of business feel that farmers who
come to town for groceries, etc.
will resent the fact that they have
to pay to park while they shop and
this will force a lot of business to
other towns.
The writer was assured by one
member of the town council that
Parking meters will clear up a
very bad traffic situation which we
are all aware of. However, 1 can't
help but feel Parking Meters will
only encourage double parking.
Since double parking seems to be
the biggest crime in Smyrna, isn't
there some other way of solving
this problem.
Here are some facts that were
CLEANED from a calculator. There
are going to be 112 parking meters
placed in Smyrna. Each parking
meter costs app. $1,000 each. 112
Parking Meters x $1,000 equals
$8,848.00. The meter company will
take 1850 of the take until the
meters are paid for. This means
that before Smyrna can realize the
full revenue they must collect and
pay to the meter company S84, 900
Pennies or 10000 Nickles. This
is a lot of coins for a town of app.
1900 people, not all of whom drive
cars.
Since a survey shows that the
majority of the people concerned
do not want these meters and the
time element for getting full rev.
enue is so great, why are We plan
ming to put in these parking met
ers.

To the Editor
Smyrna Times
Dear Sir:
On Saturday, February %, per-
sonally interviewed 20 home own
ers and store keepers along Com
lmerce and Main Streets in order
to determine how many of these
persons wanted parking meters in
front of their stores and homes.
All of these people were asked the
following questions: with answers.
1. Do you think Parking Met
ers will help Smyrna? 21 said NO
5 said YES. 8 DIDN'T KNOW.
2. Do you think Parking Met
ers will Help your business? %
saidNO. said YES.
8. Do you want Parking Meters
in Smyrna? % said NO. 6 said
YES.
A. Have you ever been ap-
preached on the subject of Parking
Meters either by the Town Council
or the Town Manager 27 HAD
NOT. 2 HAD.
1t seems to the writer that these
store keepers and home owners
are the ones who will be more af-
fected by the placing of Parking
meters in Smyrna than anyone
else since they rely on customers
who come to their place Of busi-
ness from out of town, plus the
people of the town. Further in
