MOVE MONUMENT FOR PARKING ROOM? NO But Indianapolis Residents Do Agree That Something Must Be Done to Relieve Downtown Congestion.
Indianapolis citizens do not agree that the Soldiers’ and Sailors’ Monument should be moved to make room for parking space for autos, as facetiously suggested by one. But they do agree that something must be done to relieve downtown congestion. “Shorter cars would be my solution,’’ says Harry E. Goldstein of Goldstein’s department store. “I feel sure that Legislature will in time enact laws compelling manufacturers to turn out shorter cars. Streamlike lines may make for beauty, but they help to congest parking. Shortor cars would relieve the situation.” ' Better Parking Laws “Unification of parking laws,” suggests Don Herr of the Don Herr Cab

Company. “In cities where the conditions are similar, it should be quite possible to work out unified parking laws, which would help wonderfully. Coming in contact with thousands of tourists every year, I hear a great deal from them regarding parking laws of other cities. “In Los Angeles, the parking laws are especially admirable, and in spite of its size, there seems to be no complaint of congested parking conditions. Cleveland, Ohio, is another city which has eliminated bad parking conditions by the excellence of its traffic regulations, so it can be done." James Tretton, supernitendent of the street railway company would prohibit parking in the mile square at rush hours. “Streets are not

garages,” he observed, “and the tendency to make them such congests fearfully. If in the mile square, there was no parking say, from 6 to 8 a. m. and 4 to 6.30 p. in., a great improvement in the traffic situation would take place.” Would Use Plaza. Wallace Lee, of the Indianapolis Heat and Light Company, believes that some plan could be worked out whereby the new plaza could relieve the situation. “Ifbeauty of architecture were in no way interfered with," he suggests, "why couldn’t some ramp arrangement be installed that would make for underground parking? I feel sure that those who gave their lives, and whose memory the plaza commemorates, would commend, If they could know of it, a plan which would make the plaza of service to others.” “Spreading the business district of the city over a wider area would be my solution,” Clarence N. Warren, vice president of Hayes Brothers, Inc., says. “Everybody has tried to get on Washington St. The result has been a concentration of business into a little area, which has

much to do with the extreme car Shorter Limit “Allowing people to park only fifteen minutes at a time would help,” asserts Blaine McGrath, president of the Indianapolis Advertising Club. “This thing of fitting cars into neat rows along the streets for hours at a time is responsible for much of the congestion. Fifteen-nfinute parking would help wonderfully." More streets devoted to one-way traffic Is a solution advanced by many, and removing street car lines from Washington St. from about Alabama St. to Capitol Ave. is another popular suggestion “Some such plan would not work any real hardship,” commented M. H. O’Hair, druggist, at St. Clair and N. Pennsylvania Sts., and would certainly relieve/the parking congestion.”
