 LIMITS ON PARKING
New Campaign Against Motorists Announced by
 Police Chief

Violation or parking rules tSpc- cially iii the Congcsted areas must stop, according to Chief Of Police William (. Hart who today au- nounced a new drive against motor ists who overstay the legal time lim- it's in restricted districts.
 Main street, West Main street, Church street and adjoining thor oughfares will hcnceforth receive more attention from policemen and the department will be more liberal than ever with tags, the head of the department stated.
 The new drive has been brought about principally because Of com plaints being received from mer- chants in the business sections who say motorists park in front of their stores and go away leaving their cars there for an unlimited time.
 On one section of West Main street where the police board con- sidered establishing a no parking territory but later made it a five minute period territory. motorists leave their cars from 50 minutes 10 an hour and sometimes longer, the chief declares.
 Tell them they'll all get tagged from now on," he added.
