Charges Hurled When Meter Men Get Together There were charges, counter charges and personalities when member sof the City Counctl and representatives of Unimatic and Park-O-Metcr car parking meters were together most of Monday afternoon. The occasion for this was a re port that City Manager J. L. Franrer was to make at the Mon day night Council meeting on operation of the 300 or so Uni matics that the city installed last September on a years trial, basis, and which have been the subject of much complaint. j The manager made his report, which had been requested by Alderman David O'Hara, but it was conservative ,and it was de cided to make an actual test by installing both Unimatics and Park O-Mctcrs in some downtown area, both to be in good condi tion at the start, so that at the end of a given time the two types may be checked against each ' each other. Salem has 1500 or more Park-O-Meters, the first having been installed about seven years ago. Franzen reminded the Council that the Park-O-Meters are in the heavily traffic-congested districts and the Unimatics where usage is not heavy, which he didn't think made dollar-for-dollar com parison possible. Mayor A I Loucks agreed with this. Alderman O'Hara finally agreed with it, though he first thought the city manager's report was inadequate, and he said he didn't see why a judgment on op eration of the Unimatics could not be made in six months time. He recalled that the first meters in stalled in Salem, a manual type, had been removed after a few months trial. QUEEN FLIES AFTER CLOUDS LIFT HOBART.
