Bicycle Listing
Put Up to Police

The District Commissioners
today asked police officials for
comment on a proposal by the
Youth Council for compulsory
registration of bicycles.
The council, at its last meet
ing. voted to ask the Commits
sioners to consider legislation
for compulsory registration.
The council said that the
number of stolen bicycles has
dropped sharply. and recovery
has risen. since a voluntary
plan went into eff
feet in November, 1855. How
ever, the council pointed out,
only about a fourth of the esti-
number of bicycles in the
city have been registered.
The concern of the advisory
group is that bicycle theft is an
early manifestation of delin-
quency.

Your children are married
and settled down somewhere
else. You think you'd like TO
be near them when you re-
tire. so YOU keep kicking
around the idea Of MOVING
to their city. But you're hesi-
tant because you don't know
what the living costs might
be there,
Mr.. and Mrs. George
Fowler have some advice for
you.
The Fowlers lived in
Maryland Che was with the
Federal Government), and
when retirement came they
had married children living
in Chicago, New Orleans and
Los Angeles.
They visited all three
cities. investigated thorough
ly what life would be like
If they moved In. They
compared their findings
with data about other cities
which they got from the
Department OF Commerce.
Then they returned home
and tried to size up. in every
way. what their relationship
would be with their children
If they followed them into
O strange city.
Then they picked UP and
moved to Asheville, N. c.

TO be nice when you move
In, win seriously search for
somebody your age to in
troduce you to. They'll come
up with O couple Of widows,
have q dinner and introduce
you and trust that everything
then will be fine. The widows
Will be gracious. will invite
you to church and then will
fade away. Socially, you will
shift for yourself after that.
4. The breadwinner in your
child's family, no matter
what his business. can be
transferred to a job in an.
other city. This can happen
three months after you move
in.
5. Living costs are about
the same In all United States
cities. II you buy your food
In stores. you will find prices
fairly uniform. But housing
and services vary. Mr.. Fowler
says Chicago. st. Louis and
New York have the most ex-
pensive housing, in that
order. and that services (such
as repairs. dry cleaning. etc.
decrease slightly In cost as
the city decreases in size.
6. II you move to q city
