BERLIN TRAFFIC POLICE
German Capital Finds Application
of American Principle
Difficult.
Correspondence Of the Associated Press.

Core spondence OF the Associated Press.
BERLIN, November 17.-Berlin Is
having a hard time putting through
it's new traffic regulations, which, for
the most part, are patterned upon
American models. In fact, this cap
ital, in which cabinet crises are so
frequent as to be uninteresting, is
now developing what may be termed
a traffic crisis. Next to campaign
news the discussion pro and con of
the new regulations for vehicles and
pedestrians occupies most space in
the daily press.
The difficulty seems to be two-fold:
First, the lack of discipline of the
pedestrians, and second. the unor-
ganized admixture of pushcarts,
autos, electric cars, busses, bicycles
I'd horse-drawn vehicles in the
-treets.
The Berlin pedestrian regards it as
his inalienable right to cross the
street wherever and however he
pleases. He will throw himself into
the confused tumble of vehicles of
every description in the middle Of
the square and insist upon crossing
without waiting until he reaches a
street intersection. Until the Ger
mans can be taught to bow to the
same rules when he is out walking
as govern his progress when he is
riding. the enforcement of traffic
regulations will be rendered illusory

Proposes to Collect Facts.

The commissions report dealt largely
with the gathering and publication of
facts relating to economic subjects and
business matters, and administration of
the export trade act, which has to do
with associations engaged solely in such
commerce.
A summary of the commissions de-
ciSions was given in the report, which
was described as a guide to busi-
ness interests as to practice, con-
stituting unfair methods in compe-
tition. Chief among the unfair
methods named were misbranding,
sdulteration of comm odities, with re-
sulting misre representation, use of
false or misleading advertising, in7
tmidation, trade boyCotts and all
methods OF forcing wholesalers or
retailers to maintain fixed resale
prices. The commission also cited
as other important work of the year

Steel Corporation prohibiting the use
OF the Pittsburgh plus system of de-
termining the price of steel, the re-

Practically the whole of the whale
