VAN DUZER URGES UNDERPASS WALKS Two Major Intersections Could Be Served by Plan, Citizens Told. | Pedestrian underpasscs at congested | intersections and additional police- men were advocated last night by Traffic Director William A. Van Duzer as a solution to Washington's traffic problems. He spoke at a meeting of the Columbia Heighls Citizens’ As- | sociation, in the Fourth Presbyterian Church. van Duzer proposed construction of underpasses to cross the four corners of the street at Fourteanth street and | Pennsylvania avenue and Fiftcenth | street and New York avenue. Stair-| ways would be used to reach the street | level, or possibly escalacors, he said. | The traffic director expressed the opinion & “pedestrian lizht” would not be practical here without a 60 per cent cut in traffic Van Duzer advocated subways for| Washington but added these would | take care of only part of the conges- | tion. He said something should be | done about persons crossing in the| middle of a block. The commission- | ers have the power to cortrol this by regulation, he said, if they so de- sire. More Police Held Needed. Washington's traffic trouble is ac- centuated by the lack of evailable traffic officers at downtown intersec- | tions, Van Duzer decla At every | business intersection controlled by traffic lights, four policemen are ne_ed- ed to assure control of the pedestrian traffic. He admitted turns at inter- sections take away the pede: trian's ght-of: 4 x hours, dur- ing daytime, he declared. 37,000 pedes- trians pass at Thirteenth and F streets and 19000 at Seventh street and Pennsylvania avenue Safety zoncs, s Columbia Heights section, he told the citizens, are re not safety zones. George H. Brown, chairman of the association’s Public Safety Commit- tee, urged installation of a “pedes- trian light” system for the District. He declared there is no safety for the pedestrians while automobiles can make right and left hand turns. A resolution by Mrs. Marie Flynn Maddox was adopted reiterating the association’s stand in favor of sub- ways. The resolution commended William A. Roberts, people’s counsel, for his efforts along this line. A res- olution by Alton B. Carty was adopted as an amendment. It urged & $25,000 appropriation by Congress for the survey. J. O. Martin. Meyers. | Fifty-five pedestrians have been killed in traffic accidents in Wash- | ington this year. Sizty-five per cent of those crossed in the middle of the block—12 per cent crossed against a red light. Traffic Direc- tor William A. Van Duzer has recommended that the Commis- sioners adopt a pedestrian control regulation, whereby jaywalkers would be arrested and fined $2, and persons walking across the street on a red light be fined $1. But what does the pedestrian think? In a broadcast over Station WRC vesterday, Star reporters inter- viewed passersby at the cormer of Fourteenth and F streets. In the Jjollowing stenographic transcript of the broadcast it can be scen that the pedestrian is willing to be regulated to save lives. in the HERE is a young man. What is your name? A.

Grayson to meet the Nation's growing accident list. The Red Cross chairman, in his first radio speech since he took office, said 15,000 first aid units were to be estab- lished at service stations, traveling first aid stations were to be put on the roads and safety was to be preached | in schools and farm homes. | ““The Red Cross this month is launch- | ing an effort to minimize accidents in the home, on the farm and along the highway—accidents which last year killed nearly 75,000 persons and in- | jured millions,” he said. i “For months, the Red Cross had been mobilizing. All along the line in| hamlet and city we have organized to combat the grim specter of sudden ! death and maiming injury. “Each Red Cross chapter and branch, one in practically every county in the | United States, is expected to play a | part.” Electric (Continued From First Page. Boston; Triangle. Conduit & Cable Co., Brooklyn, and United States Rub- | ber Products, Inc., New York. The commission said that under the leadership of the Okonite Co., General | Electric and Habirshaw Cable & Wire | Corp., the manufacturers of impreg- neted paper cable, varnished cambric cable, parkway cable and rubber power cable were charged with having “concertedly adopted and maintained fixed and uniform selling prices.” Discrimination Allayed. The ceble manufacturers, the com- mission said, are charged with “habijt- ually and systematically discriminating in price, after making due allowance for the cost of transportation emong their various customers.” The com- plaint said they “exacted higher prices from customers having little or no transportation expense and accepted Jower prices from those having heavy transportation expense.” The alleged agreements and policies adopted by the companies, it was charged, have taken away from pur- chasers of cable and wire materials *“the advantages of normal competition which formerly existed.” Public utilities, city, State and Fed- eral Governments and large industrial plants were said to be customers of the companies. In the case of utilities, the complaint said that in some cases the consumers have to bear the added costs. The commission fixed November 1 for a hearing on the _Qmpmm. | about.

What do you think of pedestrian control? A. I think it should be well enforced and enforced to the limit. Q. Do they have it in your State? A. They do. Q. Does it reduce accidents? A. It does; very much so. I think it should apply especially to children. If the chil- dren were taught in school to watch out from running behind automobiles into the road, and such control as that were taught as they are brought up in the homes, I think many of the children’s accidents would be avoided.

