Police Badges
Are Presented
To d. C.. Heads
Rules Could Prerent OF.
fciaIs From Smoking
Before Midnight.

Regulations probably won't bear
heavily on the holders of solid gold
police badges, but if they do Com
nlissioners Hazen and Allen will have
to wait until midnight before smoking
on duty.
The regulations also ban beer and
wine or any drink with a trace of
alcohol. Thus the Commissioners
might find their menus restricted by
the new badges.
Maj. Ernest W. Brown. superin-
tendent of police. presented them to
the Commissioners at the District
Building this morning, as a gift from
members of the force.
The badges are of regulation size
and inscribed with Commissioner"
instead of regulation numbers.
This was done to insure the Com
missioners means of ready identifica-
ton. They already are vested by law
with police .poMers.

TRADE BODY ASKS
PARKING BAN END
125 Members of 9TH Street
Association Assert Busi-
ness Is Hard Hit.

Prohibition Of parking on portions
of F, G and Seventh streets was de-
clared entirely unfair. hurtful and
discriminating" in a statement given
out today by Cecil D. Kaufman,
president of the Seventh Street Busi-
ness Mems Association.
Speaking on behalf of 125 business
establishments along Seventh street.
between Pennsylvania avenue and K
street, Kaufman warned that the
parking ban will undoubtedly result
in additional unemployment"
He continued:
The parking ban is not affecting
all merchants equally, because it re-
stricts parking on certain streets but
not in the entire metropolitan area.
Therefore, it is definitely discrimina-
tory.
Traffic Volume Cut.
by actual clocking and observation
on the street, we know it has elimi-
mated great many pedestrians and
has tended toward lessening traffic on
the street, which is hurting business.
elimination Of parking on these
streets is inf1icting unnecessary hard
ship on the shopping public. 1t makes
1t necessary for those owning auto
mobiles to park outside of the re-
stricted area, and TO reach the center
Of the shopping district by the added
expense of trolley car, bus or taxi
fares.
1T tends to decentralize the shop
ping habits of the community and
will ultimately tend to force large
proportions Of the business now being
done in the metropolitan area to out
lying segregated shopping points, be-
cause it will be more convenient than
to come into a district that has such
restrictions.
THE merchants, as whole. feel
that all business has been subjected
to very trying and lean times the
last four years, and that this parking
ban creates additional hardships that
should not be levied upon them now.
Discrimination Charged.
"It is felt that the measure is dis
crimjna tory, since the merchants were
not consulted before the experiment
was not fair, since we do represent a
large proportion Of the total taxes to
both city and national government in
this community
In the trial thus far, the parking
ban has not eliminated the traffic
congestion from 4.30 to at night.
when every one is in a rush, including
the Government emnlOVes to reach
their homes.
I'VE, individually and collectively,
are perfectly willing to ascribe to any
ruling that is not discriminatory and
that is suggested by fair representa-
ton, and wherein the business mems
problems are considered in busi-
nesslike fashion. We are most anxious
to aid in correcting this traffic con-
gestion and are willing to cooperate
with the various other business asso-
Citations in the community for the
good of ALL"

World Banking
New York Tilncs)

The banker IS not exactly popular
anywhere. Business men who 70 to
tho banker for q loan are often put
through an uncomfortable cross-ex-
animation. Thus there Is often 4 lat
ent antagonism to the banker. not
only on the part Of the masses'' but
often on the part Of wealthy business

pictured as having monopoly" Of
credit, which is thought somehow sin
lister. though it may mean no more
than the similar statement that the
dentists have monopoly Of pulling
teeth. Banking and credit operations
seem to most people rather intricate
and ghostlike: they have only q vague
