~ ‘About Your Auto and How _ To Drive It and Keep It < isint Advice How to Keep Automobiles Running Smoothly " and the Best Way to Remedy Machine Troublee— Traffic Suggestions and Pleasure Routes for Evening World Readers. By GEORGE H. ROBERTSON. HERE {s being tried at present in one or two large cities a new sys tem of regulating traffic, which is being closely watched by traffic officials here. This scheme consists of semaphore signals placed at the four eldes of the crossing equare with an officer in charge who is stationed in a booth on the side walk. According to reports the ex- periment has not been very euccess- ful. While the semaphore signals are clearly visible to drivers there is no actual assistance given instructing them when, and when not, to cross. Of couree, with such a system the whistle has been abolished. I do not delieve that any traffic arrangement will prove efficient without an officer | Hal on the spot directing it, using his whistle in connection with other - nals. The blowing of the whistle warns the drivers in the rear of the held-up GEO.H. ROBERTSON. line when to be ready to move. With- @ut this warning quite a little time would ensue before all the traffic could proceed. Pedestrians also recognise the whistle and regulate their crossing accordingly. There is an arrangement at the southeast corner of Madison Avenue and Thirty-fourth Street which is of benefit to traffic when in the act of turning. This corner has been cut in such a way as to give a motor car when turning here a longer radius to wheel in. Every corner on Fifth Avenue in the conjested district should be shaped in the same way. Be- cause of the extreme length of automobiles these days a longer turning Tadius is necessary. Traffic is frequently held up for several minutes when these long motor care attempt to turn at cramped corners. Re- shaping the corners would be inexpensive, would not endanger pedestrians and would greatly facilitate the duties of the traffic policemen. ANSWERS TO LETTERS.
