STEP TOWARD SOLUTION OF
PARKING PROBLEM
(By BRUCE CATION

Ask the average American Wnat ne Is
looking for in this life and chances are ne
will answer "a parking space" Traffic
congestion and parking are problems that
concern the small town just about as much
as the large city. ... -. ......
For that reason New York City's decision
to make permanent the ban on parking on
10 midtown streets is of interest to many
people. ..-. -t.. s........ ,...
The express streets" had been on trial
in New York since Jan. 3. Police liked
the idea. So did motorists. The parking
ban will soon be tried on 10 additional
streets.
Other metropolitan centers can now be
expected to follow New York's lead. In
doing so they will finally give. ear to advice
which traffic experts have been passing out
for some time. ....,...... a..
And that advice is that the only real So
luton to the problems of congestion and
parking lies in, first, elimination of parking
on all but the widest and least travelled of
city streets and, second, provision for Off
street areas to accommodate not only the
cars usually parked on the streets but also
the even greater. number of cars people are
driving around the block in the vain hope
that they will find place to leave them.
The experts believe further that city
planning should provide for conversion of
low value real estate into parking space. I.
Down in Argentina, the forwardlooki
city of Buenos Aires is showing the way to
a motorists Utopia by constructing the
worlds widest street-with subways be-
heath it to provide parking space for. 5000
cars. This plan appeases the honest objee-
ton of merchants who say that elimination
of street parking also eliminates part of
their business. .,..,.-..-,..... =. .
Parking is the prime causative factor in
traffic congestion. ,ss..,
, Consider 100-yard blocks on a busy
artery. Only Is cars can park in 100 yards
that would be SO cars for both sides of the
Street. But the pavement left for moving
cars may serve more than 1000 an hour.
Thus a few parked cars clog the street
and slow up traffic for many times that
humber of moving cars. = y--...--
New York has taken the first step to-
ward a sensible solution of what are prob
ably Americas most universally irritating
problems, parking and traffic. Simply stat
ed the one practical course seems to be:
1 Provide adequate off-street space-and
then get the parked cars off the busy
streets. ...., .,....
When that is done life will be lot more
pleasant for lot of people. Saturday night
on Main street of midwestern town will
be no more. of a drivers nightmare than
will o'clock in the afternoon on SD street
in New York City.

almost every street in the city, and the number of the post in which 1t was included. It has often been said, That a police mans lot is not happy one," and Frank Cuttings night assignment, similarly, was no bed of roses. And it never will be, no matter who reigns. Puzzled questions of law, arise more often during the dark hours than they seem to do dur ing the sunshine. And then, there is the question of discipline; if there is trouble among the rank and file, 1t is more apt to break out at night than in the day time.
 Sports Enthusiast
 The young days of Frank Cut ting were spent in the south end, in which part of the city we think he was born and brought up. We do know he attended high school, and that he got fairly good schooling before he entered em- ployment. He liked sports 8 great deal, used to play ball some with the south end teams, and later was member of the police ball team when the well known Jerry Hunihan was its star pitcher.
 Frank Cutting wasn't an Out Easter SO long, but he had lived out here long enough for many of us to meet and know him. He was good company, somewhat shy, perhaps with strangers, but most loyal to all of his friends and &C., ouaintances. Never loud, he just went his way, welcomed his friends cordially, and lived life of respect and comfort to those most dear to him. He was loyal to those he liked to degree of defense when attacked.
 His death was unlocked for by the many who had secretly ad- mired him for these many years.
