Oldest Inhabitants Told of Drive for Pedestrian Rights

Edwin S. Hege Speaks On Traffic Safety At Meeting

A drive on vehicles that fall to give the right of way to pedestrians was revealed by Edwin S. Hege of the Traffic Safety Council, who spoke at the monthly meeting of the Association of Oldest Inhabit- ants last night at the old Union Engine House.

"We are making a concentrated drive to see that motorists, particu- larly cab drivers and light delivery truck drivers, making right and left hand turns at intersections, give pedestrians their rights,” the speaker said.

Sees Regulations Ignored. Pointing out that figures show

that seven out of every 10 traffic fatalities in the District are pedes- trians, Mr. Hege warned that per- sons living out of the congested areas of the city are not observing pedestrian regulations, and are

thereby setting a poor example to children.

Police picking up pedestrians sus- pected of intoxication was cited as

saving a number of lives in the Dis- trict. The speaker stated that in many cities traffic deaths of per- sons under the influence of liquor was much higher than here.

An important factor in traffic ac-

cidents, according to Mr. Hege, wa| the situation of large Government buildings on the boundary line of congested areas. “Washington with its many circles and avenues was

not planned for the heavy traffic *>f today,” he said.

Playgrounds Emphasized. Basing his statistics on figures

compiled by a safety survey of the American Automobile Association, the speaker warned the group that pedestrians over 50 years are five times as liable to suffer traffic fatali- ties as children of school age. Among the work yet to be done by the safety council is a greater utili- zation of playground areas, he said.

Members were shown a series of large charts illustrating the speak- er's talk. John Clagett Proctor pre- sided at the meeting.
