CITIZENS DEBATE.
N|CHTPARK|NGBAN
Favor Granting "Reserve''
Spaces in Front of Pro.
fesSionaI Mems Offices.

The Sixteenth Street Highlands
Citizens Association last night ar
rived at a compromise after strong
debate on ban on all-night parking
when a resolution requesting that
the Traffic Department arrange for
granting reserve parking space in
front of entrances to professional
mems offices, such as physicians, was
unanimously Endorsed.
Urging the group to adopt resolu-
ton asking for ban on all-night
parking, Jesse Pawling said: I'VE
used to have the cleanest streets in
the world, but during the past two
years this condition has changed.
There are so many cars parked on
the streets at night that 1t is impos-
sible to clean the streets properly.
A ban on night parking cannot be
enforced Immediately but must be
done gradually. Until something can
be done to accomplish this, recon-
mend that the 18-hour limit that we
already have be enforced"
Supporting Pawling, ]. P. Turner. a
veterinarian, said: People have to
carry injured animals several blocks
to my Office because there is no
parking space vacant in front of
my Office"
Directors said that there are too
many cars in the District for the
amount of parking space available
off the streets.

ELDR|DGE URGES
AUTO INSPECTION
Says Compulsory Measures
Have Been Benefit in
Other Cities.

Results obtained by cities which
have adopted compulsory automobile
inspection measures emphasize the
need for similar legislation for the
District, M. o. Eldridge, assistant
traffic director, told the Southwest
Citizens Association last night.
The system originated in Memphis,
Tenn, he declared, and from 1888
to 1885 the number of non-fatal
accidents in that city decreased from
1874 to 1,010 or 43 1-3 per cent per
year. Fatal accidents decreased from
SO to A. annually, or IL per cent, he
said.
Faulty lights are found to be the
most numerous, with bad brakes
running a close second, and improper
wheel alignment third in the list of
defects found in automobiles, each of
which can cause fatal accident,
Eldridge said.
Refers to Bill in Congress.
He referred to bill in Congress,
already passed the House. to provide
such inspection in the District, saying
other communities have found it is
impractical to turn this inspection
over to private service stations and
garages.
He declared that the ideal solution
Is to construct three stations which,
when equipped, may be maintained
by bi-annual inspections at the rate
of so cents year. A dollar would
be required from each motorist for
the first year, Eldridge asserted, to
finance the construction and equipping
of examining stations.
A resolution reiterating previous
action supporting the measure was
adopted by his association on motion
of Harry S. Wender, chairman of the
Law and Legislation Committee.
The Traffic Bureau should have
exclusive charge of all titles, leins
and other encumbrances on auto
mobiles, Eldridge stated. Under the
present system. car may be bought
from a finance company and before
paid for second lein may be obtained.
The car may then be sold, he
pointed out, with the understanding
the purchaser has only the remaining
W lltdhC w ellC 1l1ldItCC
company. The new purchaser, how
ever, without his knowledge, has
become liable for the payment of the
second lein against the car. 80
To Guarantee Titles.
If the Traffic Bureau is placed in
complete charge of the registration
of all membranes against cars. he
declared, I'VE would then be in a
