TRAFFIC CONTROL
SYSTEM REVISED
New Plan Worked Out for
Vicinity of Fire House
on 18th Street.

A new system for controlling traffic
in the vicinity of the fire engine house
on Thirteenth street between K and L
streets has been worked out by engi-
neers of the traffic department, it was
announced today by Traffic Director
william A. Van Duzer.
The traffic situation on Thirteenth
street and the fact the new engine
house will be used by the water tower
and other large pieces of apparatus, Mr
Van DuZer said. confronted the traffic
department with complex problem.
new system, however, he declared, is ex-
pected to work satisfactorily.
Two additional traffic lights will be
installed, one to control northbound
traffic and the other southbound traffic.
A switch which will put these lights
into operation will be located in the fire
house. These lights will be turned on
only when the apparatus leaves to re-
spond to an alarm, and then for a brief
period of 80 seconds.
II the apparatus is to go in a south
bound direction. the lights at Thirteenth
and K streets will give flashing signal
as warning to motorists to clear the
intersection. The lights at Thirteenth
and L streets will flash only when the
apparatus IS to go in a northbound
direction.
The two additional signals will be To-
Gated so that the apparatus will have a
clear sweep OF Thirteenth street in front
OF the engine house in order to avoid
any delay in making a turn.

ACADEMY EXAMS
WILL Be RESUMED
BY CIVIL SERVICE
Preliminary Tests for West
Point and Annapolis Can
didateS Permitted.
ARRANGEMENT ALLOWED
BY EXECUTIVE ORDER
One of Congress Economy Moves
Abandoned in Decision
of Commission.

One Of the economy moves of the
last session of Congress went by the
boards today when it was made known
at the Civil Service Commission that
that agency would resume holding the
examinations of which many members
of Senate and House have availed
themselves in selecting candidates for
West Point and Annapolis.
An executive order permits the ar
rangement to be carried on, the ex-
pense to be absorbed in the regular
appropriation for the commission.
Under an order issued by President
Roosevelt in 1907, the Commission was
empowered to conduct these tests at
the request of any member of House or
Senate, provided no extra expense was
attached. At first, it cost no more, but
as time went on, it began to run into
money, and last year. with about IT'S
members taking advantage of this serv-
ice, the expenditure was $7400.
This item was brought to the atten-
ton OF the Budget Bureau when esti-
mates for the new fiscal year were being
prepared, and it went out. Congress
abided by this action, and the commits
sion announced no more of these pre-
liminary eXamina tions would be held
Then members OF Congress began to
urge that the tests be resumed, and
with more than so requests of this ma
ture in hand. Chairman Thomas E.
Campbell of the Civil Service Commits
SIGN, moved to see what could be done
1t was decided that the examinations
could be cared for with the existing
personnel, and that the negligible az
ditional cost for printing also could be
absorbed without exceeding the commits
sion's appropriation for the year.
Because of the circumstances, how
ever, new executive order was deemed
necessary and with explanation made
to the White House, this was forth
coming.
Members of Congress urging contin-
uance asserted that they were obtain
ing higher class of candidates as the
result of the examinations which put
applicants from the same State or dis
trict on a competitive basis, and Chair
man Campbell also Is of the opinion
that this offers fairer field than
where the candidate is simply hand
picked.
Some members of Congress who do
not put their candidates through the
Civil Service Commission examination
have tests arranged by the school au-
thorities in their States
Examinations are scheduled next
month.
