The Driving Problem

To the Editor of The Times:
There are many out-of-townerS
coming to washington who say
that this is the worst city to
drive in throughout the coun-
try.
That opinion seems to have
been borne out in the past
year. Is there any better proof
of the awful traffic conditions
here than the appalling death
toll of 1876, which marks 1884,
as the "black year?"
Everybody ought to lend a
hand in making this city a
safer place in which to drive.
The District Commissioners,
the Traffic Director. Congress
anybody who has any jurisdic-
ton here-and most particu.
larly. the motorist, ought all to
do something which will pre-
vent a recurrence of the terrible
death toll of this year.
perhaps the pest remedy 1or
the huge number of traffic &C.
cidents, with their subsequent
injuries and deaths, is the re-
vocation of permits of those
drivers who figure in more than
one accident. If that doesn't
bring results, more stringent
methods should be used.
A PEDESTRIAN,
The Washington times., 1934-12-21
Statesmen, Not PeddIers

To the Editor of The Times:
I, too, favor Be-Polite-to-
Peddlers Week. 1t would prove
to the housewife and men, too,
that if they showed the least
tendency to be nice, they would
in return receive extreme cour'
tesy. There are exceptions, Of
course, but why bear down on
the rest of the peddlers?
Incidentally, we of the era
ternity" don't call it peddling-
to us it is direct selling. But
that's neither here nor there.
The point is, if we could all
pull together" there would be
much better feeling between
us.
1t seems that many housekeep-
ers have the wrong idea toward
door-to-door salespeople. We are
not looking for sympathy. but
are only striving to make a liv-
ing. Some do pull the "sympa-
thy gag" but it's old and peo-
pie are sick of it. I ask no one
to help me. If I cannot convince
you that you need and can use
my article, then I Thank you

Lost in Street Car
To the Editor Of The Times:
l am not a crusader and I
never have taken more than a
passing interest in reforming
anything or anybody, but there
are times in my life when feel
an urge to take hold of our So
called street car system by the
nape of it's neck, wrap it two
or three times around one Of its
own power poles and then toss
it into the Potomac River.
The street cars here seem to
come and go when they can,
and mostly they can't. On a
street car this morning I heard
an old gray-bearded gentleman
ask the conductor to let him
know when he got near the
Capitol-he said his mother
was going to meet him and take
him to see the Inauguration of
President Cleveland. I heard
of one man who stayed on a
street car so long that he for
got who he was and where he
lived and he had to hand tele'
gram out the window to a mes
senger boy asking the police to
come and hunt for him.
And noise! Boy, when some of
these rattletraps hit PennSyl'
vania Avenue a man sitting on
the dome of the Capitol couldn't
hear himself think.
Washington doesn't actually
need street cars in the first
place. 1t isn't laid out for them
and increased traffic in the last
few years proves it. Why not
an all.bus system, since elevated
and underground track appear
to be prohibited by the cost?
Probably the street car company
does the best it can and isn't
to blame for existing conditions,
but neither are the people of
washington, and something
should be done to relieve a situ-
alton which, l believe, is the
worst in the country.
