New York, Jan. 14.-The character
of New York shifts and flows so
rapidly that it is often difficult to
keep track. Those of us who watch
the town must keep our eyes peeled
for the apparently TRIVIAL and minor
developments; often in the swim of
headlines we miss the trivia that has
so much meaning in any true ac-
counting of the city's color.
For example, some things have hap
pened lately which caused scarcely a..
ripple in the rest of the country and
no great splash here-but they are
things which will change the mean
ing of the hamlet, it may be for an
other generation. Take the anti-noisc
campaign and its effect on taxi-drv-
ers and visitors.
AS l have limited here before, most
visitors to New York like their noise
straight. They've heard that this is
bedlam and if they find the streets
subdued and the clatter muffled they
feel like demanding a refund from the
railroad or air line or steamship COM
pany. But now comes the little pledge
which all the taxi pilots had to sign,
promising "to cooperate in every pos
sible way in Mayor LaGuardia's noise
abatement campaign in order to make
New York a better place to live in"
This is a source of much BATTLE
ment to casual visitors. They see the
crosstown streets choked with trucks
and automobiles parked all day in
violation not only of traffic regula-
tons hut of the most rudimentary
common sense if the arteries of the
town are to remain unclOgged. These
visitors feel that it would be far more
logical to let the noise continue I'M
abated at blacksmith volume and de-
vote all efforts to clearing up traffic
"a really serious problem which
grows greater every time General
Motors pays an extra dividend.
To the innocent it would appear
slightly grotesque for cops to hand
summonses to taxi drivers who foot
their horns while limousines park in
unbroken lines at the curbs of cross
town streets, tying up movement of
cars to the stagnation point. But the
cops-all decibel-conscious now-con-
tinue to do exactly that and remain
serenely Indifferent to prehensile
truck drivers who stall brOadside in
streets from the Battery to Columbus
Circle, grinning contemptuously at
the poor worms who wait patiently
for a chance to craw through.
