PIONEER WOMAN
ON LONG TRUDGE
GIVE TRAFFIC LAW
FURTHER T
-Because It was deemed that tho
chamber of commerce and Retail
Morehants' association were not
fully conversant with the provi
sions of the proposed new traffic
ordinance to govern conditions In
the business section, and the' fact
that the Retail Merchants' asso
ciation had adopted a resolution
that the present traffic ordinance
be given a further trial and
strictly enforced,' together with
the fact' that only five of the
eight councllmen were present,
the city council did not puss that
ordlnanco lust night, as expocted.
The matter .was deferred to a
future meeting. ,
Instead, Mayor Pipes, City At
torney Carkln and Councllmen
flray, Kershuw, Hammond, Mc-"
Elhose and Wing,- and liernard
Roberts of tho city planning com
mission, hud a long discussion of
tho proposed chnnges.
In general Mayor. Pipes und
some councllmen held that the
crux of the traffic problem .was
double parking, and that elimina
tion of double parking would1
leave no truffle problem. Others
hold, Including Mr. Roberts, that
the establishment of unloading
zones to bo fixed by the council
street committee, and with n half-
hour parking limit, as tho new
ordinance provides, would do
nway entirely with tho double
parking problem.
The city planning commission
lias worked for months past on
the proposed ordinance, with Mr.
Roberts doing most of the actual
work, which Is in conformance
with tho national Department of
Commerce traffic code for
cl(les adopted utter two yenrs of
study and Investigation, known as
the Hoover traffic code, and width
has also been adopted by the
state. - . ..
, Mr. Roberts road tho lengthy
ordinnnco, explained '. Its origin
and changes, and also gave the
result of a questionnaire lie per
sonally obtained from many coast
cities. . '.'.
Mr. Roberts held firmly that
the council should pass the ordi
nance and not await any further
word from the business Interests.
During the discussion Councilman
R. B. Hammond stated that the
resolution adopted by. tho mer
chants' association "was rail
roaded through without dlscus-
s'on," or even the reading of the
vory long proposed ordinance.
Therefore, tho merchants who
noted so hustlly did not under
stand its provisions, ho said.
To enable all business mon and
others to get fully convcrsunt with
the ' proposed ordinance,. It was
decided" to delay further action
until a full council meeting.
It was also pointed out that It
was tho city council's duty to
pass laws for the benefit of the
entire 'city and not for morchnnts
alone.
The ninyor nnd council thanked
Mr, Roberts and the planning
commission for tho big work they
bad done In the preparation .of
the ordinance. '
