The traffie slowdown hits both classes, those whe drive their own cars and the multitude that relies on mass transportation. Cities and suburban areas con- stantly grapple with the problem in what often looks like « hope- less fight—because each trick they try, in routings or superhighways, is quickly trumped by the flood and oriorities for buses on expressways. Car drivers, naturally, have the oppo- site idea: It’s the buses that snarl up traffic and slow down progress, In many big cities, during the busy hours of the day, motor traf- fie moves through the streets at a flower pace than horse-drawn streetcars did. Horse-and-bu traffie averaged nine mile: an hour in rush periods in the cities, traffic experts say. Motor traffic now averages five miles an hour, and less in some places. Take one well known street— 42nd street in New York City. Tr officials say their vehicles crossed the island from East River to the Hudson in nine minutes on the average, before World V'ar I Now the best time is 13 minutes, and at peak rush hours it takes 20 to 24 minutes. On your way to work, or home, that loss of 11 to 13 minutes each way can count up during the week. The Bureau of Publie Roads re- ports auto registrations as nearly 43 million, a gain of 6.3 per cent last year, and 11 million more than before the war. Bus and truck reg- istrations top nine millien, a gain of 5.9 per cent in a year. The 8 almost 44 billion gallons of gaso- line were sold last year, a gain PHONE: Citizen Office, 1938 FOUR BELIEVED | DEAN OF K.W.

In| some cities there is a car for every three persons. Add all this up and you have—traffic jams Many cities are tackling the problem by building expressways from the suburbs into the cities— | ig in the view of | mass transportation compa- nies. | “Downtown streets of American | cities are not large enough to ac- | commodate the present flow of traffie in an efficient manner,” says Harley L. Swift, president of | the American Transit Association. “If new expressways, freeways | id speedways are built into the hearts of cities for exclusive use of private automobiles, the result- | ing traffic jams will create an even | greater loss of time and money | plus growing accident hazards.” The idea his association will plug at its Central Eastern regional | conference next week in Philadel- | phia is this: “Buses and street-| cars Mnust be given some form of on these new high-speed ." Swift contends that 60 per cent of daily workers rely upon public transportation.
