OR CQLDS'MISERIES Modem medication of this clonn white rub promptly soothes and comforts, encourages restful sleep, PENETROaSRUB era hadn't used the zonoi prop-urly. bluun ruplleU that the princi pal trouble wua that other per sona were being allowed to use the zones and tnul when u truck came to one to purk, It wua usually filled by aomeono "hav ing a cup of coffee." The mayor answered that the. public villi disapproved of loading zones, and Sloun replied: "The public Isn't even In formed of their proper use nnd need." The mayor flnlulied by auying, "Well, anyway 11 doesn't make U'.iy (inference." Sloan ugrced and suggested that they make a new slurl on the subject, Sloan stilted Unit all the truckers wanted was some wuy of loading and unloading In "the quickest, easiest nnd most con venient wuy" for nil concerned. Hut, ho added, truckers must have some wuy of getting In to the eilores. Chief Hamilton reminded the group that all except three blocks lu the meter area were provided with alleys, nnd asked why the trucks didn't loud in these. He wns told Unit the alleys were usually too congested, with one truck having to wult us much us 40 minutes for other trucks to unload before they could begin. He then nuked why the trucks' dldn I deliver aomc where ele and come back later. Sloan explained that trucks were loaded to conform with certain routing nnd bad to be unloaded In that order. It was also brought out that many mer chants have refused shipments ut their back duors. forcing the truckers to park In front to make deliveries. Muyor Ostcndorf asked the truckers how many trucks were In operation In the meter area both before and after 11 a. m. A census of the various repre sentatives revealed that at least 30 trucks were operating before that time. At his suggiwllnn that the truckers get all their busi ness In the area finished before that time, it was pointed out that most stores did not open before 9 a. m , that many trucks were busy all during the day making pick-ups from the stores for lo cal delivery, and that If the trucking companion were com pelled to operate In the area in such a short space of time, con gestion would result. The mayor told the group that he would present Its prob lem 'to the city council. The truckers will be allowed to park ut the curb In front of the stores until 11:3(1 In the morning until the matter la settled. The truck parking question was carefully avoided at cou v cll meeting last night until Councilman A. V. Condrcy asked the mayor who had given him the "authority lo permit even Ihe temporary settlement of the con troversy?" Condrcy stated that lie wiu against the mayor's ac tion and he didn't feel Hint the truckers should be allowed any special privileges. "There. Is no reason," he sold, "that truckers shouldn't be made to obey tho meter ordi nance just like anyone else." He Htaled that he thought merchants should open up before 9 a. m. to permit all deliveries to be made before that hour if necessary. Tho mayor asked the council to pass a motion favoring the tem porary agreement he had worked out with the truckers; three of the council members agreed, Condrcy gave the dis senting "nay." Condrcy also pointed out lo the council thai two different clauses pertaining to the main tenance of the meters were in the city's contract with the com pnny. The first clause states that the company will maintain me ters at its own expense, the other clausa allows the city the option of taking 25 centi per meter per month from the rev enue for maintenance, Condrey said inai uie in coma per meter would net tho city (109 per month for 607 meters, while the city would have to pay a man $2111 to service them. The company'! service man hero temporarily pointed out that for the company to main tulu the meters tho niBchlnes would have to be taken from the pouts, crated and shipped back to Hartford, Conn., for re pairs. During this time tho city would be losing revenue from meters and In tho long run It would coat much more. Condrcy stated that In any cose the council should resolve to adopt one clause or tho other. It was decided that the council would study the matter and take action at tho next meeting. Condrcy also asked the coun cil to hnve the traffic safety committee investigate the con trol of traffic at the Intersection of Spring aid S. 8th, and the possibility of placing stop signs on Oak where it Intorsects Spring, Baton Rouge Editor Dies At Age Of 65 BATON ROUGE, La., Jan! 28 (A'l Charles Phelps Manshlp, OS, editor and publisher of the Kalon Rouge State-Times and Morning Advocate, member of the board of directors of the American Newspaper Publishers association and u. a. associated director of censorship In World war 2, died last night.
