with little sympathy from the Office
OF the corporation counsel, others at
the District Building said. II the law
were lifted and no lights were re-
quired on parked cars at night, driv-
ers who collided with cars lacking
lights would have basis for a suit
against the District, In the opinion
of officials OF the corporation coun-
sells Office. Such a course would
be sure to meet with opposition at
the Capitol, also, 1t was pointed out,
since Senators several months ago
urged that the night parking light
regulation be rigidly enforced, after
the proposal of Commissioner Fen
ming that all-night parking be elm
mated was decided against.
While the traffic director Is open to
suggestions on betterment of the
traffic situation here, he feels that the
fabric of traffic laws and regulations,
erected by his predecessors and aug
mented by himself since he took office
a little less than year ago, should
not be torn down without mature
thought and considerable investiga-
ton. He knows that he alone Is re-
sponsible for the success or failure
OF the law. even though administra-
ton of the regulations Is placed in
the hands Of the Police Department,
over which he has no control. That
the motorists of Washington have
taken his appeal for suggestions on
improvements literally was shown
today by the number Of telephone
calls that came to his Office following
his statement yesterday asking for
ideas,
Arrests Treble i'm Year.
The Police Department today made
public a comparison OF the arrests
for violations of the traffic regulations
for last month and for March a year
ago, more than a month before the
new traffic code became effective on
May 8, 1925. 1t showed d total OF
6,977 arrests last month, compared
with 2,447 in March q year ago. To
make the situation more impressive,
Mr.. Eldridge pointed out that last
month only three regulations were In
effect which were not in the code III
March, 1925. These were one-arm
driving, the horse drawn regulation on
Sixteenth street and the solid-tire
truck regulation.
Violation of parking-light regula-
tions led the list of arrests with q
total of 2,056 in March, 1926, against
10 in March year ago. The in
crease in arrests for overtime parking
was just as marked, however. the
total jumping from So In March last
year to 1.017 last month. Arrests for
speeding increased from 757 in March,
1925, to 1.016 in March, 1925.
Mr.. Eldridge Is expected back in
Washington Saturday. BY that time
the acting director hopes to have gone
over the regulations 80 thoroughly
that he can recommend elimination
of some Of those deemed unnecessary
