This ordinance, one of the most comprehensive and far reaching civic measures ever laid before any aldermanic body, is the result of year's work by the street traffic com- mittee of the association which has been conducting an intensive scientific | study of the traffic problem in Chicago | and adjacent suburban area. Inasmuch as the questions of parking | in business districts, control lights, traffic police, pedestrian control and many other features covered in survey just completed for Chicago are being encountered in many suburban | communities as well as in the large cities, Chicago traffic students expect that the towns and cities in the Chi- cago automotive area will show siderable interest in this big survey and the ordinance recommended to relieve the congestion problem. The ordinance is the work of seventy-eight men and agencies interested in street | use in Chicago and is based on the survey conducted by Miller McClin- | tock, the director of the Albert Russel Erskine bureau for traffic research, who handled the technical work of the Chicago survey.
