Many matters bearing directly upon
the safety and welfare of citizens of
Washington have been brought to the
attention of the Street Safety Associa-
ton besides matters of street safety
Because Of the limited scope of the
body, however. and the limits set by it's
constitution. 1t has been impossible to
take up these matters. The PROPOSE
ton arose, therefore, to change from
only a. street safety" to general
safety first organization, with the
work now being done by the Street
Safety Association being handled by
one OF the branches or bureaus of the
proposed organization.
It was decided to request the Com
all schools giving adequate warning
at these points. A number of schools
are not provided with Fairgrounds,
and the youngsters often run into the
street in their play, even though they
are warned against doing so by their
teachers. In some places, particularly
the Webster School. at 10th and H
streets northwest. where the traffic is
particularly heavy, some members of
the street safety organization thought
that it was a source of wonder that no
serious accidents had occurred.
