Why do biycycle tires have a tread on part of the sides?
Turning on a bicycle is different than in a car. When you turn on a bicycle you lean the entire bike to the side. This causes the sides of the tires to contact the pavement. The tread on the sides of the tires is there for this exact reason. Without it, you would probably skid out when you try to turn.
Why would new tires whistle?
Different tread patterns make completely different sounds against the pavement. People notice this most when getting a new set of tires. They are used to the sound of their old tires against the pavement, and only notice them when there is a change in the sound - like new tires.

What reduces traction?
Tire traction can be lessened by excessive speed, worn pavement surfaces, overinflated tires, tires with little remaining tread, hot days melting the pavement asphalt oil, or a heavy rain which can result in hydroplaning.
