trafic and countless visitors will come
to Washington for the George Wash
ington Bicentennial celebration. The
stream of traffic that will pour down
the roadway through Rock Creek Park
will add materially to the thousands
of automobiles that now visit Potomac
Park.
Capt. Carroll is hopeful that by that
time the Washington motorist will be
educated into stepping on the gas"
when he is directed to do so by the
traffic officer. There seems to be a
distinct opposition on the part of park
officials to placing traffic lights in the
parks, not only because of the dis
cordant note such lights must strike
in a parkway, but also because. the
traffic varies so in volume that during
many hours they would interfere mate
rally with the ,public's enjoyment Of
park driving in order to facilitate
matters during relatively short crowded
periods.
And so, in traffic matters, the Wash
ington motoring public is likely to en-
counter the human element in the
guiding of park traffic in the form OF
the park policeman, rather than the
trafic light. Hence, in the opinion OF
the park officials, the public should
cooperate with the officers by speeding
up at the proper time and when desired
to do so.

have the cleaning done by an expert
enced radiator service man. For those
who undertake the job themselves, the
following directions will prove useful:
Run the motor until it Is warm, then
open all radiator cocks and drain the
cooling system thoroughly. Dissolve a
pound Of sal soda in five gallons Of
water and pour this mixture (after
straining it through CLOTH into the
radiator. Run the engine slowly with
the spark retarded for five minutes, and
then drain the system. Refill with clear
water, running the engine as before.
Drain and repeat with clear water.
Then, after flushing for several minutes
longer with the motor still running,
the system may be filled for use.
It is essential that all traces Of sal
soda be removed, because of its detri-
mental action II left In the cooling sys-
tenn. Care should be taken not to spill
any soda on the hood or radiator shell.
The same process is urged before
anti-freeze mixture Is installed in the
cooling system at the approach OF freez-
ing weather.

TARIFF
IS SEEN AS RUSE
A. A. A. Official Says Levy
Screen to Cover Gas
Price Increase.

Charging that the unprecedented
proposal to levy tariff on petroleum
and petroleum products is simply a
screen to enable the oil industry to
boost gasoline prices. Ernest N. Smith,
executive vice president Of the Ameri-
can Automobile Association, recently
filed q brief with the Senate finance
committee opposing such a tariff and
attacking the position Of its propon-
ents.
ut has been estimated" said Mr..
Smith. that should the proposed I'M
port duty be levied that the retail price
Of gasoline would be increased at least
2 cents per gallon. Based on present
consumption, which is being steadily
increased, this would mean an addi-
tional burden on the car owners Of the
Nation of approximately $240, 000,00
annually.
Moreover. the proposed import duty

enunciated by the United States Gov
eminent"
The A. A. A. brief was filed with
Senator Reed Smoot Republican,
Utah), chairman Of the Senate finance
committee, and is expected to precipi-
tate lively battle on the question of
a tariff on petroleum.
In support of the brief. Mr. Smith
called the finance committees atten-
ton to the following resolution passed
by the A. A. A. at its twenty-seventh
annual convention recently held in
Buffalo, N. Y:
Proposals are now being made by
certain interests before the Senate
finance committee to levy an import
duty on crude and fuel oil, gasoline.

Of crude petroleum. The object of these
proposals is naturally to produce
higher prices for these products. The
American Automobile Association there

any import duty on such products and

committee in the interest of the users

lied"
Protesting against the proposed i'm
port duty on petroleum, Mr.. Smith
pointed out that special taxes levied

