PLANNED To STOP
RECKLESS DRIVING
Rigid Ordinance Providing for Ii
cense for Those Running Autos Is
Ready for Council.

An ordinance even more strict than
the one originally proposed by Aid
Rutter for the regulation OF automO-
biles ana licensing OF drivers will go
10 the council within a week or two
It's terms were agreed upon in q
meeting of the council committee on
ordinances, Wednesday afternoon, and
the conclusions OF the committee were
approved by Robert X. Davis. repre-
senting the Detroit Automobile Deal
ers' association. and John Gillespie,
secretary OF the Detroit Motor club.
While some opposition Is expected
the committee believes that the ordi-
nance will pass with little amendment.
It's purpose is to penalize reckless
driving and TO do away with "joy-rid.
ing"
Everyone who drives a car in De-
troit, ii this ordinance is passed, will
have 10 take out a license To do So
except he or she be the owner of the
car. Even members of the owners
family must be licensed or be in dan
ger OF fine.
There are two classes OF drivers.
PROFESSIONAL CUduHGuiE VIII pay % lOi
license and must pass an examina
tion as to running steam, electric and
gasoline cars; other persons who drive
cars, OF which they are not the own
ers, must pay 81 for a license and
stand an examination to show their
fitness to drive the particular kind
OF car To be used. The license fees
will go to pay for the expenses OF
the examinations. Professional driV-
ers will get badges, while amateurs
will have certificates.
II is the theory of the measure that
the owner OF a car will learn how to
manage il and will be careful with his
own property. All others who may
wish 10 drive car must first prove
their fitness by examination. No per
son under 16 years OF age may get
license The members OF an owners
family who may get certificates TO
drive his OF her car are husband,
wife. son or daughter.
All licenses and certificates may be
revoked for reckless driving. A
penalty up to 800 may be imposed for
driving an automobile without a
license and also prison sentence.
A special sign will be given out for
doctors machines to distinguish them
from others, the idea being to make
this In the form OF Red Cross.

ALDERMEN NOW SEND UP
VAIL FOR MORE SEWERS
Latest Flood Furnishes Another Evil
cence That Present Capacity is
Not Sufficient.

Since complaints began to come In
Thursday morning from flooded cell
lars in all portions of the city, the
aldermen have become interested as
rarely before in getting improvements
for the sewer system.
Detroit has outgrown her present
sewer facilities and some big new
sewers must be built at once, says
Aid William Gutman, who introduced
resolution in the council few weeks
ago requesting the city engineer u
prepare plans for a big trunk sewer
TO parallel that on Woodward-aye.
"The present trunk sewers simply
are not big enough to carry off the
water from the northern portion of the
city. They do we'll enough until q
time of heavy rainfall or snow comes
and then they fill up and there Is
trouble.
I'VE should have another big trunk
sewer cut Cass-ave. or Twelfth-st. az
Cnce to take the load of the Wood
ward-ave. sewer. 1t will cost about
$500, 900, but II is better To spend that
now than suffer damage right along

er OH other big sewers may be need
cd also, but this one Is an immediate
necessity"
Aid. Grindley and HARPER. OF the
Eighth ward. are going to try to get
an appropriation for the extension OF
the Trumbull-ave. sewer, from Seldom
ave. to Calumet-ave., to drain the Calu-
met-ave. sewer. This is a five by sew
en-foot sewer that runs from Eigh-
teenth-ave. TO Woodward-ave. 1t filled
up Wednesday night and all the Gel
lars of residences adjoining IT are
flooded. All the minor sewers north
of Calumet-ave. drain into this one
sewer. so that II was quickly over
loaded II will cost about $4,000 70
