W'Hh 19 policemen In the congested
district instructing the public on the
Br rules regulating traffic, the situ
ation showed a decided improvement
je.terday. Traffic Sergeant Lewis,
mho was In charge of the squad, said
conditions were per cent better.
lt to in macnine concerneo. ana no
casualties, occurred in the downtown
district, a far as reports to the police
showed. The public in general, say the
patrolmen, showed a disposition to co
o;erate in the new regulations.
The only ones who protested con
cerning: the "jay-walk ing" restrictions.
t- which much opposition waa expect
ed, were elderly persons who had
tnwn set in their manner of pedes
trianism. and boys.
M.aaaa Vote ladlgwatloa.
These laws were made for fool.
Tuy don't apply to me. one old woman
indignantly told Patrolman ilallon. She
p r.isted in walking diagonally across
a stree-t Intersection, dodging; a mase
of traffic.
"ne thinks she got by for a good
many years. I guess, so she doesn't be
l.eve in changing now.- sighed the
policeman good-naturedly. "Well, they
toM as to be polite, and you know It's
hard to break an old dog of his trot."
This was far from the general atti
tude, however. Many pedestrians who
bail seen traffic conditions In Eastern
a.i'l Middle West cities expressed ap
proval of the aikrptlon of "modern traf
fic laws" In Portland.
"Jay-walking" was the principal
p'.a.ie of the new ordiance taken up
eterday. When the public has been
Instructed thoroughly regarding that
angi. the new parking laws will be
gradually enforced.
