Cross-Town Plan Favored (Continued from Page One) streets are not adversely affect ed. He said that certain other communities of the state, not ably' Coos Bay, had asked the commission to establish one-way streets to care for a problem similar to here. Nelson Reed said that he owned a business for a tune lo cated on a one-way street in Medford, and it was found to be more advantageous than a two way street. R. C. Dale said he felt that Plan No. 1 would be to the greatest advantage to the city. and that he believes the one way system would be beneficial. He made a motion that the group present, as individuals make an expression in favor of this plan. The motion was sec onded by jonn .Houston and carried. Improve Traffic In the discussion, the state ment was made that one-way traffic on Klamath avenue and Main street would improve traf fic movement to any point in the Main-Klamath sector and cross-streets over the present condition. Houston asked in particular what the effect would . be on traffic coming into Klamath for trading purposes from surround ing rural and suburban areas. Baldock, using a map, declared that traffic from any outside area could ' reach downtown points with less delay and con fusion under the proposed sys tem. Baldock explained that he could not give any assurance how soon the cross-traffic sys tem would be established, con struction authorization being a matter for the highway com mission rather than the engi neer. He said that it would be necessary for the city- council to adopt ordinances establishing one-way traffic before the new system could be inaugurated. Baldock agreed to have a map drawn showing plan No. 1 for use in The Herald and News as soon as possible. If the world Is to be comfort able and prosperous, industry and labor must produce to the best of their ability. Production, in the final analysis, is the key to full employment. --Jacksonville, Fla., Journal. Strikers Ploy Football At Philadelphia Plant .i: .: i. i . r ' hi-1 g -fii.'jui Mf Ti 2 -"Uyli "-e .
