Laws Are Enforced, Boetcher Claims In Comment.

Superior Court Judge E. Weir today called on Mayor Boetcher and Chief Morrissey to toward cutting down traffic deaths. The appeal name of the County's 87th victim, the City's 53d, was to the toll of those who have died so far this year. In letters addressed City officials, church various civic organizations, Weir said: “The phantom faces of the people killed in Marion County and the living faces of the many more who will die in the near future appeal for official action.” Providence Record Cited Judge Weir cited in his letter the record made in Providence, R.

At present, no state sets highway speed limits under 40 miles an hour Indiana has no highway speed regulations except in certain zoned areas Mayor BRoetcher the letter as follows: The Indianapolis traffic record shows a lower accident rate so far this vear as compared to previous years

“Commendable,” Mayor Says

“The record this vear, I believe, is commendable. as compared to previous years. With the increase in the motorcvcele force, we have been able to accomplish considerable in reducing traffic violations. “I think the proper persons to comment on the letter are the Safetv Board president and Chief Morrissey. However, as far as I know, the speed laws are being enforced in this City.” Chief Morrissey commented: “Our enforcement record speaks for itself. We bring in speeders where we find them. Our theory is to place motorcycle men out on the open streets in full view of the motorists. Bv doing this, we can prevent speeding. If the motorcycle men were to hide and ‘lay in’ on side streets in an effort to catch the speeders, three times as many arrests could be made. “But by patroling the streets and keeping the men in sight, we are preventing 10 speeding violations to the arrest of one by the method. We are handicapped by the lack of motorcvele men.”

‘Encouraging,’ Dammeyer Says

Theodore H. Dammever, Safety Board president, said: The speed laws in this City are, to my knowledge. being enforced to the hast of the ability of Chief Morwith the limited number motorevele officers. With only 32 motorcycle officers in the City now, our record for reduction in traffic violations here and in the auto death rate is encouraging The City long has sought additional motorcycle police. The motorcvcles are available, but it is difficult to obtain officers to ride them. The assignment is considered the most dangerous on the police force. “It also should be pointed out, when considering the traffic record here, that Indianapolis has more automobiles for its size than any other city in the ccuntry.” Municipal Judge Charies Karabell said: “The present speed limits are all right. Lower limits would congest | traffic. I think we have had a lot | of enforcement for the size police | force we have. We could use 200 more policemen. The courts have done their part.” Judge Karabell said that speeders paid or served out a total of $746 in fines and costs in his court in September, and declared that this is ample proof that the speeding laws are being enforced.
