way stops in this district. We have had suggestions covering Fourth. Sixth, Seventh and Ninth streets, running east and west, and Central avenue, Race, Walnut and Main streets, running north and south. These suggestions are not practical and if they were adopted it would throw traffic into a state of chaos under present conditions. "The situation downtown is now so serious that we must keep traffic going.

It is very easy to devi-se ways to stop it. If motorists will obey the law, which is seven and one half miles over crossings, there will be little danger at intersections. "Held 1'nder Control." "The arterial highway system was never intended or planned for congested areas except where highways extend on through the center of a city and even then it is always held under control by traffic officers directing the movements of the drivers. We have no such thoroughfares in the congested areas of Cincinnati. We are at present giving more study to safety zones in the congested area and are considering the establishment of elevated platforms at one or two important locations.

"In general the Police Department is gradually progressing in the betterment of traffic conditions. We earnestly solicit the co-operation of the public and it mist be remembered that with the Police Department traffic is only one. of the many branches that we must cover, while the autoist is specializing and is in a position to criticize traffic conditions. We can feature no one branch, but must follow reported safe and housebreaking jobs, burglaries, murders, shooting, cutting, pickpockets, confidence men and numerous violations. If we were able to drop all of the work necessitated by the latter, it would be much easier for us to make rapid progress with traffic.

As it is we are severely handicapped by a shortage of men. Nevertheless we will do our utmost to handle the whole situation." that character, and consequently it will not be urged at the meeting." In a statement issued yesterday Safety Director Charles E. Tudor announced additional arterial highways would not be designated at this time. "We are receiving many suggestions daily from interested persons," he said, "as to the establishment of additional arterial highways. While we are glad to receive these suggestions which we investigate and decide as to their practical value and file the data for future use, we ran-not at present create additional arterial highways for the following reasons.

"In establishing and putting into effect the arterial highway system, it was our intention to concentrate on a few thoroughfares and give the public an opportunity to become accustomed to the regulations covering them, and until we can get those that have been established under control, it is inadvisable to enlarge the present list. "It is our intention to add important thoroughfares, one at a time, to the list of arterial highways at a later date. We are pleading with the motor car owners for co-operation. The situation is improving, but in view of the fact that we gave at least three weeks' notice of the date set for enforcement and have been making citations for about two weeks, the improvement is not sufficient to convince us that the larger percentage of drivers are giving thought to the regulation. "We have made several hundred citations, in fact, so many have been brought to Court, that it is almost impossible for the clerks to perform their work and the Courts are taxed to their limit, and we have not cited one tenth of the violators.

Are Nat Discouraged." "We are not to be discouraged but will keep driving at this regulation until it is understood and respected. We do not want to cite drivers.

The meeting haa been called by Councilman C. E.

Many suggestions for safety zones in the residential and suburban districts of Cincinnati and at railroad crossings were made yesterday at a luncheon of the Board of Control of the Safety Council, held in the Chamber of Commerce. One of these was that the letters S. Z.

be placed in white on the pavement about 100 feet from the safety zone as a warning. Another provided for the painting of three white lines on the pavement 300 feet from railroad crossings. A plan for the calling of a "Safe Drivers" convention, to which the Mayors of cities and towns within a radius of SO miles of Cincinnati shall be invited, was approved. The object of this meeting is to acquaint motorists with traffic regulations in Cincinnati and to provide for the organization of Safe Drivers' clubs in other cities. Further arterial stops will not be ordered in the downtown districts.

At one time during the hearing yesterday, the Court dismissed the jury from the room and admonished counsel on both sides for the uncomplimentary remarks they had made.
