NEW PARKING RESTRICTION
 IS PROPOSED
City Council Holds Long Meefing-Meets Score
 of Problems

Parking on Second, Third and Fourth Streets between Main and Franklin woS'itl be prohibited under terms of a proposed ordinance intro duced at last nights City Council meeting.
 t. To be acted upon at the next meeting of the Council. the ordi- nance would allow vehicles only to load or unload in the new mo park ing" zone, which Chief of Police Dan Ralston says is necessary due to present congestion.
 A dozen matters of minor import ance but of high nuisance value kept Councilmen in session until almost midnight.
 Magazines
 Russell R. Hermann, proprietor of the Juneau Drug Store, asked 25- day extension of time in which to remove his magazine racks from the sidewalk, under 8 threat to demand that totem poles and jewellers clocks be ordered removed along with his admitted obstruction. The Council voted him an extension, with Coun- cilman R lph Beistline voting a hearty mo" Under an amendment proposed by Councilman John Mo- Cormick, all other merchants are to be given another 25 days, or until June 16, to obstruct the sidewalks in defiance of city ordinance.
 Hermann protested that he had used the sidewalks for display of his magazines for ten years and did not believe it fair to be ordered to dis continue the display on short notice. His magazine business, he said, ran to $500 month and he would have to have more time to make arrange ments for taking the display inside the store. Hermann said he would have to discontinue between 40 and 150 different kinds of magazines. He disclosed that he had been placed under arrest within 24 hours after he had been notified to clear the sidewalks.
 Daylight Saving
 Councilmen S ussed daylight saving at some length, though an expected petition asking for adoption of new time system was not pres ented at the meeting. Councilmen agreed that Juneau should probably turn it's clocks ahead an hour perm anently, so as to be on the same time standard as Seattle and Ket- chikan The problem was to be dis cussed further at the next meeting.
 A request by Mrs. Charles Sabin for construction of a wooden side walk to her home on West Seventh Street was granted.
 Judge George F. Alexander com plained that the city has built retaining wall on his property in connection with improvement of road serving the Alexander and Percy Reynolds homes and asked that the city either move the wall out to the street line or pay for the corner of his lot occupied by the wall. The Street Committee is to investigate.
 Grading of a road on Star Hill was protested by J. E. Click. who said his home at Sixth and East Streets would be flooded by water coming down the hill if the street is filled as planned. Sidewalk Trouble
 William J. Markle notified the city by letter he would not pay part of the cost of building concrete

COAL COMMISSIONS JOBS ALSO JIBE5 MAY PROVE TO

By PRESTON GROVER

WASHINGTON, May 23.-Every time President Roosevelt comes out with new consolidation and re- organization plan, teeth chatter from one end of Pnnsylyania Ave nue to the other, but when he or dered abolishment of the National Coal Commission in his second plan the titters outdid the teeth-chatter- ing.
 The Coal Commission has been a comedy of Administration errors since it was invented four years ago. The Supreme Court abolished it once in the Carter coal case but it was recreated under a new act. And almost at once some of the fanciest stories of patronage rows eyer heard in Washington began leaking out.
 The strange part of it was that who wanted to verify them could do so. The side that ssa getting licked on patronage was always willing to tell of the injusticss heaped upon them.
 There was the matter of ink wells. Of the seven members of the commission, three for a long time were in the minority camp" One day an employee of one of the mi nority commissioners strolled into the office of a majority commis- sioner. Resting upon the majority commissioners desk was combi- nation fountain-pen and ink stand set that was marvel to behold. It was a SIP model and really splen- did work of art and utility.
