Moses’ Traffic Survey Shows Marked Contrast With D. C. Traffic policemen not in uniform are used comparatively little fn Cleveland, Philadelphia, Chicago and Boston. Police departments of most large cities frown upon the use of ununiformed traffic policemen. Very little angle parking is per- mitted in the cities named, except on a few streets, while in some cities parking is allowed on one-way strects only on the right side. These are among the conclusions reached by Arthur C. Moses of Wash- ington, who has sent out question- nafres to a number of cities seeking information of value to the traflic sit- uation in Washington. Mr. Moses espe- clally sought to find out if policemen not in uniform were used to any great extent; if “staggered” parking, an idea originated by him in Washing- ton, had been considered by the po- lice authorities of other cities; if automobiles were allowed to nose in to the curb in parking and various other trafic considerations. Cut-Out Ban Enforced. In all citfes, Mr. Moses was in- formed, the law against the use of the muffier cut-out is enforced, and all citles have a regulation against the unnecessary use of & siren to call persons to a window from an automobile. The latter two form a pair of the most prevalent nuisances in Washington, Mr. Moses declared in his letters, particularly the unmuffied engine. A certain make of taxi cab operates With an auto- matio spark advance, and even when throttled down, makes a nolse not unlike the engine of a large truck, he said, while the frequent and un- necessary use of an electric horn in circumstances not connected with the running of a vehicle causes much annoyance to Washington residents. Philadelphia, according to a letter from George W. Fritz, director of traf- fic, has found one-way streets offer the best means of speeding up heavy traffic and is considering making all streets in the city one-way traffic arterfes, while Chicago, with i(g heavily congested loop district, has found the one-way street in which parking is strictly limited as to time indispensable in the handling of the heavy traffic. Parking Violators Arrested. While in Washington vehicles are allowed to stand two abreast for a limited period, most other cities take a definite stand against such parallel parking, Mr. Moses was informed, ar- resting all offenders against the par- allel parking laws. All four of the large cities in the class with populations of nearly or over a million persons reported that licenses are revoked for proof and conviction of driving while drunk, and that the courts co-operate to the fullest extent in enforcement of the law. Boston's police chief said jail sentences and fines of from $25 to $50 are common, while Philadelphia’s traffic director declared that the Police Court judges ara co-operating “very nicely,” especially for speeding and reckless operating, imposing the maximum fines in most cases. The {investigation developed that Washington's fatality rate from au- tomobile accidents in 1923 was low compared with other cities. Chlcago refused to give the number of per- sons who met death in auto accidents,’ while in Cleveland 164 persons were killed for the same year. In Boston 149 persons were killed and 5,141 persons injured in traffic accidents for 1923. Philadelphia Force Large. As compared with Washington's very small squad of motor cycle policemen, Philadelphia, although a very much larger city, has many times the number of traflic policemen on duty. Director of Traffic Fritz sald there are more than motor cycle | patrolmen in the motor traffic dis-| trict of the city, a number of patrol- men mounted on bicycles in the vari- ous districts and outlylng sections, while there are 120 mounted patrol-| men in the central and produce sec- tions. Boston, however, has but one- fourth of 1 per cent of its policemen mounted on motor ecycles, although none of them are in plain clothes. Ten per cent of the police force of Cleveland is mounted, Martin A. Blecke, deputy commissioner of traf- fic, said, while in Chicago, a city of more than two and a half million per- sons, there are but 80 motor cycle policemen and none on bicycles. The Washington investigator has a scheme for staggered parking on one- way streets which he believes would be of value in solving the parking problem. His idea is that one side of| the street in each block should be| left clear for parking not to exceed| 10 minutes, the east side on one| block and the west side on the other of a one-way street north or south. This would permit merchants the use of one side of the street for loading and unloading vehicles for a short time and would do away with a busi- ness vehicle parked parallel to an- other at the curb.
