BY A. ]. DRISCOLL
Citizens Associations Editor

O-~~-~-@~
The Washington Board Of Trade
committees on bridges and streets
at q joint meeting yesterday, voted
to support the Georgetown Busi
ness Mems Association in a pro
test against the closing Of Key
Bridge to private vehicular traf
flo during improvements to the
Virginia side of the bridge.
Support Of the trade group was
sought by spokesmen for the
Georgetown merchants. who told
Of severe loss and damage to bust
ness by diversion Of traffic. They
claimed this could be avoided by
construction Of a ramp at the
south side Of the bridge at an
approximate cost Of 5000, which
both committees favored.
CITE ACT OF 1916
e was contended an act of
Congress, passed in 1926, gave the
District Commissioners complete
Jurisdiction over the bridge. They
were not consulted regarding the
closing, which was ordered by the
Bureau of Public Roads.
Announcement was made that
the bridge would be closed to all
traffic from z p. e.. Saturday
night until AIS p. m. Tuesday, to
permit the Capital Transit Com
pany to make track changes.
Protest also was made concern
ing the placing Of detour signs at
Washington Circle, which causes
traffic to avoid the business sec
tion of Georgetown.
Resolutions were adopted ap-
proving the automobile parking
meters installed in the downtown
area, with q request to the Direc-
tor Of Traffic they be extended to
other sections.
