Capital Considers
Traffic Devices 10
Meet BIackout
White Lines to Guide
Pedestrians and Cors
Nay Be Pointed

Emergency traffic arrangements
which will become necessary if and
when Washington has air raid black
outs, were considered yesterday by
group of District officials. Nc
final action was taken, although
tentative plans were made for a
variety of moves.
Defense officials are planning q
trial and complete blackout of. the
National Capital within two or three
weeks-unless necessity requires an
emergency dousing of all lights be-
fore then. They hope to be able
to lay careful plans for extraordi-
nary police and other protection be-
fore the trial is made.
Tentative plans for traffic safety
in blackouts, however, are being de-
veloped which would range from
painting of special white lines for
the guide of both pedestrians ano
motorists.
Shields for Signals.
One question considered was how
to shield illumination given by the
traffic control signals. Tentative
plans call for placing extra shields
over these light, but municipal Off
cials say 1t might be months before
such metal shields could be obtained
and installed In case of need of
course. traffic lights could be shut
off entirely and traffic direction left
to Washington police.
For a more permanent program
however, it is contemplated that
white lines be painted on the streets
for the guidance of pedestrians and
motorists; that white lines be paint
ed on the curbs and for division OF
sidewalks to prevent collision Of
pedestrians; that front bumpers and
tenders of all automobiles be paint
ed white. and that special films be
placed over automobile headlights
so that while they might be seen
by nearby pedestrians and motor
lists, their lights would not be visible
TO airplane pilots overhead. Also it
was proposed that specially dimmed
lights be provided for street cars
and buses for the same purposes.
Automobiles Cautioned.
Some officials thought it might
take anywhere from three to five
months for provision of necessary
equipment and facilities for such
programs, but others said they
might be obtained earlier.
Several days ago. when the mu-
nicipal authorities were considering
partial blackout orders in the light
OF emergency needs, warnings were
issued that in view OF reduced IL

should use extraordinary caution
so as to avoid collisions or possibili-
ty of running down pedestrians.
