HKF.D8 MORE MEW . Tn keen the traffic situation In hand a n.v. r.lilia nH nareleng drivers. Ijewts says he murt have more men. At the present time Lewis nas eiKiu men working semaphores, five men directing t Vi iirh Mid tairsfiniT ma chines, and nlno motorcycle riders. With i -t voui riHun now worklna on viurc . t . ..- - - accidents, only six men are left to watch speeders and suburban violators. In ad dition to the three accident men, Lewis says he need IS motorcycle officers, eight more semaphore men during the Jay and five more for niRht work. Lewis has made a careful study of the Aowntown traffic situation. Judging from personal investigation and the ac cident reports, he believes semaphore of ficers are needed during the dayon the following corners In addition to the eight now being served: Broadway and Al der, Fifth and Alder, Broadway and 8tark, Sixth and Stark, Fifth and Stark. Broadway and Gllsan. During the rush hours at night. Lewis says he needs ex tra men to cover front and Madison, First and Madison, Second and Morrison, Larrabce and Broadway and Union and Broadway. The five men who he wants to work the above crossings during the rush hours would be transferred to the West Side about 7 o'clock. In time to handle the evening theatre crowds. WOULD ADO HO COST Lewis says they are needed at Broad way and Washington, Bro&dwax. and Morrison, Fifth and Washington, Fifth and Morrison and Third and Morrison. The addition of these extra men will not add any additional cost to the city, Lewis said, pointing to figures from January t to August 1 of last year. At tha time there were eight motorcycle men detailed to this relief. During the six months they arrested zass persons, i.v, . ir.irl nf Illi.747 in fines. Lewis has figured that the original cost of the machines, their upkeep tor eacn monin. salaries of the riders and a sergeant amounted to 12.853. This would leave a hnlanrfl nf 12894. "In figuring this I have not taken any time out for men laid up by accident or detailed to war work," Lewis said, "which would really cut us to an average of fiver riders working each month." .nmiiitr the nrriod covered by the above .A.r.rl thorn were 4043 accidents re ported. 604 persons injured and 17 killed within the city limits.
