HITS ELDR|DGE'S
TRAFFIC PROPOSAL
18th Street Heights Associa-
tion Condemns 'ReguIa-
tion" of Pedestrians.

Opposition to the proposal of Traf-
fic Director NJ. o. Eldridge 10 regula .
pedestrian traffic was voiced by the
Sixteenth Street Heights Citizens
Association in a meeting last night
at the residence of Perry Cleveland,
1901 Geranium street. which had been
specially called for the annual cleo
ton of officers.
Alvin w. Hall was reelected presi-
dent of the aSsocia ton Other Off
GERS selected were Joseph w King
lips, secretary, and H. J. Horner,
treasurer.
See Traffic Situation Confused
A resolution was adopted, after con-
siderable dissatisfaction had been
voiced against the present unsatis-
factory and confused traffic situa-
ton in which the District Commits
sioners were petitioned ito defer ac-
tion on the proposed police regulation
relative to control of pedestrian traf-
fic until such time as the director of
traffic is in a position to protect the
pedestrian" Another resolution unan-
imously adopted called on the traffic
director Ito cease issuing new traffic
regulations and to Confine his efforts
to enforcing those which were in eX-
istence at the time he assumed office"
Speakers vigorously declared that
under the present situation motorists
and pedestrians alike, do not know
what to do
stop" Signals Criticized.
Members pointed to the many stop"
signs which Mr.. Eldridge had painted
on streets intersecting with the
several boulevard highways" as con-
fusing and declared that in many
places the signs had already been
worn out so that motorists could not
see them and consequently did not
know when to stop and when to con-
tinue across intersections.
Copies of the resolutions were
ordered sent to the District Commis-
sioners and to the Federation of
Citizens Associations for their con-
sideration. 1t was said, however,
that having gone on record on the
matter, the Sixteenth Street Heights
Association did not now contemplate
any further direct action.

mission. Clarence W. Miles, people s
council Of the commission. handled
the case. assisted by G. E. IAiello and
r. A. Bogley Of Hyattsville, while
the Sanitary Commission was repre-.
sented by Attorneys Charles w. Clag-
gett of Washington and Robert B.
Morse, chief engineer of the com
mission.
Tells of $32 Charge.
James c. Steele, property owner
Of Franklin street. Hyattsville. was
the first witness placed on the stand.
He told of the s32 charge which
the commission had levied agains,
each piece Of property served with
water by the commission and Of the
protest which all the property owners
had made. He said he took up the
matter with Mr. Duckett of the Sani-
tary Commission, but that was all ii
had ever amounted to. Mr.. Steele
claimed that new pipes and water
connections had been made on other
streets in Hyattsville, mentioning
property on Arunah and Aborn ave-
nues, for which property owners had
never received a bill, but when the
mains were changed from a 6 to -
ft,nh in, III; l.
property owner was charged s32 for
the new connections.
Witness Cross Examined.
Mr.. Steele was cross-exa mined at
considerable length by Attorney Clag.
gett. who objected 10 the commission
allowing his testimony relative to
non-charges for connections being
placed in the record. Mr.. Claggett
said that If such a thing happened
it was through an oversight or neglect
of an employe of the commission,
and as such could not be taken as a
record of regular business Chair
man Harold West then remarked to
Mr.. Claggett that. irrespective of
whether il was an error or not, if
some connections were installed with
out charge and others charged for
IL certainly showed discrimina tion.
MIR. Claggett would not admit this,
but the commission overruled his OBJ
lection and the testimony was ad-
mitted.
Mr.. Steele was emphatic In his testir
mony that the water supply on Frank.
lin street was entirely adequate be-
fore the installations of the new mains
and that the old S-inch mains gave
satisfactory service.
