PARKING PROBLEM
IS HELD UNSOLVED
Automobile Trade Director, Ac-
cepting Fact, Urges Individual
Car Owner to Ease Situation.

Conceding that there is no panacea
which can be applied to the parking
problem, Oscar Coolican, director of
the Washington Automotive Trade AS
ISOLATION, believes. nevertheless, that
the individual motor car owner has
1t within his power to ease the situa-
ton by looking more closely to his
parking technique. Carelessness in
parking. both at an angle and parallel
to the curb, is responsible for great
waste of space, not only in Washing
ton, but in every other metropolitan
center, Mr.. Coolican is convinced.
1T is unfortunate" he says, that
so many drivers are willing to regard
the problem as having been tempo
rarily solved when they themselves
have found place in which to leave
their cars. That this is their attitude
clearly is indicated in the manner in
which they enter space-oftentimes
in such a way that they take up
room in which another car might easily
be placed"
There are certain regulations in con-
nection with parking of which many
motorists appear to be ignorant, Mr..
Coolican declares. Among the most
important Of these, he points out, Is
that which defines the word parking"
On this subject he quotes the traffic
regulations. as follows:
Park means to leave any motor
vehicle standing on public highway,
whether or not attended"
Many car owners, Mr.. Coolican de-
clares, are under the impression that
Evening star., 1928-04-08

The table indicates that Newport, r.
], with 36 cars stolen and 36 recovered
had the perfect record" of the cities.
York, Pa, with 78 stolen and n re-
covered had the next mark to Newport.
But Omaha, Neb, bettered the per-
feet record having had LOTS cars stolen
and / ,186 recovered. Some of these re-
coveries were of cars stolen in other
cities and brought to Omaha, some of
them were cars stolen In 1926 and not
recovered until 1927.
The information is collected by the
dealer organization from the chiefs of
police of the named cities. All these
officials In commenting upon the motor
vehicle theft situation expressed salts
faction at the manner in which the
courts are now treating automobile
theft which was a marked contrast to
the situation 10 years ago, when ex-
treme difficulty was encountered in Sc
curing arrest, prosecution or convic-
ton.
On this latter point an interesting
light is shown by Chief James w. Hig-
gins of Buffalo, N Y. Chief Higgins
says that the Baumes law, passed two
years ago. is a great help to us and a
weapon that the criminals fear. Un-
der the Baumes law the fourth con-
viction for felony in New York State
now results in an automatic life term
sentence in prison for the criminal.
Second or third felony convictions can
be imposed Of 10 to 20 years, or 20 to
40 years. Criminals are hesitating to run
into such drastic penalty for the sake
of motor vehicle with the almost GER
tain assurance that they will be caught
with such cars In their possession"

SUPERCHARGED ENGINES
PRACTICAL FOR ALL CARS
Louis Schwitzer Says Equipment
for Races May Be Used for
Passenger Vehicles.

Supercharging Of engines, now ap-
piled successfully to racing cars and
airplanes. is practical for private pas
senger cars, motor coaches and motor
trucks, according to a statement made
by Louis Schwitzer Of the Schwitzer-
Cummins Co., ct a recent meeting Of
the Indiana section Of the Society Of
Automotive Engineers. II superchargers
are installed much smaller engines can
be used, he said. as the supercharger
pressure will take care Of the higher
velocity and distribution Of the mixture
charge at the higher engine speeds
when excess power is required. Why,
he asked, should 80 per cent of all
passenger car operators be penaliZed by
excessive car weight and fuel consump-
ton when they drive 80 per cent Of the
time at a speed of less than 35 miles
per hour?
About $50 pounds Of engine weight
and to 10 inches Of wheelbase are
added to cars to secure the performance
which is utilized for perhaps 20 per cent
Of the total driving time. He said fur
ther that while testing car equipped
with a supercharger 1t was delightful
to drive 1t at 35 to so miles per hour
and that 1t accelerated past other cars
with ease. He believes the Supercharger
Is the next logical development In In
creaSing the power output per cubic
inch of piston displacement and that its
application will lead TO a successful,
flexible and economical two-cycle en-
CINE that will be suitable for automo-
tive use

BUS REGULATION
HEARINGS TO BEGIN
House Committee to Take Up
Measure Tuesday-AppIieS
to Interstate Lines.

