PARKING RULES
ARE SLIGHTLY
CHANGED

The parking limit in downtown
Washington today was extended by
the District Commissioners from
one-half to one hour. Parking
around the District building was
cut down from two hours to one
hour
simultaneously with this action
by the Commissioners. Inspector AL
bert ]. Headley, in charge of the
traffic bureau, announced the
launching Of campaign to enforce
the parking regulations.
In addition to making a change
in the parking limit, the Commits
sioners wrote to Lieut.. Col. G. O..
Sheriff., officer in charge of public
buildings and grounds, and asked
that he permit automobiles to park
around the Ellipse and on other
roadways near the downtown sec.
ton all day.
The action of the commissioners
was taken on the recommendation
Of the traffic board, consisting of
Major. w. H. Holcombe, Assistant
Engineer Commissioner; Ringgold
Hart, Assistant Corporation Counsel
and Inspector Headley.
The board told the Commission.
ers that the change in the parking
time would relieve congestion If
Col, Sheriff. will permit the use of
the roadways in the parks.
The new parking limits will not
become effective until thirty days.
