Barr Says Keeney Parking Plan
Would Lead to Financial Chaos
Medford should "thank its
lucky stars" the municipal
off-street parking proposal
failed at the polls last Dec.
10, according to .William G.
Barr, executive director of the
National Parking association.
Barr said yesterday the
"Keeney Plan" for a 400-car
parking platform straddling
the Southern Pacific railroad
tracks is "foolhardy" and
would lead to "financial
chaos."
The Keeney Plan itself de
veloped by Robert Keeney, a
local architect, was not at
issue in the election. But it
was considered a likely pro
gram if voters had approved
: the enabling legislation on the
ballot.
Barr told an estimated 75
people at a special Jackson
county Chamber of Commerce
luncheon that there are not
enough businesses within a
block and a half of the
Keeney parking platform's
proposed location, on the
tracks between Main and
Sixth sts. to support it.
Too Many Spaces
"Its fault is there 'would
be too many car spaces in one
location," he said.
"You ought to thank your
lucky stars that referendum
did not pass.
"A municipal parking pro
gram honestly reflects," Barr
said, "the honest belief of all
of us that we can find a pan
. acea to our parking prob
lems." . But he noted among its
drawbacks the city's obliga
tion under such a program to
pledge a portion of its on-
street parking meter receipts
to help pay off the necessary
bond issue.
He said there will come a
time when a city wants to
take away the meters and
' prohibit parking on down
town streets to ease mount
ing congestion. He pointed
out this would be impossible
if the meter receipts have
been pledged.
Labor Costs
" The labor cost of operating
. a self-parking lot, Barr said,
would be about $100 a month.
' He recommended hiring elder
ly persons on social security
as lot attendants, since they
can earn up to that amount
without endangering their
government benefits.
He explained that these
downtown lots should be pri
marily for the benefit of
short-term parkers, especially
t those who are .shopping or
making other business trips.
' He said the rate structure
would determine whether
short-or long-term parkers
use the lots.
He recommended 10 cents
per half hour to encourage
short-term use.
. Barr also discussed the
."park and shop" system, an
arrangement between lot pro
, prietors and merchants where
. by shoppers can obtain free
parking by purchasing mer
chandise in par ticipating
stores. .
Receives Ticket
He explained that the mo
I . . , Precision, perhaps more than any one factor, has placed
. Cadillac above and beyond other motor cars. In every
phase of design... manufacture .-..and assembly, meticu-
V lous care is devoted to even the most minor of details. .

torist receives a ticket upon
entering the lot, to which a
stamp is affixed in every
member store where he or she
visits or makes a minimum
purchase. Each stamp entitles
the person to an hour's free
parking.
The merchants under this
system buy the stamps from
the lot owners, generally
through a bank, to distribute
to their customers.
"In no city," Barr asserted,
has the cost to the merchants
"ever exceeded one-tenth of
one per cent of gross sales."
Asked what portion of those
using the lot take advantage
of the free parking, he re
plied that 54 per cent of the
gross business of his own lots
in Illinois comes from this
use.
Proper Space Use
Barr told the. group they
should not consider additional
parking, .however, until they
"make proper use" of the
present , on - street parking
meter spaces.
He said that meter feeding,
prohibited by city ordinance,
must be discouraged by the
"religious, everyday, hour by
hour use of chalk on the tire"
to determine who are violat
ing the ' law by occupying
meter spaces more than their
allotted time.
He suggested, hiring "a
couple of housewives" rather
than 'requiring city ' police to

As Undisputed Head
By HENRY SHAPIRO
United Press International
Moscow - (UPD - Western ob
servers said today that Pre
mier - Nikita S. Khrushchev
emerged from the 21st Com
munist Party congress as
Russia's undisputed leader
with complete approval for
his policy of economic chal
lenge to the West.
The congress fully endorsed
his seven-year-plan for eco
nomic development of the
Soviet Union. Every one of
the speeches at the nine-day
meeting gave him absolute ap
proval, praising his wisdom,
initiative and boldness. '
There was not a hint of
criticism- in; any of the
speeches of his foreign and
domestic policies. All indica
tions were the Communist
Party Central Committee now
would meet to place its stamp
of approval on the Khrush
chev program, and draw de
crees to carry out resolutions
passed by the congress.
Predict Party Expulsion
Western observers here pre
dicted the Central Committee
also would show its confi
dence ' in Khrushchev by ex
pelling the three members of
the anti-party group still in
its ranks - former Premier
Nikolai - Bulganin. Mikhail
Pervukhin and Maxim Sa-
burov - and elect new mem
bers. The forgotten man of the
perform this function. "Give
them uniforms and a chalk on
a stick," he said.
Barr stated that 40 per cent
of those using parking meter
spaces are meter feeders.
In Fringe Areas '
He told downtown business
men they would have to park
in . "fringe" areas several
blocks away to make room for
their customers. ;.
He also recommended adop
tion of the "tandem , pair"
method of parking,, in which
two car spaces are placed
close together with an eight
foot maneuvering space be
tween each pair. This, he said,
cuts down the time necessary
to enter and leave the curb
spaces.
This method is already in
use on certain . downtown
streets here, except that the
maneuvering spaces have not
been designated - as Barr
recommends - with a large X
painted on the pavement.
Barr gave attention in his
talk as well to methods of
promoting off-street parking
lots and the "park and shop"
system. He suggested that the
city erect signs directing traf
fic to the lots. -
After the luncheon, he met
briefly with city officials, in
cluding Mayor John W.
Snider. Later in the afternoon
he departed for Klamath Falls
where he was to make another
appearance. ,
21st congress was Josef Stalin.
There was hardly a reference
to the man who enjoyed' ab
solute rule of Soviet Commu
nism for three decades and no
further discussion of the Stalin
personality cult exposed at
the last congress in 1956.
The praise of the hew 'pre
mier and Communist Party
secretary was accompanied by
mass acceptance of his thesis
that to accomplish all its goals
Russia must be friendly and
flexible on the outside and
tough and consistent on the
inside.
Invites Ike
Nowhere was this more evi
dent than in Khrushchev's
closing speech, in which he
invited President Eisenhower
to come to Russia while at the
same time condemning Vice
President Richard M. Nixon
and Secretary of State John
Foster Dulles for ."bellicose
phraseology" to prevent an
end to the cold war.
Khrushchev took special
pains to tell the world that
Russia was tired of the cold
war and wanted a "thaw."
But not once did he suggest a
change in the Soviet position
on Berlin, Germany, and the
Far and Middle East.

ture has found benzene hexa
chloride to be an effective

ination of common chicken
