Additional traffic regulations have been proposed by the Gulfport Chamber of Commerce as a measure of safety to provide for the heavy automobile travel expected this spring and summer as a result of the: completion of the bridges between the Gulf Coast to New Orleans, to the westward, and the Coast and Mobile, to the eastward.'
Sunday motor traffic for the last few weeks	has demonstrated to	city
and county	officials	that	the volume
of summer holiday and Sunday traffic will exceed all previous estimates, and may require a doubling of highway area along the Harrison county beach front.
Bay St. Louis city commissioners are equal to the occasion and already have adopted an ordinance regulating traffic,	the like	of	which	has
never been	created for the	city.
There are many streets designated as ?Right of Way? thoroughfares for motorists and the matter has been winked mil wit! 1 h thought n I detail. Mayor Traub and Commissioners Egloff and Ladner have given the matter much attention.
This ordinance will be issued in book form and ready for delivery in time for May 1st, date of effect.
