The Hon. Mr. E. D. C. Wolfe, C.S.P., stated that he had received complaints to the effect that shop- fronts were obstructed by cars park- ed in the road. There was also a very serious Fire Brigade objection. Mr. Hodgyon said that if Mr. Wolfe now said that cars were not allowed to park there, no doubt he would issue notices to that effect, as the matter was one of import. ance to the Automobile Association. He submitted that a warning to
