CHAMBER D. KS
TRAFFIC RULE

The committee on public safety Of
the Washington Chamber Of Com.
merce, at its meeting last night,
went on record as favoring for the
present the retaining Of the system
of making left turns now in use
here.
The action was, taken following
a series OF short talks for and
against the present system by a
number Of authorities.
Director Of Traffic w. II. Harland,
Inspector e. w. Brown and Assis-
tant Director Of Trafe'e NJ. o. Ell.
bridge spoke In favor Of the sys.
tenn because, they said. It made It
more convenient and safer for pc.
destrians.
A. w. KoehIer, secretary OF the
conference on Street ande Highway
Safety, and Howard NJ. Sterling, Of
tie American Automobile Associa-
ton, told the members of the com.
mittee that the old system Of cut.
ting in to the corner ana turning
was best because it did not block
the passage Of traffic.
A study Of tho situation in detail
will probably be made by the COM
mittee, II was said.
The Washington times., 1929-04-24

Accordingly, attention was first
concentrated upon formulating a
uniform vehicle code having this
end in view.
1t was equally apparent that
municipalities are confronted with
special problems that no State law
could or should aspire to cover, and
so the conference next undertook
formulation of q model municipal
traffic ordinance. This is so drawn
that it can be utilized as a sound
framework by any city or town in
building legal regulations governing
the use of motor vehicles in such
centers and supplying remedy for
the traffic evils with which it may
be harassed. Several hundred cities
have already adopted this course
and with gratifying results.
Differences Not Great
The conference started with the
premise that the model ordinance
should be in complete harmony
with the State code. Study of the
problem next indicated that there
was not, after all, such a wide
fundamental divergence in muni-
cipalities but that many standard
provisions could well be applied to
those of all sizes
A tentative draft of the model
ordinance was distributed to public
officials, particularly police, citizens
organizations and other interested
