DETROIT. Sept. 14 iJP) The
Detroit News today says that a.
submarine cable has been used by
rum runners to transport cargoes
of liquor from Canada into the
l.'nlted Kiutes. The cable, it says,
was discovered and dismantled by
border patrol inspectors yesterday.
The cable stretched from Mod
Island In the Detroit river . to the
American shore at Ksorse,
Mud island, a long narrow strin
barely rising above the mul flats
opposite lOsorse, long has been con
sidered a transfer point for liquor
cargoes, the low water about it
preventing speed boats of the
border patrol from landing there.
Rum runners conveyed their car
goes, t lie Inspectors said, in row
boats to the istand and there, from
t he pa rt ly su b merged house boa I,
hidden by brush and tree foliage,
were able to load a submerged sled
attached to the cabje. In the boat
well on the mainland were found a
diver's helmet, an air pump and a
Ifl-fnot skid. The diver, inspectors
said, was lowered Into the water
and placed the cases of liquor on a
skid, along which they were raised
to a platform. The liquor then
was placed in automobiles in an
adjacent garage and hurried out
for delivery.

Merchants Told Traffic
Rules Allow Double Park
ing While Passengers
Leaving Or Entering Cars
One Hour Parking at
Curb Week Days and
Saturday Nights.
Following a friendly and Ion-?
discussion on traffic conges
tion In the business district and
as lo the best remedial measures to
do away with it, between many
members of the retail merehams
association and the mayor and city
council members last night, the
latter body unanimously not only
rejected the. efforts of the mer
chants to do uway with the double
parking elimination of the new
traffic ordinance, but also tv sug
gested compromise measure to
make a double parking maximum
five minutes limit, and decided to
give the new ordinance a further
trying out.
While the new ordinance was not
modified, the old parking limit of
one hour, changed to a half hour
limit In the new ordinance, but
which change has not yet been en
forced, will be allowed to continue,
and the extension of the hour
parking on Saturdays from 5 p. m.
to y p. m. was decided on, begin
ning with today.
If It. is . found that the double,
parking elimination, hour parking
provision and other change Is not
feasible after a good period of trial
the city 'officials will make changes
that might prove moro satisfactory.
Stop For Pn.ssengerH
Until that time no double park
ing and., the hour parking limit
will be strictly enforced, but this
does not mean that no one can
double nark lung enough to let a
passenger off the car to enter a
store, or to permit a passenger
with parcels to enter n car, Curs
cannot wait, hut must keep on
going. For instance if a person Is
let off a car to enter a store In
purchase something, the driver
must keep on going around the
block, or elsewhere, until the pur
chase is made, and can only stop
again long enough to let the pur
chaser enter the car again.
The city officials and traffic of
ficers assert that the new ordinance
never contained a clause forbidding
stopping for passenKcrs, and that
the enforcement so far baa not in
terfered with the practice. In the
meantime the city council voted to
put on more traffic officers to en
force these rules, and to purchase
a motorcycle to be. used by one of
the traffic officers; will have park
ing places repainted, and new signs
distributed throughout the business
dlsiric.t calling attention to the
parking limit.
Ijrw Misunderstood
The discussion developed the fact
that t he double parking elimina
tion feature of the new traffic or
dinance was misunderstood by the
merchants and many of the people,
