VIGOROUS PROTEST
OF PARKING ORDER
Board of Trade Executive
Committee Criticises New
Traffic Regulation.

The new traffic regulation prohibit
ing parking in the congested sections
of this city was vigorously criticised
yesterday afternoon at a meeting Of
the executive committee Of the Wash
ington Board Of Trade.
Believing that the full power Of the
board should be invoked to fight against
enforcement of what was termed such
a drastic and unfair law, two com.
mttees. the public order and indus
trial interests. were instructed to at
tend the public hearing on the ques-
tion, to be held at the District build
ing Thursday.
Revolution Adopted.
The executive committee then adopted
resolution opposing the new regula-
ton with the stipulation that both COM
mittees attending the hearing should
be advised of its action to guide them
in attempts for modification Of the
ruling.
The resolution follows:
,, ut is the sense of the executive com.
mittee of the Washington Board OF
Trade that the proposed traffic regula-
uon, in reference to parking In the
downtown congested section. is too
| drastic, and that after full considera-
ton, it should be modified"
Members of the committee pointed
out the widespread evils which would
result from the enforcement of such
a law.
Mr.. Brandenburg's View.
DO you know" said E. c. Branden-
burg. member of the commit
tee and former president of the board,
that. if the new rule Is put into ef-
feet you can't even leave your car
in front of a drugstore down town
while you run in to get shaving
stick? Do you realize that you can't
even make a deposit in a bank II such
regulation is in force? The effect of
such a law will be that you will buy
your shaving stick uptown and
change banks to the same locality"
Eight new members were elected to
the board. They were Frank NJ.
