He stated that there are two advertising signs now obstructing the full view of this corner and recommends their removal. -He suggested the use of serri-actuated signals on a 506 -participation basis. He believes the corner to be adequately lighted, and that the situation will not be improved by reducing the,speed limit, or by t"_oe use of automatic stop -and -go signals, or by a large "Entering Crystal" sign. It is their experience that in those rmznicipalities where the large sign is in use it has encouraged excessive spef,d. for the reason that the driver be- lieves that the sign is being used in lieu of active patrol. He said, in parting that he could be very agreeable to meeting with us to discuss this matter further whenever we wished. txt . William Schindler and ?.:r.
