18TH AND H CAR STOPS
ASKED TOBE RESTORED
Bankers, Real Estate Men and Mer-
chants Petition Utilities
Commission.

Bankers, real estate men and mer-
chants in the vicinity of 18th and H
streets northwest have applied to the
Public Utilities Commission for res
toration of the car stops at that cor
ner for both east and west bound cars
| of the Washington Railway and Elec-
trio Company.
At present cars going in both direc-
| tons stop on the west side of 14th
and II streets. The next stops are at
Vermont avenue. where westbound
cars use the east side and eastbound
| cars the west side.
| Advocates of stops at 18th street
| point tOs the existence of large office
buildings on three corners and hotel
| on the fourth corner.
If the petition is granted the COM
| mission probably would have to re-
] tain the Vermont avenue stops for the
benefit of the hundreds of employees
in the War Risk building. The appli-
"The undersigned respectfully re-
quest that both the east and west
stops at 18th and H streets northwest
of the cars of the Washington Rail-
way and Electric Company be restored
as formerly established.
I'VE ask this in the interest of the
who. having business in this impor-
tant center. are seriously fNconveni-
enced by the stops as they at present
exist"
The petition is signed by the follow
ing: Edward ]. Stellwagen, Charles

Decision to back up officeholders and
m merchants in the Immediate neighbor-
hood of 18th and H streets in their
campaign to have cars o,J the WASH
ington Railway and Electric Company
stop at that corner wa5 seached to-
day by officials of th6 Washington
city post Office.
Recent acquisition lot the central
postal station, located in the Southern
building. makes officials of the post
office feel that the skip" of that par
ticular corner-by the street cars is
unfortunate.
