Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK. December 29.-Now
that the Christmas shopping rush is
over, transportation engineers and
city authorities are casting up &C
counts to determine what effect recent
regulations have had on traffic. Con.
gestion, has been heavy. One taxi
driver asserts that during the rush
hours on Saturday II required at least
an hour to travel a half mile on Park
or Fifth avenue to the Grand Central
Station. This. of course. represented
only one heavily congested section
but traffic was heavy in every com
mercial center in the country.
Establishment of 200 taXicab stands
in Philadelphia in conjunction with
the elimination of cruising taxis is
credited by the director of public
safety with having reduced conges'
ton rs per cent in the shopping dis.
trict OF that city. The elimination OF
the cruising taxi was by voluntary
agreement of the taxi companies.
Even with this gain. however, W.
S. Canning. engineering director Of
the keystone Automobile Club OF
Philadelphia. says regulation of street
traffic in cities will never be accom-
plished until it is placed in the hands
of skilled engineers. who will work out
the local conditions involved and
whose recommendations are put into
strict effect by the municipal authori
ties
