elouS, together WIN nal1 QOZen new
one-way streets. was adopted today
by the commissioners on the recon-
mendation Of Trafic Director william
A. Van Duzer and the Trafic Advisory
Council
The new bans will become effective
after 10 days. unless oficial signs are
posted sooner, officials said. In some
instances the bans already are carried
by official signs, but the traffic direc-
tor said their inclusion in amend
ments to the traffic regulations was
needed to insure enforcement.
Parking Lots Stressed.
The progressive extension of bans
on parking directed additional atten-
tion to studies Of the feasibility of
municipally-owned parking lots. How
ever, doubt was cast today by some
officials on suggestions that the Dis
trict might be able to provide all-day
parking at rate Of dime a day.
Because of the high cost of suit
able sites in or near the downtown
area, a charge of 10 cents a day
would not even produce revenue
equivalent to the taxes now collected
from such properties" said one off,
cial.
