Following is the first of these stories.) The most prized possessing of the American public the autemobile--has presented city planning wi.h one of its knottiest The problem is apparent residences and at places of business. It rears its head at shopping cent-: ers and in places of amusement and adds to the complexities of the industrial district.

Many fant-; ilies now begin to find two cars: necessary to their mode of life: and businesses maintain anything: from a small delivery vehicle to a whole fleet of trucks. Perhaps the most encouraging development in a long time from.

the planner's point of view is the. apparent conclusion by automobile manufacturers in keeping with the views of a majorily of zens that the maximum width; and length necessary for tive excelience has been reached. Support of this conclusion is evidenced by the growing popularity of the small car; particularly favored in urban areas due to its ease of handling and parking. However the parking space allotted, per car still must be sufficient fit the largest car. Parking meters are not a solution in this problem: but are only helpful tools.

revered mostly as revenue producers. The problem can be attacked from two directions: Through control of on-street parking and through development of off-street parking and loading facilities. some cases it is necessary to prohibit parking entirely in order that traffic may move freely. The use of rush hour controls has been found to have considerable good effect: this bans parking on specific streets during hours of peak traffic load. al alternatives are prohibiting parking on alternate sides of street.

The latter is not only help. ful in moving more traffic but enables the town to accomplish street cleaning when the alternate side is being used. Off-street parking needs vary different parts of Taos. The Plaza area requires special facilities the day-long worker the regular shopper sales and service nel and yet must retain access for emergency purposes. Added the normal use seasonally there a large influx of tourists bent shopping or just curious who linger fascinated by the charm and toric aspects of the square.

Therefore fore provision must also be made the tourist along with careful attention to the safety and venience of the residents. Failure to do so will act against the interests of the town nesses. Where too many snarls and hazards exist traffic is apt to pass on by to go to towns where adequate planning subsequent development has sidered the tourist's needs. haps one of the most notably cessful experiments is the city block area Rockefeller er in the heart of New York All parking within the area and service is from the rear or ments of the Center.

Streets are needed primarily for movement of traffic but those areas with buildings extending out. the street line and with walls of building adjoining the next leave no space for either parking: the proper movement of In this situation the town sufconsiderably more than mere-; the inconvenience of the motor. there is the actual loss of busi-: ness as well.

Likewise the town often forced to improve several: olher streets to carry traffic that: should be allowed to flow unimpeded along the main streets. Diverting traffic to other streets will affect values in residential areas and often create hazards near; schools churches or recreational places. Even when other streets so used to relieve a area there still is usually not sufcongested ficient parking space nor loading areas where deliveries can be made conveniently in the downtown district, At the present time off-street parking facilities in Taos are ited in the business district and parking even in the off-season congested and difficult. Perhaps as presently established firms enlarge and the downtown district: grows within a certain radius of the plaza some property owners may provide off-street parking finding that space now occupied by buildings of low income may used produce greater revenue when as parking facilities.

The letter, presented at the last meeting of the council, posed a question that must be considered carefully before such an ordinance ican be passed and upheld, officials said.

"The imporant question is, what is obscene literature and what is not?" councilman Kenneth Morris! said. "In my drug store I have Gonzales years. From left to right: Joe Sanchez: Paul Franke and Paul Franke city planners; Ted Cabot, Harold Johnson of the city planning board; Mrs. Allan Reed representing the ber of Commerce planning committee. removed magazines from the stands that are considered to be the best published in the country because I was requested to do so.

I've tried to cooperate in every way and yet what one man finds offensive another passes. Readers Digest, Life and even women's magazines have carried banners or pictures that some call obscene and if I and others like me try to meet every request we won't have a magazine to sell." Morris was backed up by the rest of the council and it was decided that what is "indecent" and what isn't is a technical problem and the letter in question was too general. The council voted that a more detailed method to rid the town to ovscene literature would have to be presented the type of scene material have to be periodicals printing, so-called obmade more specific. Muddy Street Brings Protest Of Residents Montoya Street residents finally decided they'd had just about enough last week and presented themselves as a body at the City Council meeting to protest the condition of their road-or what had jonce been a road.

Mrs. Pete Duran said that families had not been able to get out of their houses during the past few weeks and that children could not even get out 10 school. Stressing the need of something being done immediately it was pointed out that it had taken one elderly couple three hours to turn from the movie to their home on Monoya. Mrs. Duran also called atten-1 tion to the bad lighting on the street and said that although they did have one light it had been placed in the one spot that did no one any good.

"It's a fine light." she said, "as a matter of fact it's a perfectly light. It's just that it's in the wrong place." Mrs. Duran further stressed the predicament of Montoya Street residents by saying. "We've been trying to get that place fixed for years but it would seem it's hopeless. One mayor even suggested that if we ever planned on getting out of there.
