URGE new PLAN
T0SAVE TREES

The elimination of all parking on
north and south bound streets
during rush hours, instead of
widening the streets, was suggested
to the District Commissioners today
as q means of avoiding the further
destruction of Washington's shade
trees.
The current street widening pro
gram was halted yesterday by the
Commissioners as result of pro-
tests over the cutting down of
shade trees.
If parking is eliminated the
present street will be as wide from
the standpoint of moving traffic as
the Widened streets would be with
cars parked on both sides, advo-
Gates OF the plan declared today
Elimination of parking on these
streets is the only way in which
the trees can be saved and at the
same time proper provision made
for handling traffic, 1t was said.
The tree situation was to be con-
sidered today at a meeting of the
Commissioners who are still unde.
cided as to what their policy will
be.
Contracts for widening Connecti-
cut Avenue and three other streets
have been awarded and the widen.
ing of the streets was specifically
| ordered by Congress in the appro-
priation bill. Nevertheless, the
| question may be left over for set
