Salt Lake City Has Meter Maids; Traffic Improved By RICHARD B. LANEY United Press Correspondent Sale Lake City (IB The toughest cops in Salt Lake City these days also are the pret tiest. They're the Meter Maids, women law enforcement offic ers who patrol parking meters in the congested downtown are to issue tickets for overparking. They have proved to be tough er than casa-hardened policemen when ths; motorist tries to talk his way out o being given a ticket. The Metpr Maid patrol first was created in July, 1954, with the idea that the woman would relieve regular policemen from meter patrolling for other duty. But the use of women to hand out tickets for overtime parking, improper parking, lack of prop er vehicle registration ard loca tion of stolen cars has produced an unexpected dividend. A Lot of Walking It has resulted in a great im provement in the flow of traf fic through the metropolitan area. Police Chief W. Cleon Skou sen said that because the Meter Maids bad caused a greater turn over in the use of parking meters - -parking at a meter tor more than one botu ii no longer per mitteddowntown stores had experienced a 2? per cent in crease in business. This turnover is especially im portant because only 3.500 park ing spaces are available tor the 70,000 automobiles that travel through downtown Salt Lake City each day. Each of the city's 12 Meter Maids walks eight to 10 miles a day, sod some of the women wear out a pair of shoes a month. Th .?roup issues an average of 18,000 tickets each month. A the rete of $t or more for each violation this means at least $18,000 per month in the city's coffers. The Meter Maids, whose tech nical designation under civil service is meter readers, actual ly are not policewomen although they are under supervision of the police department's traffic division. The women range in age from 25 to 40, and all but one are mar ried and have children. Their pay is $175 a month jStamp Club Plans Meeting Friday Southern Oregon Stamp club will meet Friday, June 7, at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Kenneth Lewis, 6B8 Roca avenue, Ash land Reports will be made on the Northwest Federation of Stamp clubs convention held recently ir Bellingham, Wash., and stamp sale will be held- Anyone needing transporta tion to the meeting is asked to call Mrs. S. Bon Cordier, SP 3-1848. If. - j Si Friendly Indifference Good For Eafing Strike Champaign, 111. ilP If your child is on an eating strike, let him miss a meal or two. A University of Illinois nurs ery school dietitian said that a mother shouldn't panic when Junior refuses to eat. Instead, said Mrs. Rita McGreer, she should keep an attitude of "friendly indifference," and not force him to eat. The child will not starve to death if he misses one meal. Mrs. McGreer believes it is wise to let the child decide when and how much to eat. But she stressed that the food be tasty, nutritious and attractive, and the portions small enough. Lighting Institute Says Many Americans Live in Dreary Gfoom New York TO Many Amer icans need to be shown the light, literally, says the American Home Lighting Institute. A recent institute nrvpv showed four out of five Ameri cans are living in dreary gloom, only a few candles removed from tbe light provided by the cave man's fire, it said. Some 80 per cent of the na tion's homes have less than 11 light fixtures, the institute said. Minimum good home lighting standards call for at least 25 lights. i Dead line Sunday Classified Is st at noon Saturday Superb trill be ystt reaction to this gourmet dish.

Since Salt Lake City first started using Meter Maids, the city has had inquiries about the system from such cities as Den ver, San Antonio, Wichita Falls, Tex., and Washington, D. C. Sev eral other cities have started similar programs. Chief Skousen has only, praise for his "girls." "They are one of the most efficient and effect ive branches of the police force," he said, "and because of them traffic here is much more fluid than in cities of comparable size." Meter Maids wear badges the same as those of regular police officers but do not carry guns. Tharagh, gmHa Sun! ton (loaning bast for sl you aaiwmii, woolens and . hoHMhoU fabrics!
