The entire campaign has been de-

Chairman Butler of the Republican

Stanton Park Citizens Ask
EIdridge's Aid to Solve
School Question.

The greater part of the meeting of
the Stanton Park Citizens Associa-
ton, held in the Peabody School last
night. was devoted to a discussion of
suggestions for solving the impending
traffic problem around Stanton Park
that will arise with the opening Of
schools.
Carbery, Peabody and Hilton
Schools are all within a half block Of
the park, and hundreds of children
are obliged to cross the streets bound
ing the park to reach their respective
schools. Fearing other accidents sim
liar to one last Fall, in which a small
girl was run down and seriously hurt,
members of the association have In
vited Traffic Director Eldridge to at
tend their meeting of October 5 for
the purpose of holding a general dis
cussion in the hope of arriving at
some adequate plan for solving this
problem.
Streets Are Narrow.
At present, both C street. on the
north of the park and Stanton place.
on the south, both very narrow
streets, are open to traffic from both
directions. The members passed a
resolution to have the chairman of
the police committee write TO Mr..
Eldridge requesting that these streets
be changed back to their former
status as one-way thoroughfares. Sew.
eral Of the members Of the associ-
alton pointed out that the children
were held up by the double streams
of traffic until they were either late
for school or forced to run across the
street at imminent risk to their lives
Another plan of placing signs for
the purpose of directing tourists SC
they would enter and leave the city
by more direct routes was discussed
Marking Inadequate.
1t was pointed out that Washing
ton is one of the few large cities that
is not adequately marked for the dt
rection of through traffic.

SEE THIRTIETH STREET
LOST AS THOROUGHFARE
Residents Petition Court to En- join
Builders From Invading Ground
Designed for Roadway.

An injunction seeking to prevent
Thirtieth street northeast from be
coming building lots was asked OF
the District Supreme Court yesterday
in a petition filed by Fred T. Watson
and Louise Watson of 1901 Thirtieth
street.
In their petition the plaintiffs allege
that the District Commissioners failed
TO designate the thoroughfare a street
AS a result. it is said, Ethel NJ. Rutty
IS preparing to build a row of houses
on what the plaintiffs claim should
rightfully be the roadway of the
street.
The plaintiffs and others had pre-
viously purchased property that they
Justly thought abutted the roadway
Now, 1t is held, the houses planned by
Mrs. Rutty would give the present
homes on the street the status of alley
dwellings,, since the backs Of the pro-
posed row would stop at their front
doors.
Attorneys Moulton, Jeffords and
Dutton appeared for the plaintiffs.
The District Supreme Court is asked
TO permanently enjoin the defendant
from proceeding and to decree that
the thoroughfare has been decided to
the District as a public highway.
