OYSTER IS PLEASED
BY WHISTLE RULE
Believes Much Benefit Will
Follow When System Is
More Familiar.

Commissioner Oyster. in charge of
police affairs, expressed the belief
yesterday that the plan requiring off,
GERS to blow their whistles in advance
of turning the semaphores should
prove beneficial in the regulation of
traffic at downtown inte,sec dons.
The length of tina nat should
elapse between the blast Of the whis-
tie and the changing of the sign is
being left to the judgment of the in
dividual traffic officers. the object be-
ing to wait long enough to enable
pedestrians and vehicles that are half
way across to reach the opposite side
before releasing traffic in the other
direction. The Commissioner said he
was in accord with this principle of
traffic regulation.
Inspector Albert J. Headley. chief
OF the traffic bureau. who addressed
the night squad of crossing men Fri
day to impress upon them that the
whistle rule must be carried out
made the same talk to the day force
yesterday.
Extra Tramc Omcerx.
In addition to the regular traffic
squad, there are certain patrolmen in
the first and third precincts who help
to direct traffic during the morning
and evening rush hours.
In order that the rule of blowing
the whistle and waiting an interval
before changing direction might be
observed uniformly at all points, In
spector Headley yesterday requested
the captains of those two precincts
to give. .their patrolmen the same in
structionS now issued to regular traf-
fic men.
If the "go" sign is turned for north
and south traffic at the same instant
that the whistle is blown the value
of the whistle is lost, because the
north and south traffic will start
across before the east and west
vehicles have cleared the intersection
Pedestrians moving east and west
would be caught half way across.
Inspector Headley's order to his
blowing the whistle for the inter
section to become reasonably clear
of east and west traffic before releas-
ing the north and south stream.
Warning to Pedestrians.

ers that their cooperation is essen

to pedestrians. When a pedestrian
steps of the curb with the stop sigr

Inspector Headley pointed out yes
! terday that one of the most Difficult
problems at intersections is to protec

"It makes little difference" the in
spector said. whether you have the

also on Americas aid to France dur
ing the World War. He then said:
whatever ceremonies may unite US
in remembrance of these glorious
deeds must be commended. Tt was
upon virginia's soil that Lafayette
had the chief command during the
darkest days of the Revolution. Un-
der him served the Virginia soldiers
of the war. Here he defended the
capital city when it was endangered
by the troops of the traitor, Arnold,
