keneipp 10 Support
Extension Of 2-Hour
Fringe Parking zon.

Extension Of the boundaries of a
two-hour fringe" parking zone will
be recommended to the Commits
sioners by Trafac Director George
E. Keneipp.
This was announced yesterday fol-
lowing a meeting In his ONCE at
which two citizens testified on the
necessity of the extension north and
west.
The zone now Is bounded by Con-
stitution avenue. Fourteenth street.
Twentieth and N streets NV. The
recommendations are to move it
north to r street and west to Twen-
ty-hrst street NV.
The two who spoke at the meeting
were Walter r. WATSON, 2107 H street
NV, president Of the West End
Citizens Association, and c. E. Sim
mons, 1851 Massachusetts, avenue
NV.
Mr.. WATSON said that an Arlington
County man had parked his car in
front of his home for two weeks
while he went on vacation and
that George Washington students
and apartment jewellers in that
area used all the available parking
space in his neighborhood 50 that
it was impossible for friends to find
parking place while visiting him.
He recommended that the two
hour parking area be extended from
Twentieth to Twenty-third street.
Mr.. simons said that, while he
realized there are more cars than
garages, q man would be a fool to
buy q car and leave it out on the
street.
Mr.. Keneipp said he had received
many complaints from residents in
the area between N street and r
streets that they are unable to park
In front Of their houses because OF
the all-day parkers.
The sentiment seems to be over
whelrning that the two-hour parking
be extended to r street and Twenty
first street, and I will 30 recommend
to the Commissioners" he said.
