The reason then, however. was
not to equalize traffic flows. but
under the pressure of gasoline
and tire restrictions--to assure
maximum operation of mass
transit Arms.
He noted that school hours
also were pushed back during the
war. But there's little likelihood
Of that now. he added, because
Of strong opposition from school
officials.
Gen Prentiss said he is not
sure the study's results-and he's
not predicting what they might
be-will "cater exactly to the
desires of the transit companies. !"
But he saids he feels any fiat
tening out of the sharp traffic
volume peaks between tbs and
9:15 am. should result in
speedier service"

900 Of them seeking parking
spaces.
A basic problem confronting
the city, he said, is whether 1t
can afford to build the bridges,
highways and streets needed to
handle such a volume.
Gen. Prentiss said some me-
tered curb parking already has
been cut back, on E, F, G and
Seventh streets. to extend load
ing areas. Traffic Department
engineers also are making con-
tinuing studies of other curb
parking streets to determine
when increased traffic congestion
might necessitate further cut
backs.
His policy on curb parking
regulated by meters, however, is
that it should be permitted any
where that the streets primary
function of carrying traffic is
not impaired, he said.
The Commissioner strongly
commended private parking op-
orators for sharp increases in
off street parking facilities dur
ing the last few years, and pre-
dicted still further needs would
be met completely by free enter
prise ventures.

d. C.Geors Up Extensive Study
On Staggering FederoIHours

The most. extensive study since
1941 of the feasibility of stag
| gering Government employees
working hours will get into high
gear at a meeting early next
/ month.
Traffic Director George Z.
Keneipp said he has been in
structed to get UP a meeting
as soon as the Commissioners
complete hearings on the 1866
budget to map plans for the big
study.
Expected to be represented at
the meeting are transit COM
panies, the Federal Budget Bu-
reau, private parking operators,
the National Capital Planning
Commission, the Regional High
way Planning Committee, the
Washington Board of Trade, the
Merchants and Manufacturers
Association and various city Of
ficials.
Brig. Gen. Louis w. Prentiss,
Engineer Commissioner, disclosed
yesterday that preliminary
studies are under way to see
whether hours can be staggered
to a greater extent to relieve
increasing downtown congestion.
Imbalances Found.
He said city officials have been
working with the Budget Bureau
for about three months and that
the Federal officials compiled
figures showing strong imbal-
ances in the time spread en-
ployes report for work.
The figures show that 23,5O0
report in the downtown area at
8 am, $4,000 at $3.50 and 27,50O
at 8 am. But the volumes drop
to $4,000 at 8:15, 1900 at 8:45.
400 at 9:15 and about 500 at
$50. At 7 am. only 1876 report.
These figures do not include
about $4,000 Federal employees
who work at such installations
as the Naval Gun Factory and
Fort McNair, outside the central
area. But many of these work.
ers drive through the central
area on the way to work, and
their impact on congestion also
will be studied.
One of the next steps to be
studied. Gen. Prentiss said, are
the committing habits-by time
of employees for private busi-
ness firms downtown. AS a
starter Mr.. Keneipp's staff will
make time checks at off-street
parking garages and will request
peak-load data from transit
companies.
Possible Base for Notifications.
Gen. Prentiss said that, be-
cause of the lack of control over
private firms, their working times
probably will serve as a base for
any notifications in hours that
might be recommended later for
Government workers.
The Commissioner pointed out
there has been no major review
of the staggered-hour question
since 1941 and 1912. when work.
ing times got a substantial re-
shuffling. |
