WATERBURY BILL
 UNDER SCRUTINY.
Measure Relating tOLegal- ity of Parking Meters to
 Be Studied

Although referred to the commit tee on motor vehicles, the two bills carrying contrary provisions con. corning parking meters which have been Introduced ct this session of the General Assembly, will be rec ferred by that committee to the ju- dietary committee, according to leg- Islative leaders. They hold the prin- ciple involved is so iinportant that '*iv the judiciary committee, the all-legal committee is qualified to act upon 1t.
 One bill forbids the use of park ing meters, except under drastic regulations. The other legalizes their use Tlevery respect. While both bills would apply to the entire state, their sponsors are Waterburians, and both were drafted because of the local controversy over the me. ters.
 Senate Bill 154, introduced by Sen. John P. Tobin "by request" is til1- derstood to be sponsored by Atty. John H. Cassidy of this city. It pro- hibits any municipality from erect ing parking meters without obtain ing the written permission of the owners of the properties in front of which the meters are to be erected, and further, without pay- ment to the property owners of whatever sums they feel are due them for such permissiro. No pro- vision is made com condemnation, or for setting of the price by @ neu- tral body. The owner of the prop erty is the only authority to deter. mine the price.
 House Bill 7l3, introduced by Rep. Membrlno, and openly sponsored by the Waterbury city administration, makes 1t legal for any municipality to install parking meters, maintain and service them, prescribe the time for parking beside them, the fees to be charged for such parking, and to collect the fees. This, apparently, was introduced to counter Atty. Cas- sidy's bill.

Pedestrians Urged To Be Cautious On Crossing Streets

Due tO the tremendous ln. crease in pedestrian accidents at night, especially ln dlmOut areas, William A. ThlbOdeau, general manager OG the ALA, urged today that pedestrians crossing streets at night should exercise greater caution than in the past.
 Pedestrians not wearing light clothes were urked by MT. ThlbOdeau to carry an unfold. cd white handkerchief in their hands, or, if walking along the highway for Q considerable distance, to tle . white cloth or handkerchief around one arm.
 Pedestrians must constantly bear in mind that motorists headlights under dimOut cOndl. tlons do not show nearly 90 far nor so high above the ground as in ordinary times.
