man approached him to wish
him a happy New Year. Mr.

Shift in Duty Hours,

On Main Streets Due

The Metropolitan Police De-
partment is about to put a strict
clamp on traffic offenders.
Duty hours of 200 policemen
assigned to traffic will be shifted
to tighten enforcement during
; accident-prone hours. All police
precincts will be instructed to
keep a sharp eve on streets with
a high number of traffic mis-
haps. it was learned.
Also police will be told to
watch night spots for patrons
who are potential drunk drivers.
Deputy Police Chief Howard
v. CovelI is expected to issue
this afternoon an order aimed
at reducing the mounting traffic
death tolls this year.
Types of ViolatOrs
Inspector William Liverman of
the Traffic Division said he has
recommended the new strict
policy to Deputy Chief Covell.
Police will be ordered to look
out for traffic violators who ex-
coed speed limit, fail to yield the
right-of-way to pedestrians. cut
in and out of traffic lanes, drink
while driving. and fail to give
full time and attention to driv-
ing. Inspector Liverman said
these offenses were responsible
for 80 per cent of the traffic &C
cidents.
These streets he listed as most
accident prone:
Fourteenth street from the
Highway Bridge S.W. to Upshur
street NV: New York avenue
from Seventeenth street NV.
to Bladensburg road NE: Six
tenth street from K street
NV. to Roxana road NV, and
Florida avenue from Seventh
street NV. to Fourteenth street
NE.
Traffic officials have become
acutely concerned over the fact
that % persons have died in
traffic accidents so far this year
compared with Is for the same
period of 1855. Inspector Liver
man noted.
He said traffic officers will be
alert "a hours a day every day
of the week for traffic violators.
But, he said, more men will be
assigned from 4 pm. until 2
am. hours than during any
other time of the day.
Drive on Pedestrians
Pedestrians will be arrested as
we'll as drivers for violations in
the new drive. Inspector Liver
man said Fourteen pedestrians
have died in traffic so far this
year. he noted.
Many. he said. aren't aware of
traffic regulations. Many don't
know that the motorist has the
right-of-way unless a pedestrian
crosses a street with a signal and
in a croSsWalk, he said.
Inspector Liverman also has
scheduled a meeting next Tues
day afternoon IN the Accident
Investigation Unit Offices with
officials from nearby armed serv-
ices bases to discuss the problem
of the.lncreased number of serv-
icemen who have been killed in
the Washington area in traffic
accidents this year.
