COMMITTEE FAVORS
1-WAY TRAFFIC LAW
Recommendations Are Made
in Report Adopted.
OBLIQUE PARKING TO GO
POLICE DEPARTMENT
tV. F. Woodward and W. P. Olds
Oppose Adoption of Report.
Council to Hold Hearing.
One-way traffic to relieve con
gestion In the downtown district is
recommended In a report adopted yes
terday by the Joint committee of busi
ness men and members of the na
tional safety council who met In the
green room of the Ilazelwood. The
adoption of the report was opposed
by William F. Woodward and W. P.
Olds, members of the business men's
committee.
The one-way traffic ordinance, con
sidered recently by the city council,
was amended by the Joint committee
to prohibit oblique or right angle
parking in the congested district be
tween 10 A. M. and 6 P. M. each day
except Sundays or holidays.''
This amendment provides that spe
cial permits can pe issued by the
chief of police, but such permit can
cover only a specif ic ' load,' ' wherein
an emergency exists which makes
necessary parking of vehicles other
than parallel to the curb.
, GiraKC Need Shows.
B. C. Ball, C. C. Hindman and Cap
tain H. A. Lewis, in command, of the
traffic division of the police bureau
compiled the amendment which was
adopted yesterday by unanimous vote.
William F. Woodward, who opposed
the one-way traffic plan as proposed,
contended that before any .such drastic
step should be placed Into effect, all
other suggestions which might aid In
the relief of congestion should be
tried out. He suggested the plan of
prohibiting parking of vehicles at
right angles and also suggested
amendments to the building code,
"which would permit eonstruetion of
garages In the downtown district to
house automobiles in the daytime,
thus taking them from the streets
when not in use.
Mr. Olds also opposed the partial
one-way traffic plan, saying that if
people insisted upon one-way traffic,
it should be made, general through
out the congested district. Mr. Olds
said reports he had received from
cities where one-way traffic had been
Instituted tended to show that the
plan had not been a success.
Eastern ReauHa Cited.
Partial one-way traffic In many
of the eastern cities is proving the
solution of traffic congestion, accord
ing to Captain Lewis, who is the
author of the ordinance now under
consideration. He contended that it
would be impossible at this time ta
adopt a general plan of one-way
traffic and the partial plan not only
would solve the traffic problem, but
would prove helpful to merchants
who now fear the plan will Interfere
with their business.
- Julius L. Meter, vice-president of
the Meier & Frank company an
nounced he would not oppose the one
way traffic law, nor would he oppose
the amendment which prohibited
parking at right angles during the
greater part of the day. If such
measures were necessary for the pro
tection of the public safety.
"Although the prohibition of park
ing at right angles will necessitate a
change In the manner of handling
loading by the firm which I repre
sent, we are ready to abide by any
laws which are necessary for the
safety of the public. Therefore, 1
will not oppose any measure which
is deemed necessary."
Iloneyntnn "ot Opposed.
David T. Honeyman. representing
the Honeyman Hardware company,
directly affected by the prohibition
of parking at right angles, Jso an
nounced no objection to tW ordi
nance. If the majority of the com
mittee believed such regulations
necessary for the relief of traffic and
protection of the public.
The meeting yesterday was attended
by more that 25 business men and
members of the national safety coun
cil. The report adopted will be for
warded immediately to the elty coun
cil and it is probable that a second
public hearing will be held before the
one-way traffic measure finally is
considered for passage by the city
fathers.

ANTWERP, Jan. 7. The sum of
$760,000,000 was realized from the sale
of American stocks remaining in
France after the departure of the
American army, said Brigarlier
tienerai W. D. Connor, chief of staff
of the American department of sup

He estimated the value of the stocks
at $1,700,000,000 and declared it would
have- cost $75,000,000 to take them
back to America.
Had they been retailed in various
countries great losses would have
been entailed, as the expense would
have been heavy, he said. Prance

over, while other allies and smaller
nations purchased supplies for $360,

stocks bought by France that countiy

Your rugs can't grow
a new nap
If you rub the fine, soft nap
off with a stiff corn broom or a
bristly carpet sweeper brush it
can't ever come back. Ever notice
the felt-like wad in an ordinary
carpet sweeper? That fine fuzz is
part of the rug. Most electric
vacuum sweepers are only a little
better they combine suction
and friction. But the friction
wears. That's where the Thor is
different.
A rubber-tooth comb searches
and finds every bit of litter the
suction draws out the dust and
the rug is unharmed.
Convenient terms are arranged.
Let us demonstrate and tell you
about the terms, and own a
Thor, at once !
