specific excep-
ton. The rule against stopping on
the main travelled portion of the high
way does not apply when vehicle is
disabled so that it is impossible to
avoid stopping and temporarily leav.
ing it on the road.
Regulation of parking within cities
and villages is left to the municipal
authorities, but parking on trunk high.
ways within the city or village limits
must not encroach upon the portion
maintained by the state, except by per.
mission of the highway commissioner
When a peace officer finds We.
hicle wrongly parked, he can move it
or order the driver to move it.
1t may be well for motorists to re-
member that if your machine is pro-
perly parked, and is struck by anoth,
er machine, you have good claim for
damages. But if your machine is hit
while it is parked in an illegal man.
ner, you not only have no claim for
damages, but the owner of the other
machine may have a valid claim
against you.

Democratic leaders are seeking tn

signed by $50 members will bring
q bill from committee and place it
on the house calendar for considera-
tion. This was the rule forced
through in 1924.
The 1924 rule fight arose because
committee chairmen were ''pocket-

it to be voted from the committee
to the floor. The present rule is re
garded as some improvement on that
situation, but Democrats want to

TRADE is IRREGULAR.
Dun's Says Gains in Some Impor-
tant Lines Are Maintained.

NEW YORK, March rs CP)-Dun
says: "On the whole, recent gains in
several important lines have been
well sustained and in certain In
stances extended, though CONNER
cial conditions disclose rather sharp
Irregularities. Expansion in some
directions contrasts with continued
lassitude in other quarters, while
some markets are strong and others
are weak. Such phases as these
naturally result In conflicting reports
on the general situation, but they
are not surprising in view Of the
wide qualifications of business. So
far az the principal statistical
barometers are concerned, most of
these point upward and afford
tangible basis for announcement.
Despite the lower commodity prices
now current, which obviously have
a bearing on the returns, bank clear
ings at leading centers outside OF
New York are moderately above the
very heavy total of a year ago, and
the latest statement of railroad
freight traffic sets new high sea-
,sonal record.
Weekly bank clearings were
$9.761 $50. 900, an increase OF 7.3 per
cent over last year"

doing this it is very wise to examine
yourself thoroughly to ascertain
whether you are at fault: perhaps the
reason you are not getting along we'll
in your present position lies with your
self. Certainly. If it is true that the
fault is your own. YOU will be only
jumping from the frying pan into the
fire by making a change. The fault
that holds you back in one concern
will, in all probability. hold YOU back
In another concern.
Move In Same Company.
IF you find you do not like the kind
or work you are in. il is best to try
first to secure a change within your
own organization to q job that you
do like. 1t is often wiser TO adopt
this method of getting into a job for
which you feel yourself to be better
htted than it is TO seek q connection
with another company. BY so doing
YOU will not lose the benefit OF the ex-
perience you have gained in your pres
ent company. Moreover. your knovl.
it conducts its business Will still be of
advantage to you after you have Sc
cured the desired change"
In general, the foregoing advice is
sound, provided in the first place you
picked a desirable employer. Some
times, however. temperamental differ
ences arise which make 1t wise to
leave an organization when the first
opportunity presents itself to get into
a more congenial organization.

troll of which is held by the Pan
American. Although the details are
not yet completed, 1t is reported that
prospects for a successful consumma-
ton are regarded as excellent.

posed deals as movement to

Superstitions I'm Wall Street.

Wall Street is full OF superstition.
The average speculator is supersti-

liarly good days on which to buy
should be sold. He carries 1t so far
as to pick out certain times of the
day in which you ought to buy and
other times in which you ought to
SELL
For instance, the professional specu-
lator does not like to operate directly
at the opening of the market He
wants to wait half hour until the

about the market he likes to "clean
up" before the close, SO that no matter
what happens before the next morn

out of the market.
In a bull" market he expects a re-
action on Tuesday. He believes that
the big people" put up prices on Sat
urday and the public, after thinking
while the wise people are selling.
Then on Tuesday they let prices
down, the outsider sells and the big
people take them back.

this, but the rank and file are. They
like to do something because other
people are doing it. They buy when

a. rare phenomenon.
