In regard to the "traffic on town 6 streets Chief King said that he was. very much surprised when he learned t that the speed limit in towns was 3 raised to 20 miles an hour under the` 3 U.F.O.

They used to - say they would not be able to take 3 butter and eggs into town with safety ] E any more for fear of auto accidents. : I Now, however, he was glad -to know, : nearly every farmer owns a car. ` Suggests 12 Miles For Towns Chief King thought the present 1 urban limit of 20 miles an hour was 1 excessive. The present limit is too . fast, he declared. If the limit was ~ 1 down to 12 miles an hour in towns 5 drivers would be moreicareful. They. t would have to be. And there would be fewer accidents.
