LET'S HAVE SAFER PARKING

THE DEPARTMENT Of Public Safety should put
into effect one more traffic regulation which would
make for much greater safety and uniformity of opera
ton. Cars and trucks, in fact, all vehicles, should be
required to park only on the side Of the street or high
way on which they lawfully may drive.Put another way,
since there is left-hand drive in this Island, then park
ING should be only on the left hand side Of the street
with the vehicle heading only in the direction in which
it could be driven.
SUCH A MEASURE as here suggested has been
time-tested and proved and found to be one OF the great
est safety factors in the entire field Of traffic admins
tration. The advisability of such a change Immediately
becomes apparent when even the slightest thought is
given to the problems which indiscriminate parking
creates under the present system.
OF COURSE, where the traffic is one-way, then
the difficulty is not SO acute because OF the elimination
Of crossing from one side Of the street to the other. But
in tWo-way traffic the situation can become highly
dangerous as cars and trucks switch from one side to
the other in search of parking space, or perhaps for no
good reason whatever.
AN ILLUSTRATION might serve to clarity the
picture. Suppose, for example, that a vehicle is heading
east on a two-way street, it follows that with left-hand
drive the car or truck mustbe on the north sid e
of the street. Should the driver decide to park on the
south side of the street he must cross a lane OF traffic
going in the. opposite direction. which is always highly
dangerous and one of the most frequent causes OF acct
dents. All of this could be corrected if the driver could
not cross the street, but was required by law to park
on the same side of the road on which he is already
driving.
TRAFFIC SAFETY regulations being what they
are, the order that there be parking only on the side of

the street on which vehicles may properly be driven
need come only from the office of the Director of Public
Safety.
HERR IS A situation that can be corrected easily
and quickly, and it would do SO much to further protect
life and vehicles.

Challenge OF
Conversation Stressed


In no part of the country "are
the possibilities and challenges of
conservation 50 great as in the
northeast area" Erwin L. Peter
son, misunderstanding of the u.
S. Department OF Agriculture, told
more than 200 members Of the
Northeast Area. National Associa-
tion Of Soil Conservation District
Supervisors.
Mr.. Peterson cited the condi-
tions peculiar to the northeast sec
tion-great industrializatiOn, some
exploitation of forests. streams
and farmland. and the steady
swing of urban population from
the metropolitan centers to sub
urbs and country.
The northeast area picture rep
resents one of pressure of popula-
tion against the land. There is a
great diversity of opinion as to
how to solve the conservation
problems of the northeast: the
voices of farmer, manufacturer of
forest products, industrialist, city
and state government heads and
others evidence many individual
approaches to the problem OF con-
serving our resources" the speaker
declared
Mr.. Peterson warned that the
problems of agriculture will not
be solved by political methods"
because they exist chiefly in the
social and economic fields.
The Department of Agriculture
official also observed that 1,0O0,-
600 acres of land are being with
drawn from productivity yearly,
and stressed the need to find an
answer to the growing problem of
'rurbanization-" the increased
conversion OF productive farmlands
for airfields, super-highways, sub
urban communities and aiTports.
Must Stress Protection
AS a conference.-the against
these threats to soil and water re-
sources, Mr.. Peterson said the con-
servatiOnists of the various dis
tricts should bring home to the
public the necessity for protection
of the resources. He said that the
farmers and other landowners
should be educated to the essen
tial nature of the conservation. pro-
gram. Mr.. Peterson also called for
"an inventory of conservation re-
Sources
The speaker proposed the adop-
tion of small watershed programs.
and their advancement as quickly
as possible, and stated that if the
conservation effort is to be success
full. 1t must include more state and
local participation.
MIR. Peterson, a native Of Oregon,
then observed that he saw many
simiIarities between East and
West" in the series of problems
involving projection and conser-
vation of natural resources.
The dinner was presided over by

The stagecoach, drawn by an
auto, finally collapsed during the

wheel there.
Police came upon the remains
and the abandoned auto. then went
to work tracking down the cul-
prits.
Four youngsters were arrested
but released after they promised
to pay the stagecoach's owner, l.

Watersheds Discussed
At an afternoon session, speakers
in panel discussion on the topic,
Floods and Watershed PrOtec-
ton, agreed that progressive
watershed practices prove their
great value in times of drought.
Panelists were: Carl Brown of
the Soil Conservation Service,

Of CouderspOrt. Pa: Howard
ThOmburg of Barboursville, W.
Va; Dave Unger of Harrisburg,
Pa, was the chairman and Hugh
G. Little, area director, of Dover,
n. H., called the session to order.
The paneiists and the apprOxi-
mately $50 cOnserYatiOnists max
ing up the audience decided upon
program for concerted action
20 educate Congress to the need
for watershed development, and to
overcome the opposition of the
u. s. Corps of Army Engineers"
The conservationists agreed that
the system of constructing small
dams nearer the source of the riv-
ers should achieve better flood
control and water conservation
that the huge dams Constructed
because Of clamor from the cities. "
All the panelists agreed that there
is too much political pulling and
hauling in the conservation pic
