Autoists Pay $100,000,000 Yearly to Park; to Study Cities’ Lack of F acilities

A.A. A.

Hoosier Motor Official alls Parking Meters ‘Another Tax.’

Motorists pay an annual parking bill of $100,000,000, Todd Stoops, Hoosier Motor Club secretary-man-ager, said today in claiming that American cities offer inadequate parking facilities “All ‘of this money,’ said, “is paid for what termed parking, that when shopping, or at work, or from home for any other reason. does not cover whatever are spent on private garages which annually take in while parking lots get $20,000,000 to $25,000,000. Between $3,000,000 and $5,000,000 goes parking meters. Parking Is Headache

Mr might parking

Stoops be

In spite of average motorist continues parking one of his motoring headaches. The majority of American cities fall short of providing anything like adequate ter=minal facilities and much of usefulness of the passenger car because of inability of the driver to find a place to leave it while he goes about his business. ‘Parking meters, in addition to levying another tax on the motorist, have failed to solve the problem The meter interests seem to feel that the person who must park his car all day is some sort of a criminal and feel that they have accomplished a noble purpose when they lay claim to having driven him off the street To solve the parking problem means taking care of the long-time as well as the short-time parker. The A. A. A. has appointed a national committee to study parking congestion and to suggest ways and means of relief.”
