'Streetcars Barred
From Proceeding on
Left-Turn Signal
Commissioners Order
Ban in Move to Cut
Intersection Accidents

In a move to cut down on acci.
dents at intersections, the Com
missioners yesterday specifically
prohibited streetcars from proceed
ing at an intersection when traffic
signals indicate that other vehicles
may make left turn.
The Commissioners took their
action on the recommendation of
Traffic Director William A. Van
DuZer. who informed the city
heads:
"At a number of points we have
signals to control such left turns
and by agreement with the transit
company the operation has been set
forth in the proposed regulation.
However, a number of accidents
have occurred at such places re-
Gently and the argument has been
advanced that the regulations do
not prohibit such a movement Of
streetcars and that they are under
no obligation to yield the right Of
way. .., -t-. ..
1T therefore seems necessary to
adopt such a regulation to clear up
any possible misunderstanding"
Changes in Bus Routes.
Meanwhile, the Public Utilities
Commission permitted the follow
ing changes in bus routes:
On Sundays only, between 7 am.
and pm, buses on the Connecti-
cut avenue line will operate short
terminal loop in the vicinity Of Six
teenth and I streets NV. On the
inbound routes, they will proceed
over their regular route, each on
I street NV, west on Fifteenth,
north on West Fifteenth street, east
on K street, south on East Fifteenth
street to the terminal stand. On
the outbound route, they will go
from the terminal, south on East
Fifteenth and west on I street and
over the regular route.
On the Anacostia- Congress Heights
bus line the company was authorized
to divert from the regular route
along Nichols avenue at South Capt.
tol street and operate buses south
and southeast on South Capitol
street and north on Livingston road
to an off-street loop at Livingston
Manor The service is designed to
provide transportation to several
new housing projects in the area.
Seek to Save Mileage.
To conserve bus miles the COM
pany suggested modification Of
their Route Az Of the Anacostia-
Congress Heights bus line to permit
operation via First street Sc. in
stead of Nichols avenue and South
Capitol street, to Atlantic street.
At the request of the company, the
PUG also granted a rerouting dur
ing the afternoon rush-hour period
route of the Anacostia- Congress
Heights bus line to permit buses to
utilize the stop at the terminal stand
of routes Az, "A and AS, on the
east side of Tenth street, near Penn
sylvania avenue, by operating east
on Constitution avenue to Tenth
street, north on Tenth, thence east
on Pennsylvania along the regular
route.
The PUG also gave the Smith Liv-
cry Service permission to operate

3 Gas Dealers Called
For Hearings; Bogus
A Coupons Found
First SnroIE Denomination
Counterfeits Make
Appearance Here

Counterfeit A gasoline coupons
have made an appearance here,
District Office of Price Administra-
ton officials disclosed yesterday
after announcing that eight filling
station operators will be called for
hearing tomorrow in Municipal
Court on charges of dealing in
counterfeit B, c and T rations.
National OPA has estimated that
only l per cent of all counterfeit
coupons in circulation are AS. The
bogus coupons discovered here bore
the Endorsement of an out-of town
motorist, officials said. They were
the first to be brought to- light
locally.
Thirty-five retailers charged with
overdrawing their ration accounts
at local banks have been served
notice to appear at hearing
Tuesday.
Meanwhile, OPA enforcement
officers noted marked decline in
gasoline black market dealings here
as a result of a check made of
about 25 per cent of the city's sta
tions between March / and %. Dur
ing this period, experts examined
l62, 1000 gallons worth of coupons
and found 2,l25 gallons worth were
counterfeits. The bulk of these
were c. coupons, officials said.
They estimated that approximate
ly $4,000 gallons of gasoline a month
are moving through black-market
channels here. This is less than Q
per cent of the total supply.
Dealers are finding it unprofit-
able to buy phony coupons from
peddlers," an official said. "They
know that their operations are be-
ing watched and that we can trace
back their deals" The spokesman
stressed that some counterfeits are
being passed by motorists on un-
suspecting station attendants.
One of the dealers ordered to ap-
pear tomorrow in Municipal Court
before OPA Hearing Commissioner
Clifford Snyder is charged with
dealing in counterfeits worth more
than 1000 gallons, and second
dealer with more than 1000 gallons,
the agency said.
