The spaces thus set aside are not
private parking spaces for the exclu-
sive use of the concerns to whom the
permits are issued.
They are parking spaces for the
purpose of loading OF unloading pas
sengers and merchandise, and even
the concerns to whom they are is
sued are not allowed to park their
vehicles there for unlimited periods,
and if they do they are violating the
law. These are open spaces which
are necessary for the transaction of
business.
IF such spaces were not available
the streets would be filled with park
cd cars, and those who have passen-
gers or goods to deliver would have
to deliver them in the middle Of the
street AS a matter of fact there are
not as many of these spaces as there
should be in some blocks in the con-
gested district. for you will realize, If
you will study the situation, that
there Is entirely too much double
parking, due to the fact that these
vehicles which must deliver their
goods cannot drive into the curb. ow

Opposition to women serving as

Oppose Woman Jurors.
The opposition to women on jury
service came from the committee on
law, Of which Alexander Wolf is
chairman. The committee in it's re-
port states that the physical and
nervous condition of women in gen.
eral unfit them for jury service. that
they do not desire to participate in

jurors.

Sol Bloom of New York. calling for
the removal of the Patent Office and
the Strengthening Of F street at that
point, is approved by the committee.
which also urges the repeal of the
Borland paving law.
Urge Water improvements.
The committee on water supply
asks that $4,000 be appropriated by
Congress to pay the cost OF thor
ough study of the burden the Federal
and District Governments should share
in paying for water consumption. The
report states that the entire cost of
operating and maintaining the water
supply system is borne only by the
water department revenues and will
amount to $1.450.000 this year. The
committee suggests an investigating
committee Of impartial engineers and
predicts that unless something is done
to determine the fair equity to be
borne by the two governments there
will be further increases in water
rents to the citizens.

ELDR|DGE DEFENDS
/. PARKING RULINGS
Declares Restrictions Are
Vital and Defends Permits
for Reservations.

Motorists Of Washington are being
more generously treated in regard to
parking spaces in the congeSted zone
than in any other large city in the
United States, Traffic Director NJ. ..
Eldridge declared today, in reply to a
report prepared by a Board of Trade
committee criticizing the lack OF park
ing space because of the designation
of certain areas for the exclusive use
OF hotels, business concerns and
others.
In a letter to George G.. Shinn,
chairman of the committee, Mr.. FL
bridge said that 'it is no longer pos
sible for any individual to expect that
he can leave his car in the congested
district all Cay long and get away
with it. The present limitation Of one
and two hours should make it pos
sible for any one to find a space oc
casionally to park If all motorists
would. at the end of that period
move their cars out of the congested
area.
Selfishness Causes Problem.
THE regulation of one and two
hour parking is intended for the con
Nenicnce Of al. but the Sellishness of
the few make it hard fer everybody
and makes il exceedingly difficult for
the police 20 enforce the regulation.
The congcated area only holds about
1000 cars, and there is 10 times that
number who would like to find a
place occasionally to park. II is a diff
ficult problem.
''It IS like driving Il square peg into
a round hole. ana if your committee
can offer any constructive SugScS-
tons as 10 what should he done. | am
sure that the Commissioners of the
District and this office would be glad
TO have them"
