Police Connhissiol to Enforce Measure at King and Simcoe St. Twin Be Put Tate Effect as Soon as Signs Can Be Se- cured--Only Right Turns Will Be Permitted WILL ENFORCE "ALL BY-LAWS Thirty:minute Parking Limit to Apply in Business Sec: tion on Simcoe and King Streets from William to Bruce and Church to Mary Street The leit hand turn at King and Simcoe streets will be abolished as soon as signs may be procured and erected to this effect it was decided at the regular meeting of the Police Commission, Orders have been plac- ed for these "No Left Turn" signs and they will be placed at the main corner immediately upon arrival. It was further decided that traffic laws of this city will be strictly enforced, and any violations will be dealt with without leniency, Thirty minute parking in the business section of the city between Mary and Church streets on King, and Bruce and William streets on Simcoe will be enforced to the min- ute, no allowance over the time limit set to be permitted. This mo- tion is probably due to the fact that an increased traffic problem has faced the commission during the past month or so and brought about by the tourist season opening. It will furthermore be prohibited to park on both sides of Prince be- tween Bond and King streets, on Ontario hetween Bond and King and on Charles street, These traffic regulations have been discussed in the commission for some time, and the scttlement reach- ed will considerably improve matters, Two traffic officers are now on duty, whose duty it will be to see that the regulations are not disregarded, The secretary was instructed to write the city council requesting them to provide a municipal park- ing space to relieve the congestion of traffic which is becoming more and more apparent every day. Chief of Police O. D, Friend was instructed to erect six signs on Sim- coe street between Cedardale and the Lake, three being planted on each side of the road with speed rate announced thereon. The words in- scribed on the signs will be "City of Oshawa, Speed 20 miles" There are still some residents of this city who are under the impression that the road leading to the Lake, past Cedardale, is county property. It is rather misleading with the absence of signs, but with the erection of the signs in the near future, no excuse may be given for any speeder break- ing the traffic by-laws. A communication from Robert Fraser of the Jubilee Pavilion re- questing the right to erect signs on the way to the Lake pointing out the direction and guiding the tour- ists to the park was received. Upon a motion, Mr. Fraser will be written, and referred to the city council, who have the right to pass on such communications. The problem of parking cars at Queen and Athol streets, which hap- pen to be city property at this sec- tion was brought up before the com- mission and entailed considerable discussion. The cars which are parked here are of a dilapidated con- dition and prove a sore sight for anyone in the neighborhood. The Chief of Police stated that he had served a notice upon the responsible parties setting a time limit for the removal of the debris from the city property within seven days. The time limit has expired now, it was stated. Several communications were re- ceived in regard to erecting "no parking" signs on private property, ¢| policies specifically included suicide NEW YORK GREETS MISS EARHART First Woman to Fly the At. lantic is Given Noisy Welcome (By Canadian Press) New York, July 6--Miss Amelia Rarhart, first woman to fly across the Atlantic stepped back on Ameri- can soil soon after ten o'clock to- day, after the return journey from Europe by boat, to receive a noisy welcome from admiring crowds and official congratulations at the city hall.
