The Immediate question confronting cities Is to fit truffle to the streets, they declare. This can be done with little expense and little dr lay by proper control of parking. The ultimate problem Is to fit the streets to traffic, which will cost much money. "Kvcntuul prohibition of park ing must come.',' the report of the experts says, "In ' view of the fact that traffic will continue to In crease and that ut tempts to re lieve . congestion by purklng time limitations, truffle diversion nnd other restrictions ' do not und cun not sutlsfuctorlly nnd finally cure for the Interests of the public gen erally, the merchant und tho au tomobile owner.

While our co operative title Is "Kngilsh," there really is nothing Kngllsh about It save tho lunguufre which we use in all our services. Other terms have been used,, but rather confuse more than help. "Amerlcun. Lutheran" really Includes Swedish ' nnd Nor wegian Lutherans, and "American lunguage" really means tho Indian tongue. Therefore Ihero Is nolhlng left for us but to use tho ' term "Kngllsh," for a while until It is generally known, that we preach In no foreign language, .and then w e will drop this -term altogether.