city, as it will have tendency to open
up this new thoroughfare, along the
enlarged B street of the future, for
through traffic to Virginia. The Blu
reau of Public Roads Of the Depart
ment of Agriculture now Is working on
plans for the establishing Of the new
Mount Vernon Memorial Highway,
which is expected to link up with the
Virginia terminus Of Arlington Memo
rial Bridge.
Will Relieve Other Spans.
Col. Grant has let 1t be known that
he has no way of estimating just how
many machines would be taken on
other streets, by the opening Of the new
bridge. but he pointed out that this will
open up a new line Of trafic between
the Highway Bridge, which is crowded
so as to be source OF accidents ire
uuently now, and the Key Bridge, which
also is crowded.
The width of Arlington Memorial
Bridge for traffic has been illustrated
by Col. Grant, woh points out that 1t
will have six channels for vehlcular
traffic and will be go feet wide. 1t will
be about the same size as the road
around the Lincoln Memorial at the
present time.
Yet another approach to the Wash
ington park system will be B street,
which is to be designed as the great
ceremonial avenue OF the Nations
Capital" B street north is to be opened
up to the Senate once Building area,
crossing Pennsylvania avenue, starting
on the north side at Third street and
ending on the south side at Sixth street.
Granite Contract Is Let.
Motorists now find that they have
to detour when they travel south along
Twenty-Sixth street and reach b street.
owing to the construction work going
forward at that point for the founda-
lions of the Arlington Memorial Bridge
Plaza and the water gate that will be
one of the beauty spots in conjunction
with the bridge. Another contract has
Just been let by Col. Grants ONCE to
place the granite that will link Rock
Greek Park and Potomac Park.
The motorist of the future will then
be able to drive up a gradually-slop-
ing parkway approach from Twenty
sixth street and street to the Ar.
lington Memorial Bridge Plaza. and
down into Potomac Park. Two under
passes will be constructed for the road
that will pass under the parkway APP
proach and under Arlington Memorial
Bridge proper to permit traffic to 60

level roadway, skirting the Potomac
River.
Col. Grants office is now at work on
constructing another link in the ROCK
Greek and Potomac Parkway system by
putting in an improved road from the
Geological Park to MASSACHUSETTS, ave
nue.. Construction of this through
route along Rock Greek will depend on
the rate at which Congress appro-
pirates the funds to carry on the work.

One Of the major reasons why traf-
fic is tied up at Hams Point each Sun
day is because motorists themselves fail
to drive fast, when they get the .trafhc
officers signal to do so, in the opinion
of Capt. P. J. Carroll of the United
States Park Police.
Recently. with group of officials
of the American Automobile ASSocia-
ton here, Capt. Carroll went to Four
tenth street at the point that traffic
comes out of Potomac Park under the
railroad bridge and conducted q test
In. psychology.
Used to creeping along in the park
in the traffic jam, the motorists refuse
to be fastened into greater speed when
the traffic officer endeavorS to get the
line to speed up.
I'VE could clear traffic along Four
tenth street out of Potomac Park
easily enough if the motorists would
only step on the gas when We want
them to-" Capt. Carroll asserted.
LIT is the same way in Rock Creek
Park, where the roads are narrow in
some places" the park official said.
I'm many places there are single lines
of traffic and the motorist in back who
wants to assist in speeding up trafhc by
going ahead Is unable to do so, because
of the slow poke ahead who insists
upon proceeding. at snairs pace"
"Center Road" Drivers Hit.
Capt Carroll recalled that in some
of the States there is minimum speed
law. which requires autoists to go at a
certain pace In order to expedite traf-
fic movement. He declined to say
whether he is in favor of such a regu-
lation in the parks of the District OF
Columbia. however, preferring to leave
this question up to the decision OF
Lieut.. Col. u. S. Grant, Sd, director OF
the office of public buildings and public
parks C. the National Capital.
Capt Carroll took occasion TO point
out another factor In slowing up traffic
In the parks-the driver who refuses to
keep to the right-hand side Of the road
This is particularly noticed in East
Potomac Park, he said, where there Is
one-way traffic. Many motorists have
a tendency to keep to the left rather
than the right, thus blocking of the
motorist in the rear who desires to
travel more quickly. II the motorist In
the rear, after blowing his horn In vain
cides to try to pass the offender on the
right there is danger of a collision,
Capt. Carroll said.
Favors New Bridge.
To relieve the Hams Point traffic sit
uation, Col. Grant is inclined to favor
the construction of new trafac bridge
across the Washington Channel, to
empty traffic out of oPtomac Park by
way of Water street, which is to be one
of the main thoroughfares OF the future.
It is planned later to hook up this
highway with the developed Anacostia
Park, so that it will be possible to
drive through Rock Greek Park into
Potomac Park and then into Anacostia
Park. making a gigantic all-park route
for Washington's motorists.
