The Traffic Engineer stated that investigation is made of all traf- <br /> fic accidents with a view to installing preventive measures, and that the reports <br /> of several of the recent accidents revealed that they were caused by failure to <br /> yield the right-of-way either to a pedestrian or to another vehicle. <br /> 2 Mayor Cone then asked if there had been anything done in relation to the noise <br /> made by Honda motor bikes in view of the anti-noise ordinance. The City Manager ex- <br /> plained that the City had recently purchased a noise meter, but the device had not <br /> been used by the Police Department as yet in traffic enforcement. However, at the <br /> present time, members of the Police Department are being instructed in the machine's <br /> use. <br /> 3 Councilman Purdy inquired whether anything further had been done in relation to <br /> telephone solicitation, and was advised by the City Manager that a report would be <br /> made in the very near future. <br /> 4 The City Manager read a letter, addressed to Mayor Cone, from Mayor Lee of <br /> Chinju, Korea, in which Mayor Lee thanked Mr. Cone and the people of the City of <br /> Eugene for his wonderful reception and the hospitality shown him on his visit to <br /> Eugen e.
