PROPOSED
FOR NONSTOP
STREETS
ArteriaI Highways As Used in
Detroit May Relieve Auto
Traffic Here.

Creation of a system of arterial
highways in Washington to relieve
traffic congestion during the rush
period is being considered by Con-
gresham Clarence ]. Mcleod of De-
troit, Mich. a member of the House
District Committee.
The system would be patterned
closely after that now in successful
use in Detroit. Congressman Nc
Leod was requested before the holi-
days to prepare such bill, and
make careful study of the Detroit
system during his stay there since
Christmas.
The arterial highway system
would set aside certain thorough.
fares now being most heavily used
by motorists going to outlying Sec
tons of the city. These would be
designated as "nontsop" highways,
and any automobile entering or
crossing them would first be com:
PEELED to come to q dead stop.
Congressman Mcleod stated that
experience in Detroit has shown
that this system eases up traffic
and lessons accidents. He said that
Sixteenth Fourteenth and First
streets and Connecticut and Penn
sylvania avenues had been tenta-
lively suggested as arterial high
ways in northwest Washington. He.
said that he would welcome sug-
gestions as to other such highways
needed
