Restriction of all vehicles to 15 minute stops In the business district may be the City Council's means of overcoming objections of merchants to the new traffic ordinance, which would allow taxlcabs and for hire automo biles to stand for. an unlimited time in the greater part of the business dis trict. The question will be before the Council today. . . The new traffic ordinance provides tnat if the driver remains in the auto mobile he shall not be subject to the rule which limits the stop to 30 minutes during the daytime. Merchants have raised a vigorous protest against this provision owing to the fact that it would open the way for abuses by the taxicab and for hire car drivers. It is argued that they could stand in front of a place for hours with no means of the owner of the premises forcing them to move on. , Mayor Albee is the proponent of the change in the measure which would limit stops to 15 minutes throughout the business district except on streets -here stopping should not be per mitted at all.

Business Talk Number 14 Rapid Turn-overs One Answer to Rising Costs Oldest Bank in the Northwest Established in 1859 By turning its capital three times a year at 7 per cent net, a business makes more money than by turning its capital twice at 10 per cent net. Numerous small profits more than offset the few long ones. In everyday English, quick sales at small profits is the big idea in meeting rising costs or expenses. The average grocer should torn his stock about ten times, the department store seven times, the druggist four and one-half times, the hardware man three and one-half times, the shoe dealer twice, and so on. TJiese are average figures and may not exactly represent local conditions, but they serve as a good guide to work to. If you are handling any of the above lines, how does your turn-over compare with the figure given? It is important that you should know. Turning stock rapidly means good selling methods, right buy ing and simple, comprehensive, accurate accounts. Remember, efficiency In ac counting is as important as in buying and selling. The question of turn-overs has been brought forcibly, to our attention through intimate con tact with other lines of business and it is in harmony with our policy of helpful service to rec ommend that more thought be given to this important subject. We will be glad to consult on business problems with you at any' time. We may be able to offer some helpful suggestions. You are welcome to the bene fits of our experience in solving business problems and our ob servations of how others have solved them.
