BOULEVARD STREET PLAN TO BE TRIED (Continued from First Page) of the system at Washington and Broad streets and said the light was .& neceasity and had done much to make the intersection safer for mo- /torists and pedestrians. Chairman Bannan said the demand for protec- ~77H0n at that corner was #0 insistent «a-3bat the police commissioners were " ‘practically compelled to inaisll the F Ught. Favors Traffic Police Outside Conter ; Councliman Landwehr thought + traffic lights the proper arrangement wbout the center of the city, where tramic is W, Rl pllicemen could han e situation with bet- ter results at points where trafiic was net Nea Chairman Bannan replied that the department was without funds to increase the per- { bonnel to the point where traffic of- could be stationed at all the points, but the situation at H o¢rners which Councilman Land- * Wehr mentioned will be remedied ; Shertly by allowing right turns on the red light, as is done at many : @ther corners about the city. The Iack of funds for proper signs has 3 delayed the use of this system, the | chairman said. Boulevard System The discussion about traffic con- Ultions arose during the considera- tion of the board’'s recom- mendation t! boulevard sys- ¥ tem of traffic be installed on South | ¢ Main, West Main, Stanley and Myrtie { ! streeta. The common council at the | 5 last meeting added Hart street to 7 this list. Chairman Bannan said the | { approximate cost of uigns to e | placed at the intersectiohs of streets i deading into the main thoroughfares would be $50 per corner. | Councilman W. D. Boyle of ‘he | =#ixth ward predicted the failure of | | the boulevard plan because iae | i ptreets of New Dritain are too nar- * row for it. He agreed that it was a . &ood system on wide thoroughfarcs. | . Chairman Bannan explained that the | ¢ boulevard system obliges drivers en- | ; fering main thoroughfares from side 3 treets to come to a full stop, pro- i teeding only when conditions on the ¢ boulevard sticet permit. The sys- ; tem, however, does not relieve the + @rivers on the main streets from the + @uty of exercising care, § Vote to Give System Trial 1 Atter a discussion of trafic lights, i Intersections snd other matters pi1- ¥ taining to the regulation of traffic, the committce voted to authorize the 4 pglice board to make u trial of the | ulsvard plan on West Main street for six months, also on other streets | g4during the same period, as the board + ®ees fit. If the plan works out suc- i comtully, ommend the proper make it effective. Chairman Bannan assured eommittee that the police commis- ®loners were at all times willing to receive suggestions and criticisms, in order that traffic may be kept mov- lag rapidly and with safety in all parts of the city. He noticed that fhe red light at Elm and llast Main Streets held up traffic longer than it #hould do. and he said he would have it attended to at once.

' tions from anyone, he said, and he appreciated the cooperation of the council members, A proposed ordinance to regulate the dry cleaning and dyeing estao- lishments about the city was offersd by Building Inspector A. N. Ruther- ford, Second Deputy Fire Chief M. T. Souney and Assistant Corporation Counsel M. H. Camp, who had been asked by the previous ordinance committee to do so. The proposed erdinance would legislate four or five establishments out of business unless alterations were made at cou- | siderable expense. Delay Regulating Cleaning Plants Ex-Counciiman Alexander J. Ol- son, owner of a building on Lin- coln street near West Main strect where a dry cleaning place is sit- uated, was given a hearing and said that although complaints had been made to the police and building de- partments, none of the eight fan- ilies who live in his property near the establishment have . complained to him, so he doubted that the al- leged nuisance was as great as hus been charged. The committee voted to consider the proposed ordinance for a month and eventually a hearing will be given to proprietors of the estab- lishments coming under its regula- tions. The members felt it advie- able to be careful about adopting stringent regulations affecting the occupancy of business buildings.
