"JAY-WALKER" RULES
MADE IN WASHINGTON

Traffic regulations just decreed by the
commissioners OF the District Of Colum-
bla should be studied by politicians,
pleasure seekers. patriots and others who
are planning to visit Washington.
The new rules are In line with those
adopted some time ago by several west
ern cities and are designed to suppress
the so-called 'jay-walker." These new
rules regulate the pedestrian. and #
similar measures were enforced In Salt
Lake and other cities it would tend to
minimize the danger attendant on raf
flc.
PEDESTRIANS in Washington are now
forbidden to cross q street except at
corner, to walk In the street except at
a corner, or TO cross the street dlasonally.
"The roadbeds Of highways and
streets" say the new rules, ARE pri-
marily intended for vehicles." and while
drivers 1naust exercise all possible care"
pedestrians must not '+needlessly inter
fere with tho passage Of vehicles or
street cars To stop or stand on Cross
walks or Sidewalks In such a manner as
to 1obstruct thsir free use by others is
prohibited.
It requires the enforcement Of rigid
rules TO protect the "jay-walker" from
his self-made peril.

With view of opening the Midland

suggested that automobilists of both
states meet at Grand Junction. Colo
Just as soon as work on the Utah end OF

Jr., of the Denver chamber of commerce
IN letter addressed to the secretary
of the Automobile Club of Utah, the
date. of the celebration being left open
until the trail is completed

rado end Of the trail is now in shape
and that he Is planning n reliability or

Junction IN the early summer, and asks
runs could meet at Grand Junction and

cate the opening of an automobile route
between Colorado and Utnh. It is be.
liered that the Midland trail officials
will take care of the Grand Junction
end of the arrangement and see that
the visiting automobilists have the time
of their lives.
When seen yesterday. President B. f.
Redman of the Automobile Club of
Utah, said it was not only possible but
entirely feasible, to organize q run
from Salt Lake to Grand Junction as
soon as the trail is in passable shape
"We could leave Salt Lake with two
dozen cars said Mr.. Redman, "and
pick up more cars In every town be-
tween Salt Lake and Grand Junction.
What is more, we Will go into Grand

them we are interested in this trail
Just as soon as we can get line on
when the trail Will be opened we will
take the matter up and decide upon

The work done by the organizers of
the Midland trail has attracted national
attention and trip over the new route
by the interested automobilists would
Immediately show that the trail was
open for travel. The Midland trail is
today the best advertised route across
the continent, but it is also generally
known that the trail is not as vet ready
for travel. W. H. Ellison, president of
