This aetion results from the large number of complaints re ceived by police concerning the lack of parking space arising from congestion caused by war construction activities. Confeiences attended by mem bers of the public safety com mittee of the city council and by police have suggested that much of the trouble Is from disregard of rules governing overtime parking. Establishment of 13-mlnute parking zones has not entirely eased the matter. To familiarize the public with the ordinance governing parking in the business area a portion follows: "Section 3. Parkins Tim Limits. () The lawful time allowed for parking vahtclea shall. In any sec tion of any street, be as Indicated by lettering upon the face of painted signs placed at the top of standards placed along the curb Una of any section of any street. Such time lim its and Indication thereof may be changed from Ume to time by reso lution. Such time limits shall mean the aggregate of time of all parking of any one vehicle within a space of 830 feet measured along the curb line and shall not exceed tha time limit posted. (b) Such time limits shall not ap ply on Sundays or legal holidays or between the hours of 6 p. m. and 8 a. m." E New Delhi, India, April 23.

The Japanese, striking through the Shan states within 100 miles of devastated Mandalay, thrust forward in three columns around Taunggyi in an effort to encircle the outnumbered troops under Gen. Joseph W. Stilwell. U. S. A. One Japanese spearhead which reached Hopong drove abruptly northeast In the direction of Loilem, 22 miles away, while another column sought to move west and encircle Taunggyi. Still a third unit was striking out 16 miles further west of Taunggyi.
