that the joint committee will be
able to finish the bill at the next
meeting set for Thursday afternoon
at. $50 o'clock.
Three traffic bills, which have
BEEN drafted at the direction of the
Joint committee, were used today
as tn basis for the new bill which
is being speeded.
These bills are the ones framed
by the two New York experts, the
one originally drafted by direction
Of Chairman l.. HeiNer Call, and
the one sent to Congress only a
few days ago by Engineer Commits
sioner Bell.
The joint e, committee appeared
very favorably impressed by The
concise bill sent them by Engineer
Commissioner Bell and it was the
fact that he had recommended three
hundred additional policemen that
led to this increase being UNANIMOUSLY
adopted. The bill drafted by the
New York experts suggested 500 adj
ditional policemen.
1t was brought out at the meet
ing that at present the District has
sixty policemen less than it's quota,
and If the city Is to get the full
benefit of 800 additional policemen
it must conduct "a campaign to keep
the force up to it's full strength.