Hearings on the Parker bill Oh, r.,
IL. .SS0). introduced in the House March
"a by Representative James S. Parker,
chairman Of the House committee on
interstate and foreign commerce, will
begin Tuesday. The measure provides
for the regulation of interstate buSses
operating over public highways, and is
deemed Of major importance not only
to the motor bus transportation facili-
ties of Washington but of the Nation as
well, according TO the legislative depart
ment of the American Motorists ASso-
citation, which has Endorsed the measure.
The two outstanding features OF the
measure are sections 8 and 9. The for
mer section provides that all interstate
bus companies before given license TO
operate must furnish a bond TO indem-
Nifty passengers injured or killed or in
Jury to other property or persons. For
companies financially responsible pol
lev of insurance will be accepted IN lieu
of a bond. or the State or Federal COM
mission. under certain conditions, may
waive the bond.
Section 9 provides that companies do
ing an interstate business must charge
a Just and reasonable rate, and must
file with the commission tariffs which
are TO be prescribed. No motor carrier
shall charge more or less than the tarih
prescribed, this feature Of the bill being
the same as the interstate commerce
act. The measure, which contains am
pie provisions for both the public and
the motor bus transportation companies,
is regarded by the association as being
an excellent piece of legislation not only
for the public but for the bus COM
panies as well.
1T win Immediately Danish from tn
highways the irresponsible bus operator
who is a menace TO other motorists,
according to Thomas j. Keefe, general
manager of the association THE bus
operators themselves viii also proht
under the terms of the measure, mas
much as it viii prevent unwarranted
competition, which is an economical
loss.
The principal feature, however, OF
interest to the motorists who uses the
highways with the buses is that in
case Of damage to property or personal
injury the motorist who has just claim
can be assured of collecting any DAM
ages he may have sustained. Under
present conditions many bus companies
are financially irresponsible, and motor
lists are often unable To collect damages
even after they have been awarded by
the courts, Mr.. Keefe points out.

Auto Thefts Decrease in Ten Years,
Says Manager Of National Association

Stealing automobiles and getting
away with 1t" is becoming harder every
year. according to c. A. Vane. general
manager of the National Automobile
Dealers Association of Chicago, an
nouncing the result of survey Just
completed of automobile thefts in %
American cities in which there are 10
year comparative records available.
In the 81 cities there were stolen in
1927 total of 95.083 motor vehicles.
OF this number there were 87,186 re-
covered, a total of 9l.7 per cent being
recovered, or 83 per cent remained un-
recovered. This compared with total
thefts of 95,225 and total recoveries OF
85,114 in 1926, when II per cent were
unrecovered. In 1918 the first year
upon which statistics were kept on the
20 cities there were 27,445 motor
vehicles stolen and 2l,673 recovered,
The unrecovered vehicles were 81 per
cent Of the number stolen that year
In those cities.
The 1927 record by cities is as fol-

Ontario Traffic Act
Would Impose Fine
For Unlocked Auto

Legislation before the Province of
Ontario, knows as the highway traffic
act. 1928, provides for number of
important automobile mechanical
features.
Municipalities of Ontario are au-
thorized to require all passenger mo-
tor vehicles to be equipped with q
lock which will prevent the starting
of the engine, and every driver of a
motor vehicle. except truck, will be
required TO lock such device when the
vehicle is standing unattended in
highway or public place. If motor
list leaves his car unlocked, he is
subject to q fine up TO $40 for the
first offenSe and up to SIS for subSe-
cuent offenSeS.
Every motor vehicle having q
width at any part in excess of 80
inches is required to carry two clear
ance lamps or reficctorS of an ap-
proved design on the left side of such
vehicle.

so long as the drivers seat Of vehicle
Is occupied the car Is not technically
parked"
Another rule about which there ap-
pears to be misunderstanding is that
which specifies the distance the vehicle
may be from the curb In parallel park
Ing, Mr.. Coolican says. The traffic code
specifics that this distance must not be
greater than 6 inches, he point out,
adding:
Violations Of this regulation are par
ticularly costly in space. If the rear Of
vehicle Is left foot or 10 inches from
the curb, the space behind which other
wise might be available often IS rem
dered useless because it is virtually i'm
possible for another motorist to back
into it."
The car owner can do a great deal
TO solve his problem IN respect to find-
ing place in which TO leave his car
If he win but make an effort to con-
serve the space available and TO learn
and abide By the regulations. Mr.. Cool
ican Is convinced.
