Advisory Group and Expert
Recommendations viii Be
Urged on Congress.
PROPOSAL WOULD GIVE
D. C. BODY ADDED POWER
DR.. McClintock Disagrees With
Study Council Over Limitation
Of Duties Of Engineer.

The District Commissioners today
turned over to Corporation Counsel
william w. Bride the task Of preparing
the wording Of five bills relating TO
trafic which they will seek to have
passed at the coming session Of Con-
gress. The bills are those recommended
by the Trafic Advisory Council and
Traffic Committee and concurred in by
DR.. Miller McClintock, Harvard Univer-
sity traffic expert, employed by the Ma
tionAl Capital Park and Planning
Commission.
The bills would give power to the
Commissioners to pass new regulations,
but before q regulation is changed the
same notice must be given by adVer-
Using In the newspapers as at present.
Four Bills Are Regular.
Four Of the bills are legislation in
conformity with that in effect in many
States One Is titls, registration act;
another is q drivers permit act, not diff
fering greatly from the one now IN
effect; third Is the So-called safety
responsibility bill,'' providing certain
penalties for those who do not satisfy
judgments secured against them for
personal injuries or property damage;
the fourth Is O motor vehicle registra-
ton act, also quite similar to the one
now IN effect, and the fifth Is q bill
giving the Commissioners the power to
initiate new trafIic regulations. q power
now residing solely in the director of
trafic.
What the Commissioners will do
about the other features of the report
before them has not yet been decided,
and no decision Is expected Immediately.
The reports from the committee and
DR.. McClintock, made public yesterday,
are m conflict ON several points. DR..
McClintock favors putting everything
relating to traf1c, except enforcement
of the regulations, into one ONCE pre-
sided over by q trafic engineer. The
committee favored limiting the duties
of the traf1c engineer to trafac en-
cheering and research. It Ia believed
the Commissioners lean toward the
committee plan.
Other Matters 70 Wait.
There are q number of other mat
tiers In the committee report which
will be allowed to lie until passage OF
the trafic bill is secured. One of the
most contentious Of these relates to In
creasing the gasoline tax and the fees
charged for registration Of motor
vehicles.
The detailed trafic regulations, In
GLIDING such recommendations, as one
for O return to the Hoover left-turn
system and conflicting recommends
tons on Speed-limit legislation, win also
be allowed to 60 over at least until the
act giving the Commissioners the power
to originate traff1c legislation Is passed.
