"Regulation of traffic doos not be long in the police department," th< chief said. "It is not oven polici work. Prevention and detection o crime is the work of the police de partment. "I strongly favor a new divisior of the municipal government to tak< ov< r the traffic entirely. This would divorce it from the police depart ment. My Idea is for the creation o! a traffic commission composed of traffic engineers, which would have full responsibility for traffic regula* tion. "Police officers could be relieved from traffic duty entirely and in their place be detailed specially trained traffic officers, who would have no connection with the police department. The officers would wear different uniforms than the po lice and would have the authority to enforce traffic laws only. Chief Vollmer said there were nu merous reasons why the traffic prob lem should be taken from the police department and cited the following: The widening and lengthening of city streets is strictly a traffic prob lem. still the thief of police ha- nothing to say about it. He should not; a chief of police does not know anything about the widening of a street. The granting of electric street railway franchises and bus lines is iu the discretion of the city council. That is a traffic question and the ac tion of the council may seriously handicap police efforts to regulate traffic. The chief of police has noth mg to say regarding the granting ot such franchises; still he is required to regulate traffic. t' lap auto race In his Podge special. Iriaby, No. 10, was second.