I think it's a very good thing. Q. Would vou be willing to pay a fine if you crossed a street in disobedience to the lights? A. Yes. I believe in obeyving all laws. Q. How much fine do you think you ought to pay for dis- obeying the regulations? A. Accord- ing to what I can afford, I would say. Q. For example, Traffic Director Van Duzer has proposed a $2 fine for a jaywalker, and a $1 fine for the man going against the lights. Would you be willing to pay that? A. Yes. Q HERE is another gentleman * What is your name, please? A. Anton Foster of Pittsburgh. Q. Have vou been in Washington very long? A. I have been here at frequent inter- vals. Q. You have read that Traffic Director Van Duzer has proposed & plan to control pedestrians. Would vou favor that? A. I would favor it | if it would possibly work, but I know from experience with cities from St. Louis to Sidney, Cape Breton, that | it sometimes does not work. It is as hard to collect the fines in those cases as it is vour tags for parking. In other words, there is some way of getting around it, and the parties who are the flagrant breakers of an ordinance of that kind are the ones who probably are not familiar with the fact that such an ordinance exists. They will dive across in back of cars; they will forget the fact that from eurb to curb belongs to the motorist when the lights are in his favor, and they forget the fact, also, | that old story of the mother having a light in the window is for the pur- pose of welcoming the boy or some- body else back home. and it is the deprndents of the daddy, the fatlLer, who feel it most. and they are begging daddy, when he leaves home in the morning, to make sure that he .oes not come home a cripple. Q HERE is another gentleman * over here. What is your name? A. Fred Baldwin. Q. Do you drive a car? A. Yes, I do. Q Where do you live? A. Lacrosse, Wis. Q. You have read in the papers, I suppose, about Traffic Director Van Duzer's plan for | controlling the pedestrians in Wash- ington? A. Yes, I have, They have this plan in operation in Minneapolis. Q. How does it work there? Is it a success? A. It is to a certain extent, although they have tried fining the pedestrians and they brought up a test case and the city lost. Q. How much are the pedestrians fined out there? A. It runs from $2 to $5. Q. What is the range of fines? A. It was $2 tor walking against the light and $5 for jay-walking. Q. How long have you been in Washington? Q since you have been there? A. To some extent. Q. Have you any suggestions for cutting down the number of acci- dents? A. Cut down the number of cruising taxis. HERE is a lady who has been * driving for a long time. What is your name, please? A. Elvie Claire, Riverdale, Md. Q. What would you suggest to help traffic conditions here? A. I agree with Director Van Duzer |in holding parents responsible for children on the street. For instance, on the scooters and skates. Any child on the street with a skate or scooter, their parents should be arrested and the children should be taken to the police station until called for by the parents. That will help parents to prevent traffic accidents. Q. Do you think people should walk across the streets against the red lights? A. No, they should not. That is what the red lights are installed for, for the protection of the publicand the drivers. | out supervision the traffic regulation Q. You think there must be complete co-operation between all motorists and pedestrians? A. All law-abiding citi- zens must be law abiding and help the officers in charge. O HERE is a gentleman who has * been here quite a long while. ‘What is your name? A. W. H. Barry. Q Where do you live? A. New York and Paris. Q What do you think of the regulations in Wash- ington? Do you think they should be made to control pedestrians? A. I belleve that pedestrian regula- tion is just as important as traffic regulation. In some of the cities in Europe, without supervision of police, people have learned to take care of themselves, because if they are knock- ed down by any moving vehicle they have to get up and apologize. Q. How do conditions here compare with those in France? A. I should say that with- is ahead of ours. WHAT do you think of the traffic situation, madam? A. I think your lights and signals are not as very | well observed as we have them in New Orleans. Q. What is your name? A.| Verna Pearsol. Q. Do you drive a car yourself? A. Yes. Q What do | you think of the actions of the pe- destrians? Do ycu think they should | be regulated as motorists are? A. Yes, I do. Q What do you think pe- | destrians do to endanger themselves? A. Well, 1 think they should observe the signals more carefully. Q. Not| cross on the red light, not cross in | the muddle of the street—is that what you mean? A. Yes. Q. How is the | situation here as compared with New | Orleans? A. In New Orleans I find | | they observe traffic signals and lights very well. Q. And the accidents are fewer down there? A. Yes, they are. HERE is another lady. What is * your name, madam? A.I would | rather not say. Q. Do you live in the city? A. Yes, right now. Q. Do you | drive a car or do you walk for the most part?” A, I drive a car. Q. In observ- ing the actions of pedestrians, do you think they should be regulated and made to observe laws as the motorists |do> A Surely: there are too many| accidents, anyway. Q. What are the causes of most of those accidents? A. I think careless driving and quite | a few pedestrians walking against the | red lights. Q. What do you think oI‘ Traffic Director Van Duzer's sugges- | tion of fining pedestrians who cross | against the light and walk across the | street in the middle of the block? A. 1 think if they were fined, it would | help eventuaily. | Here is a lady over here. What is your name, madam? A. I pre- | fer not to give my name, but I am a jaywalker. and the only way to stop | me from doing that is to fine me.| Money makes people listen. HERE is a young man. What is * your name? A. Agnew, of| Georgetown. University. Q. How 1cnq have you been in the city? A. All my | life. Q. You know Washington up and down, then. What do you think of pedestrian control? A. I think the people have no regard for one another, and the people who drive cars have no | regard for the pedestrians. With 55 | pedestrians killed, in the case of more | than 40 it was their own fault. People don't watch where they are going and have no regard for one another. Q.| Do vou think it would payv to fine| some of those pedestrians who amble | all over the street without looking? | A. Yes, I think it would be good to ! do that. 1 .
