TRAFFIC SIGNALS FAIL;
ONE-WAY STREETS MADE
Busy Intersection Cleared by New
Regulation Established on
Rock Creek Road.

Failure Of the traffic lights installed
at the intersection of Georgia avenue,
New Hampshire avenue and Rock Creek
Church road to handle the trafflc at
that intersection successfully led the
Commissioners yesterday to issue an or
der making Rock Greek Church road a
one-way street for eastbound traffic
from Georgia avenue to Seventh street
and one way for westbound traflc from
Georgia avenue to Ninth street.
This was recommended by Trafflc Di-
rector William H. Harland in order to
reduce the intersection to q four-way
crossing.
This system of handling six-way
traffic is now working satisfactorily at
the intersection of Sixteenth and u
streets and New Hampshire avenue"
Mr.. Harland reported. 1.-The same plan
is in effect at Pennsylvania avenue and
Eleventh street southeast"

Snuff-Using Habit,
Once Popular With
Kings, Gains in us.
Tax Records Show Out
put of 100000 Lbs.
in December.

The descendants Of the people who
invented snuff, over 800 years ago, and
then taught all Europe how to use it,
are becoming addicted to the habit
again.
Whether the revival is due to pro-
hibition. or to limitations imposed by
an industrial age on other uses of to-
bacco, is matter Of speculation.
The fact remains, however, that
American manufacturers are producing
more snuff. Tax records made public
yesterday by the Internal Revenue Bu-
reau showed that $4,000 pounds were
produced last December, as against
2,910, 765 for December of 1923.
At the same time tax collections for
the two months mounted from 1923 ,937
to $550,817. This rise was further borne
out in collections for the first half of
the fiscal year Of 1929 compared with
those of the corresponding period Of
1880.
For at least 100 years past the snuff
habit largely has been confined to the
people of the Southern mountains. The
usage showed change, too, with the
waning popularity of the brown dust.
Dipping SNUFF Is the present habit
among mountain folk, who chew the
powdered tobacco from twigs of some
aromatic herb which they call tooth
brushes"
In the days of the Louises of France
and during the reign OF william and
Anne of England the dandified courtiers
pinched their snun daintily from
jeweled boxes and inhaled 1t through
their nostrils. The pungent aroma
produced q tickling sensation and often
a sneeze. regarded as highly pleasant
by the addicts.
Some of the most highly priced bits
of ancient craftsmanship in Europe to-
day are the snuff boxes Of kings and
emperors, many of them fashioned of
precious metals and encrusted with
jewels.
The bureaus figures also showed a
decline on the tax paid on cigars, al
though cigarettes, which have come
into fashion among American women,
were taxed at $166,39s. 662 during the
FIRST six months Of the past fiscal year
and then jumped to $181,571 1856 for
the first half Of the 1880 fiscal year.
