ONE-WAY TRAFFIC
RULES MODIFIED
Twelfth Street Will Become
Northbound and Thirteenth
Southbound Routes.

Important changes in the traffic
regulations recommended in the re-
port of the special traffic committee
were approved today by the board
Of District Commissioners. Except
for several notifications. the report,
which was submitted to the Commits
sIoners last Friday, was adopted in
it's entirety.
Extensions of 18th and 18th streets
as one-way streets from K street
to Massachusetts avenue and the re-
routing of traffic on these two streets
are the outstanding changes After
thirty days, when the order becomes
effective, 18th street from Pennsy1-
vania avenue to Massachusetts, ave-
nue. will be designated for north
bound traffic instead of southbound
Massachusetts, avenue to F street
will be southbound street instead
of northbound as at present. From
Pennsylvania avenue to F street the
one-way traffic regulation is abol-
ished.
These changes, the commissioners
believe, will relieve congestion on
14th street between Ii street and
Pennsylvania avenue.
The Commissioners also ordered
abolished the regulation designating
10th street for one-way traffic from
I to X street and Mcpherson Square
west. The one-way traffic rule,
however, will be maintained on 10th
street from Pennsylvania avenue to
I street.
The recommendation of the traffic
committee calling for the abolition
of one;way traffic on jackson place
between II street and Pennsylvania
avenue and on Madison place and
East Executive avenue were not APP
proved. Parking on that portion of
17th street lying between X and /
streets will be restricted to parallel
on both sides; on Connecticut avenue
between II and L streets parking will
be restricted to parallel on the west
side and angle on the east side: park
ing on Mcpherson Square will be linn
tied to parallel on both sides.
Where diagonal parking is permit
ted white lines will be painted on the
street designating space for each We
hicle, and all vehicles will be required
to park within these lines. This or
der was issued to conserve parking
space.

CROSSES IN PENNSYLVANIA
: Hundreds UP All Night in Youngs-
town to See Train.

YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio, August T.
The funeral train, bearing the body of
President Harding, arrived at Youngs
town at 9:25 this morning. and, with
out stopping, left Mr.. Harding's home
state, crossing the line into Pennsyl
Nania.
The train proceeded at two miles an
hour through the throngs of persons
gathered here, many of whom had
kept a patient vigil since l o'clock.
The train was about eight hours late
leaving Youngstown.
The first stop east of here will be
made at Newcastle Junction, a few
milse across the Pennsylvania line, to
change engines.
Throughout the night hundreds of
persons slept on the floor and benches
, of the railroad depot here or in the
grassy plots surrounding the station.
At every crossing automobiles We're
lined up with occupants doing fit
fully. Some estimates placed the num-
her of persons who watched the trains
slow passage through the city at
10000.
The same eagerness to do homage
to the departed leader was evident in
Ravenna, Niles and Warren, where
the train also was forced to a snail s
pace because of the great crowds.

Thousands ShO,U Grief as Train
Crosses Harding's Beloved Ohio

From Hicksville, the first Ohio
village encountered after the train
crossed the Indiana line shortly
after midnight, to Youngstown,
where 1t again departed from the
state and slipped on into Pennsyl-
vania, people gathered by the
thousands to stand bare-headed in
their grief until the last coach was
out of sight.
Many, basing their preparations
upon the original schedule, which
called for an arrival in Ohio early
in the evening, kept the vigil for
hours, refusing to leave until the
cortege arrived. Railroad stations
in the cities and towns were
jammed from early evening. in
some cases, until long after mid
night. while In the larger cities
surging crowds burst through po-
lice lines and forced through trains
to slow down as they passed on
ward. Almost every crossroads
had it's quota of automobiles, the
occupants of which snatched what
sleep they could in their cars while
they anxiously awaited the pass
ing of their dead President.
At no place was there q demon.
stration OF any sort, the crowds
contenting themselves with a brief
glance at the death bearing coach
and then turning homeward as if
for the first time coming to the
full realization of their loss.

COLUMBUS, Ohio, August T.
Ohio, where Warren G. Harding
wars born, grew into manhood,
started the political career which
carried him to the presidency. and
where next Friday he will be con-
signed to final rest, today found
its grief more poignant than at
any time since, almost unwarned,
its people heard the news of his
passing flashed from the far west.
For throughout the gray early
morning hours a funeral train was
vending its way slowly through
the state carrying its first citizen
back to Washington to receive
honors such as are accorded only
a President
Hours behind schedule because
of the great crowds which sought
to pay their last tribute as the
cortege silently slipped onward
and because of the insistence of
Mrs. Harding that travel be slow
enough to permit all who had
gathered to view the fiower-decked
coffin in it's dimly lighted car, the
train was greeted by throngs at
every station and wayplace.
