DES1ROYFRS STOP
 LANDING OF CABLE
PATROL ENTRANCE TO MIAMI HARBOR UNDER ORDERS
 FROM THE PRESIDENT.

Washington.-Five destroyers are patrolling the entrance to the Miami (Fla-) harbor, under orders from Pres ident Wilson to prevent, by force, fl necessary, the landing of cable the Western Union Telegraph Company is having laid from Barbadoes. British possession in the West Indies.
 A British cable ship, the Colonial, has been chartered by the Western Union Company to land the American end of the cable, which would con meet with a British cable from Barba- does to South America.
 At the State Department 1t was said that the British embassy had been asked to inform the master of the ship that such landing would be in violation of American law Officials said there is no significance in the fact that the vessel was British; that she probably was the only cable craft available to the American Company when she was chartered. Work on the cable line from Barbadoes was begun last summer
 Some time ago the Western Union Company applied to the State Depart ment for an executive permit to land the wire at Miami, but officials said action had been delayed pending the holding of the International Commun- ications Congress, called to meet in Washington September 15
 A British cable company now has an monopoly of cable rights in Bra zilan waters. An American concern desires to construct direct cable line from the United States to Brazil and it was said that the American govern ment desires to know before issuing the permit 10 the Western Union Com pany whether the arrangement enter ed into by the company with the Brit ish concern, the Western Cable Com pany, controlling the line from Bar. badoes to Brazil, would add to this monopoly.
 It was said that at the forthcoming International Communications Con gress the whole theory of information al communications was to be examin- ed lin very different temperament from that existing in the past.

Half Million Cars
 Manufactured b V
 Ford in Six Months

When the first six months of the Ford Motor Company fiscal year end ed January 31st. more than half million Of the sturdy little Fords had left the factory to join their three and half million brothers and sis ters on the worlds highways. And Ford officials express confidence i'll half of the million by July 31st, when their year ends.
 However, they say that a million a year is far from the ultimate in mo- tor car manufacturing, and that with the completion of the blast furnaces and body plants which Henry Ford is now building in Detroit, the yearly output capacity is bound to assume larger dimensions The present ca pacity is 100000.
 The blast furnace project on which MT. Ford has been working for the past three years will enable the Ford Company to make Ford parts from the iron ore instead of buying the iron ingots and then melting them before making into parts. At the present time there are approximately 15.O00 men engaged at the blast fur mace end in the new body plant. But it is quite probable that that number will be more than doubled once the steel mills, which will be the largest in America, begin to operate. Ford men do not attempt to place any es- innate on what the production of cars will be in the future, but point to the fact that they have not been able to supply the demand for the past ten years and that at the present time there are some 23O,000 thrilled or ders on file.
