Third Oi Indiana's Cities Have Meters Most Find Parking Meters Are Success Indianapolis. Aw. 11—(DPI — Nearly one-third ot Indiana's cities today raked in a harvest of pennies and nickels from a record crop of parkins meters popping up all over the state. More than 30 communities installed the meters in an effort to solve the parking problem, a bugaboo which has caused city councils and town boards alike many hours of worry. A number ot other cities are -onsldertng installation of meters in their crowded shopping sections. The majority ot the cities with meters find the park-for-pay plan a success. Officials said the meters eliminated “all day” packers and kept open spaces for visitors and shoppers. . They also pointed to the Income which rolled Into city coffers In 1947. when only a doxen places had them in operation, the meters produced 1217.C37.78. according to a state Chamber of Commerce survey. Rut as more and more communities Installed the meters, state officials and perking experts added a word of caution. The meters, they said, are not the complete solution to the annoying parking problem. And there is danger of installing too many parking meters, in areas where they are not needed. Roy Johns, secretary of the Associated Merchants of Indiana, an agency which considers parking the No. 1 problem facing merchants of the state's smaller cities, said meters have proved "quite successful.” He said they effectively limit parking on streets in business sections. enabling fanners and others to find ample parking space near stores. But he said municipal parking lots to handle "ail-day” parking were badly needed to supplement the work of parking meters. "Too many cities think they'll solve their parking woes and make money with meters." he said. “But they're not designed to raise revenue and they don’t solve the prob- ' lem entirely." ' 'Ntarfy a doxen parking meter firm* are promoting their wares in the state. Usually they install the meters, then take a pen entage of receipts until they are paid for. Opponents of the meter plan say the expense of hiring a policeman to check the meters offsets | the income. They say it's impossible to catch every automobile | left on the street longer than the j time paid for by hs owner. •Even if they aren't checked | strictly." said Johns, "they still keep people from leaving their cars on the street for long periods of time." A penny in most cities entitles the motorist to IS minutes parking time with the rates scaled upward to 10 cents for two hours. Several of the larger cities are | using meters. They Include Evansville. Lafayette, and Terre I Haute. Some of the latest addi- , tions Included Noblesville, Frank- , lin. Goshen and Portland. Morris Carter, assistant dirac- i tor of the Indiana traffic safety i commission, said the state highway commission conducted surveys for cities to determine the need, if any. for meters in their shopping areas. He said the number of cities using meters had doubled In the last six months Suffers Injured Leg As Tractor Upsets Berne. Aug 12 — Winston I-eh-man.

IU YUO.OVI 111 4SFTS. - Sr t B 11 ] I Lv7Z We think that there are certain principles a grocer must observe if he expects to have the confidence and patronage of the community in which he operates. . y We think also that the millions of housewives, who have to s|»end such a large part of the family > income on food, want to feel that the grocers they patronize live up to these principles. It can z make a lot of difference in the quality and the cost of the food. Here, in brief, are some of the thing* A&P tries to live up to at all times, and if you ever find us falling short of these principles in any way we’d feel you were doing us a favor if you’d tell us about it. We don’t think that honest intentions arc enough . . . we believe we owe you a system that makes them come true. • • According to our way of figuring, tliere ere sixteen ounces to the ' A pound with no "ifs,” “and’*,” or ‘‘lml’s.’’ Our scales are in plain sight where you can _ w Ji. ** r •he dials, and we have them periodically checked for accuracy. Certain food* are \\ subject to "shrinkage" in weight even after short periods in or on their way Io lhe store. ( \ *h ,u ld he our worry and not yours. When we weigh food up in advance for the convenience of self-service, we know what this shrinkage will l>e and we add enough to ’ " take care of it. A pound of food must weigh sixteen ounces when you get it.. . not just - when we weigh it up. I CoAAEGT 'PwasS ess plainly marked. Again we say honest intention* on our part arent enough. We must also he accurate and we owe it to you to have a system that J . guard* against slip* and error*. A4P prices are plainly marked on lhe good, or on the shelve* and case* or both. A4P cashier* are thoroughly trained to check your puriha*e» ' quickly and accurately and give you a slip or »a|c» ticket with every purchase ilenuzed. I • • y ou s hould be able to read your grocer’* advertising with c,,n f , den<c that the merchandise and prices are correctly represented in keeping > • ) k *'*b *** spirit at well as the law of honest merchandising. If you see broccoli or letture r . Zz <‘ta M c>W ** ?e ® r barnburner or porterhouse steak listed in an AhP ad at such-and >u<h a v \\\ price—that means it’s the price of AhP's beu broccoli or lettuce or cabbage or ham- \\ \\\ \\ burger or porterhouse steak. If, in the case of a product that we carry in more than one grade or sixe, (like potato**, for instance), we advertise the price, we advertise the grade also so you’ll know what you re buying and what you should pay. We advertise to iu/orm you—not to fool you •n* o coming into our stores, and you won’t go awty disappointed. — ■ ass h’s not enough for your grocer Io buy good food for hi* you re *° R** wr mOT ’*y’» worth he must keep it good until you come for it.
