TRAFFIC MENACE
BLAMED ON CABS
Union Taxi Association
Head Says District Has
Too Many.

One of the principal hazards on the
streets of Washington is "the abnor-
NAL and unneeded number of taxi
cabs operating carelessly and often
wantonly at all hours of the day and
night" in the opinion of officials of
the Unior Taxicab Association, headed
by Adolphe Hohensee, president.
The organization of union taxicab
drivers declares that in the metropoli-
tan area of Washington, where the
majority Of cab fares originate, the
stream Of taxicabS constitutes more
than 40 per cent of the moving
traffic and "of necessity adds greatly
to the congestion and confusion that
is usually the basic reason for acci-
dents of all types"
The Union Taxicab Association, all
of whose drivers are members of a
union affiliated with the American
Federation of Labor, suggested in the
interests of public safety and con-
venience, the limitation of the number
of taxicabs by law to that number
which a proper investigation of the
public need would indicate as proper.
1t is believed that about half of the
present number of licensed taxis could
adequately serve the public.
Simplification of traffic regulations
and the enforcement thereof includ-
ing the securing of immediate DISPOSE
ton Of most traffic arguments by
maintaining an assistant or deputy
corporation counsel at each of the
downtown police precincts at all times,
also was suggested.

Interest in The Stars safety cam

from Roy Howe Of Alton, Ill, as
follows:
Another thing that would help in

be to paint all railroad trains red.
Then they could be seen better by
such driving jackasses whose trafic

SILVER PURCHASE
MADE BY CUBANS
7,743,00O Ounces of Bullion
Being Minted in U. S.
Trade Improves.
BY the Associated Press.


Out Of the secrecy surrounding the
Treasury's silver operations came an
announcement yesterday that the
Cuban government had acquired ap-
proximately 7,743.000 ounces of
bullion.
The State Department disclosed
that the Cuban purchase had been
handled by the Export-Import Bank,
which granted sufficient credits Zap
proximately s6,00o.o00) to finance the
deal
Whether the bullion came from the
Treasury's stock was not clear. 1t
was said that the actual purchasing
had been handled by the Treasury
and the bank. The Treasury has ar
ranged to have the metal minted into
10000 900 standard pesos at the Phila-
delphia mint.
In making the announcement,
State Department officials said Cuba
needed to increase its circulation me-

dium as result Of improved economic
conditions in the island, which they
attributed to the Cuban-American
reciprocal trade pact.
rvu
The bank made similar credit ex-
tentions to Cuba for minting silver
amounting to $3,5ss. .568 In May, 1894,
and $5,o00.0 900 in January, 1885. Both
credits since have been repaid.
The Cuban announcement came at
a time when the European crisis had
increased the difficulties Of the Treas
ury buyers In keeping UP with the
policy laid down by Congress.

MORE PENALTIES
ON DRIVERS ASKED
Permit Revocation and Fine
or Jail Term in Crashes
Suggested.

Many suggestions for improvement
Of traffic conditions are included
among hundreds of letters dealing
paign now being received by The Star
Safety Council. Excerpts from some
of these letters follow:
Il would like to suggest that no
drivers license be issued to person
who is not fit to have a drivers per-
NIT. Upon the first serious offense
I would say revoke their operators
permit for one year and impose fine
of $100 or go days IN jail at hard
labor. Upon their second offense, re-
woke their permits for five years and
impose $500 fine or three years in
Jail at hard labor. think that would
break reckless driving up little.
IF We, the people of the District of
Columbia, don't help, we might as
will not have any Police Department,
because the way figure it out, it is
impossible for the Police Department
to do it all. Harry A. Davis.
II hope in signing up the laun-
dries of the city you will stress the
danger of double parking. I
drive across town every morning and
there is hardly day that 1 do not
see one or more laundry trucks parked
almost in the middle Of the street
with ample parking space at the curb.
Just too much trouble to drive in.
And what about moving vans
parked at right angles to the pave
ment on narrow StreetS-even streets
where croSstown busseS run? It's
more convenient for them to load and
unload so parked, but how about the
inconvenience to traffic?-Mrs. Agnes
McC. Evans.
Has it ever occurred to the august
council to whom this letter is ad-
dressed that a little crusading would
be most appropriate toward regulat-
ing the skating, shooting and other
wise reckless disportation of children
on the city's streets?
In support of the need for such a
crusade, let me cite you two occur
rences of yesterday. Driving west on
B street southeast stopped behind a
truck, which had stopped at Eleventh
street for the intersection. As the
truck started up to cross Eleventh
street two boys on skates grabbed the
back of the truck and toWed them
selves across that street. This oc-
Cured about pm, at time when
Eleventh street southeast is heavy
with traffic. Later in the evening
about 8 pm, while driving south on
Eleventh street southeast in the face
of bright headlights, almost ran over
two little boys skating directly to-
ward me. On the right-hand side of
Eleventh street at this point (going
SOUTH some street work is going on
that takes about half the right traffic
lane. These little boys were on the
street side of this work, skating up a
restricted through street, at night and
in the face of traffic that was partly
blinded by the headlights (about a
third of the motorists in Washington
use binding headlights), of oncoming
traffic
And may inquire in how many
cases where children have been run
over has the driver of the automobile
been held responsible?
Yours for less slaughter of Wash
ington children and for the jailing of
all negligent parents.

After driving an automobile
through the streets of Washington
since 1917, my opinion is that the
largest percentage of accidents in
which automobiles are involved are
due to congestion. Then, in order to
eliminate accidents We must relieve
the congestion of cars. This can be
done, 1 believe, by following some of
the following suggestions:
Il. All Stop signs should be of the
same color, design and by all means
the same height from the pavement.
Take down all such signs as Slow,
Danger. and all Stop signs that are
not really necessary.
20. Punish all drivers who merely
pause at Stop sign, teach them to
do just what the sign says.
''3. Enforce the regulation which
orders that all slow-moving vehicles
should keep to the right and not take
their part of the street out of the
center.
a. Have all signal lights timed so
that after getting a green light at one
corner the driver of vehicle won't
have to stop when he arrives at the
next corner some few hundred. yards
away. Time all lights so that a driver
won't have to break the speed limit in
order to get the green at the next
crossing.
IS. At certain intersections where
signal lights control the moving of
traffic 1t is all right to make a right
hand turn on the red light, while at
the biggest percentage this would be a
violation. Either do or don't make a
right-hand turn on all signal lights.
Make the thing uniform.
