TO COST LIFE OF
100 OLD TREES

Sacrifice of 100 old linden trees
along Massachusetts Avenue was
revealed at the District Building
today as the District Commission
ers advertised for bids for the new
Thomas Circle underpass.
Capt. H. C. Whitehurst, director
of highways, said the trees would
have to go, but that they would
be replaced as far as possible by
young trees.
300 DAYS FOR WORK
The Commissioners yesterday
approved plans for the underpass,
which has been a subject of con-
troversy for several years, and an
nounced that bids would be opened
on November %. The underpaSS
will be completed in 300 days.
Citizens in the area protested
construction Of the underpaSS,
carrying their complaint as far
as the White House. The Presi-
dent, however, would not inter
vene, and District officials went
ahead with their plans under an
appropriation of $530.000 to begin
construction.
WILL WIDEN AVENUE
The trees will have to be sac
rificed, Captain WhitehurSt ex-
planned, to make room for widen
ing Of Massachusetts, Avenue.
Traffic on the avenue will be di-
rected under the circle, and Four
teenth st. traffic will pass
through the circle, which will be
increased in diameter by approx
mately 18 feet.

Official Conference Will
Be Held

Legal and practical difficulties"
in connection with the plan Of
pedestrian control were cited to.
day by Corporation Counsel
Elwood H. Seal.
Pointing out that he "favors the
objective of protecting pedes-
trians," he said, however, that
there are certain issues both legal
and practical, which must be
faced in any plan involving the
question of right-of-way in streets.
CONFERENCE PLANNED
At the same time, conference
of municipal officials to be held
prior to the public hearing
ordered yesterday by the District
Commissioners, was announced in
an effort to coordinate all avail
able information on the subject Of
pedestrian control.
This meeting, it was explained,
will be designed to garner facts
so that the public will be well in
formed on the issue prior to the
public hearing. No date for either
the public hearing or the confer.
ence has yet been fixed.
Corporation Counsel Seal, re-
ferring to the difficulties which
must be faced by District officials
in pedestrian control, asked:
For instance, how shall we
treat motorists making right
and left hand turns on the
proper signal?
MAY TRAP PEDESTRIAN
How can we protect pedes.
trians who start across a street
on a green signal and then are
caught in the middle?"
He suggested three questions
which might be considered by the
District officials at their confer
ence. They are:
A pedestrian light, on which
all vehicular traffic would stop.
Additional policemen to pro.
tect pedestrian movements
across streets;
Or a regulation placing re-
sponsibility entirely on the mo-
torist when both motoriSt and
pedestrian have the right-of-way.
Seal cited a decision by Justice
Josiah A. Van Orsdel. in the Court
of Appeals in 1928, in which
magistrate placed the responsible.
ity on motorists and said pedeS-
trians have the right of way at
all times on all cross walks and at
control crossings. He declared
pedestrians have the right of way
to epter the crossing when it is
opened and that right of way
continues until they have reached
the opposite curb"

colors, but woe unto the one who
tints milady'S face with a color
not approved by Uncle Sam.
The Is approved colors now on
the departments list have been
placed there over a period Of 30
years. They are used to color
