i.v (that of preventing: the all-day parking imposition by prohibiting early morning parking down town), is hero today and gone tomorrow—then how is a city to break up unsafe, confusing and rankly inconsiderate driving and* parking habits?	<
'J'HINK invites Chief Vrllmer to contribute a word-picture of conditions along San Antonio’s narrow downtown streets which served well enough when used under the one-way-traffic regulation, but which frequently suggest a log-jam in a river'’now that they have been thrust bad: to two-way traffic and two-side parking which block access to stores and other business-places.
■JfT IS, the Chief considers, “impossible for police departments to change the nicnt’.l habits of the public through enforcement campaigns, but good road manners are dependent to a very large measure upon the uniform behavior of people who utilize the highways. This in turn is very largely dependent upon uniform legislation.” And those old. familiar spasmodic “drives” to enforce traffic regulations work little improvement in the habits of a community whose routing and parking regulations were modern, sound and sensible in 1030, but are of a seedy back-number variety in 1031. Again observe that Berkeley's celebrated authority on police responsibility for public safety emphasizes the necessity of conforming with “FIXED” traffic rules.
•pOR ONE THING, it was salu-tary to learn that the regulation which sought to break up the seriously uneconomic practice of all-day or other long-time parking in the main downtown shopping area, by keening the streets clear up to the accustomed hour for owning the day’s business, had due regard for the democratic principle of equal rights for nil and special privileges for none. Too bad that essential lesson was knocked into a cocked hat here.

was suppressed, hut at a late hour: on groups of dcmonsfrMors* srill wbr<* on-hanging about the streets. The main thoroughfares were patrolled De by police.	a”
