Under the plan the present

closed and two 20-foot wide roads
would be built on each side Of II

EaS1hound Jefferson traffic wish

boulevard would proceed Past-tRe
present intersection and turn
right. circling around and then
through the present underpass.
The area for making left-hand
turns would be extended and a
traffic light erected to control this
movement. All pedestrian traffic
across jefferson would be ellmi-
mated, the walkers being forced by
chains to use the pedestrian under
pass. the stairs Of which would he
replaced by a gently Sioplng ramp.
BY these means the traffic sig
nal for westbound auto would be
eliminated and the notorist would
be able 10 drive through the inter-
section without a stop
The committee also directed
that as soon as possible, perhaps
within two weeks the police de-
partment change the present signs
to permit parking only on the
right-hand side Of Brush street, a
northbound one-way thoroughfare
instead OF only on the left side of
the street. which IS the present
regulation.

TEMPORARY PLAN

This suggestion was made by D.
Grant Mickle, city traffic engineer
who pointed out that only a toni
porary plan is sought az this time
because of the expected construc-
ten of north and south and cross
town superhighways IN the near
future.
ut would be foolish for the
city TO spend thousands Of dol
lars building grade separations
only to have the whole problem
solved by the construction of
superhighways," Mickle said In
the meantime, however. some
means must he found TO open
the present bOttlenecks and it
seems to me that one of the
cheapest and best methods
would be TO, divert evening
northbOund traffic onto south
bound one-way streets that are
usually so deserted YOU could
shoot a cannon down them at
that time"
The committee asked for a sur
Vey Of the amount of traffic on the
SOFT HI heaffd streets amt Il report
on how and where the traffic
would he diverted. An estimate
of the cost of changing the present
signs was also requested
The committee proposal for
the construction of a cloverleaf at
the Belle Isle Bridge is designed
to do away with traffic Jams such
as on couple OF holidays last
Summer when traffic was tied up
nearly halfway around the island.

Furniture

Best Of Care
BY ELEANOR ROSS

WITH THE furniture manu-
facturers working overtime in
their endeavor to fill back orders,
it seems quite probable that stocks
will, be depleted earlier and the
shops have 10 wait for their or
ders TO be filled. So il behooves
us 10 take the best possible
care Of our furniture. repairing
promptly even the slightest DAM
age. and using care to prevent
CRIME and soil from settling.
Even If there were no emer-
gency. the axiom remains that
fine furniture, like fine clothes, re-
quires constant care Daily dust
ing and proper and regular clean
ing will keep your furniture beau
tiful despite plenty of wear and
tear.
Never place fine woods near
radiators, open fires, hot pipes or
in direct sunlight Lower the
shades during the full of the sun.
Use asbestos or other hot dish
pads on table and server tops, if
you would protect your furniture
from damage due TO heat. This is
a wise pecaution even though the
finish may be heat and moisture
resistant.

Group Backs Change
In Board Meetings
Commissioners Urged
To Let Towns Levy
Dog Taxes
By C. Staff Correspondent of The Star.

By Staff Correspondent of The Star.
UPPER MARLBORO, Md, Jan.
15.-Representatives of the Prince
Georges County Municipal Associa-
ton have requested the Board of
County Commissioners to support
legislation enabling the board to
hold alternate meetings at the
courthouse here and at the County
Service Building in Hyattsville.
The delegations spokesman, Bird
H. Dolby, requested that the COM
missioners furnish copies of assess
ment charges to clerks OF the in
corporated towns and also transfer
authority to levy dog taxes to the
incorporated towns, which would
retain the receipts. At present the
county issues all dog taxes and keeps
the receipts, using them to pay for
livestock killed by dogs.
Board President William A. Car
son pointed out that the board can
hold sessions ct HyattSville, but can
only make its decisions here. 1t
was contended that by holding
meetings in Hyattsville the COM
missioners would be more available
to the larger part of the county's
population in the metropolitan area.
The commissioners took the re-
quests under advisement.
Mr. Carson told the delegation
that the commissioners would first
discuss the assessment request with
T. w. Baxter, assessments super
visor. before making any decision.
The request to support dog tax
legislation for the incorporated
towns was based on the problems
created by stray and vicious dogs,
H. Wilson Spicknall, Hyattsville
Councilman, said. The request also
sought authority to establish dog
pounds.
Members of the delegation in
addition to Mr.. Dolby and Mr..
Spicknal included Mayor John R.
Fletcher of Cheverly and Alfred
Keir. Hyattsville Councilman.
