white CAP MAY MARK
D. C. TRAFFIC OFFICER
Motorists Complain Present Dark
Apparel Difficult to Tell From
Z Pedestrian at Night.

OficiaIs Of the police department are
considering the question Of adopting a
white cap and helmet for members Of
the traffic squad. From time to time
the police have been told Of the DIM
culties motorists experience, especially
1T night, distinguishing traffic police
men from civilians because Of the Lack
ef distinctive uniform.
At conferences recently held by police
officials 1t was suggested that both
white caps and belts should be worn
by the traffic men. The suggestion
appealed to those participating in the
conference as a good one, but no de-
cision has been reached.
It Is probable that the white cap
will be adopted, but lack Of funds prob
ably will mean delay in the adoption
Of the belt. Caps are paid for by the
policemen, while belts are furnished
by the department. Traffic policemen
in New York and Boston wear white
caps, it is stated. and white belts are
also worn by those in the latter city.
