WILL URGE A CHANGE
POLICE CHIEF OPPOSED TO
"TWo-STREET" REGULATION.

Owing to the congested condition OF
several of the public thoroughfares of the
city Maj. Sylvester has decided to recon-
mend to the District Commissioners that
Pennsylvania and New York aveues,
each of which is now regarded as two
separate streets for purposes of traffic,
be considered one each.
The superintendent of police explained
today that the regulations now require
vehicles to approach the curbs of side
walk with the right wheel. but that ow-
ing to the large amount of traffic on the
thoroughfares mentioned it is almost
impossible TO enforce the law. He added
that Washington is "left-handed city"
as almost all of the traffic along the bust
ness thoroughfareS comes from the mort H.
west section of the city. If the drivers
of vehicles abide by the regulations they
must move down one side of the street
and make a complete turn before they
can place the right wheei toward the
north curb. He said further that he has
given the matter considerable attention
and is of the opinion that the change
will be of great benefit to the drivers
of vehicles
