On CRYSTAL Sanders Drug Store Authorized Alton Dealer Broadway and Market Vt PAGE FIVE Painted Lines to Guide AutoParking asPlanned For Newly Paved Square Area Designed to Avoid Blockades Give Moat Stalls Rain early today gave an apparent set-back to the plans of Ed Evans, street foreman, to proceed with the painting of automobile parking stalls in the newly completed Douglas square pavement. The pavement within the city square has not yet been opened to general use, and, prior to such opening, Evans had hoped to get the painting of all traffic control lines completed.

He has been engaged for two days with a street crew in pouring pitch into the Joints of the pavement, a feature of the paving project not included in the general contract, and on completion of this Job, proposed to turn to the painting program. Few Minor Changes Under the plans drawn for the paving of the square, engineers took into the first consideration that the square would be an important parking place. The paving plans were so drawn as to provide space for parking the maximum possible number of automobiles while at the same time reserving. aisles to assure easy access to the parking stalls. Further the plans provided for a bus-stop and "turn around" for buses.

In painting the parking lines, Foreman Evans said today, the original plans of the engineers are to be closely followed, but that there may be a few minor changes to meet conditions that have come up since the scheme of paving was originally set up three years ago. The general idea of as many parking stalls as possible without allowing any situation where parked cars may be blocked in will be followed, Evans explained. Members of the city finance committee Monday evening gave passing throught to traffic problems that will come with the full opening of the West End paving, but it was suggested by Mayor Butler that it may be best policy to let some of these problems actually materialize before a final solution is sought. The most practical solutions of some of the traffic conditions to be met, he urged, will be most satisfactorily worked out after full traffic movement through the newly paved district has been restored, and when it may be actually seen how the increased use of Piasa street and the wider lanes for state traffic work in actual practice. Alderman Winkler asked for the painting of parking stalls at the Cathedral frontage on State street, and it was said this would be undertaken as soon as the painting work, scheduled to start today on the Douglas square and adjacent streets on the new paving route is completed.

Alderman Yager urged pointing of cross walks in the business area will be found useful as an aid for pedestrians.
