OVER
TRAFFIC;
LIGHTS
Commissioners Oppose Plan
OF Eldridge for Center
Type; Change Likely

Should Sixteenth street be
selected to try out the first traffic
lights these signals will be placed
at the curt and not at the center
Of Intersections as originally
planned, M. o: EIdridge, Director
of Traffic, said today.
The change III plans was made
after Commissioners Cuno H. Ru-
doIph and j. Franklin Bell vigor-
ously objected to center lights.
They voiced the fear that such
location of lights would detract
from the beauty Of this thorough
fare.
The objections Of the Commits
sioners will not Interfere with the
purchase of lights, it was said
today. Those to be bought may
<be used anywhere on the streets,
Has Commissions Advice.
I'VE plan to open bids on the
unit system" said Mr.. Eldridge.
1--WE will mount the traffic lights
on posts approved by the Fine
Arts Commission. They may be
placed either in the center OF the
street or at the curb"
There is a possibility that in
view OF the District of Columbia
Commissioners opposition, Mr.. Ed
ridge may select another street to
try out the first lights and place
them in the center OF these streets
The Commissioners oppose cen
ter lights on Sixteenth street, hG'
they have not expressed themselves
definitely as either for or against
center lights on other highways.
Obstacles to Overcome.
Several obstacles will have to be
overcome if lights are PLACED al
the curb.
They must be low enough so the
trees will not interfere with them
and high enough so, that double
deck busses will not hit them.
Director Eldridge plans to have
one light at each intersection, 10
Gated on the curb at the crossing
of two streets.
These lights will hang on an
arm suspended from a post and
will shine in four directions
There will lie red lights to indi
cate stop, green to indicate go and
yellow lights as a signal that a
change is about to be made.
Frank w. Mondell, member OF
the War Finance Corporation, in
a letter to the Commissioners, de
cIares that careful Consideration
should be given before any traffic
lights are allowed on Sixteenth
street.

DRY BONUS
SYSTEM
ENDS
Alexandria Police Voluntarily
Give Up Fees Town
Raises Their Pay

Revolution of the methods Of
enforcing the prohibition law in
Alexandria, Va, which may lead
to revision Of the entire State
enforcement system, probably viii
be adopted as a result of action
By the Alexandra police, prollibi-
ton officials here have been noti-
fled.
The police Of Alexandra, Iii .
sesoiution signed by svel member
Of the force, have asked that the
payment Of bonuses for arrest and
conviction of prohibitioii law
v.oIators be discontinued in the
interest Of efficient Jaw enforce
ment.
To Give Fees to City.
The members of the force have
offered to turn over to the city all
commissions for arrests to which
they are entitled under the Stat ;
and prohibition laws.
In recognition of this voluntary
move on the part of the police,
which, according to City Manager
Paul Morton, will do more to estab.
llsh an efficient system of law en-
forcement than any other one
thing. the city council Immediately
voted raise in the salary Of every
appropriation, included in the an
:lual budget which goes into effect
today, the salary OF ey1 police
man will be increased 10 or $1J q
month.
$40 for Each Arrest.
Under the State prohibition law
a policeman Is entitled to a fee of
$40 for every person arrested by
him and convicted of drunkenness.
He is entitled to a fee of $25 for
every automobile transporting liquor
captured by him, and for the cap.
ture of still he gets $50. The In
evitable result of such a system,
Mr.. Morton, who was formerly di'
rector of public safety here, de.
clared, Is to encourage members Oh
the force to spend the major part
of their time in trying to apprehend
dry law violators. Such a system,
he claimed, makes for discrimi1a-
ton in law enforcement, and for
that reason is extremely pernicious.
He congratulated the police on their
action and expressed it as his be-
lief that in establishing such a
precedent they have showed the
way to other cities in this respect.
The resolution reads, in part, as
follows: I'VE, the undersigned
being members of the police force
of Alexandria, Va. do hereby, OF
our own free will and accord, as
sign, transfer. and set over unto
said city council of Alexandria all
