 Horwitz Withdraws Plan
 Upon learning of the opposition on the part of number of common counqil members, to the request for authority to eXpend not more than $500 on changing the heating sys- tenn at the municipal garage, Chair man Martin H. Horwitz of the ga rage commission withdrew the peti- ton at the meeting of the council last night and said afterwards that 1t may be decided to present it at q more opportune time.
 Some councilmen were prepared to oppose the request on the ground of economy and others wanted it understood by the garage commits sion that bids must be obtained and the contract approved by the coun- ell before being awarded.
 Chairman HorWitz said the money spent for coal to heat the garage is practically wasted because it is i'm . possible to obtain results on account of the layout of the system, the boiled being in the cellar Of the cen- tral fire station with pipes under ground. The garage commissioners felt that the proposed erection of d small building 10 house the boiler nearer to the garage and the use of an oil burner was a good plan from all viewpoints and as the garage is showing a monthly profit of approx imately s2oo, they had not antici pated opposition to the petition.

Communist Motion DoWne1

Berlin, Oct. 1G P-A communist motion of non-contidence in the Prussian cabinet was defeated in the diet today by a vote of 233 to 19S.
 The defeat in the non- confidence vote helped to clarify the situation in Reich politics because the cen trists' party voted solidly for the Prussian social democrat-centrist- democratic coalition headed by Otto Braun, Prussian premier
 The government bloc showed that it would not be lured away from the establishments as the na- tional socialists had demanded anl as the peoples and economic par ties would prefer.
 AS there had been frequent con ferences between the socialist pre- mier, Chancellor Bruening and President Eon Hindenburg during the last few days, it had been ex- pected generally that the social democrats in the Reichstag would, under Premier Braun's influence, save the Bruening cabinet from a fall when a non-contidence motion should threaten that body.

maintenance of purchasing power to provide power of consumption, eff ciency in management, reduction in hours of work, use of public works to meet cyclical unemployment, a nationwide system of employment exchanges and adequate records.
 On the question of machine re- placement of human labor, the re- port said. "the very increase in the productivity of the workers, which now so often results in unemploy- ment among them, can and must be made the occasion for a greater re- turn to them.'
 The convention, in the same ses- sion, referred to it's executive coun- cil the question of unemployment insurance. President William Green and the resolutions committee both indicated their opposition to the existing methods of applying this form of relief for unemploy- ment. President Green declared that such insurance limited the liberties of the working man and that while in some European coun- tries it might have been found prac- ticable, the methods used there would not apply here.

 Captain Charlie Johnson and the crew of the Thebaud also felt the race should not have been called off in weather no dirtier than that in which Gloucester fishermen have often found their way home with cargoes of fish. .t
 Vessels to Mark Turns
 Steps were taken to prevent a re- currence of such Unsatisfactory contest. Two coast guard vessels and the Canadian hospital ship, Arras, have been detailed to stand by the markers of the 1S-mile triangular course. If thick weather sets in, the marker boats will sound four blasts of their whistles to assist the racing schooners.
 The race committees action in calling off yesterdays race was crit icized generally. Bluenose, up to the postponement. ran away from the Thebaud, leading her at one point by more than two miles. That lead went by the board while Bluenose searched for the fog hidden 1S-mile mark, but supporters of the big salt banker contended she could have run away from the Gloucester boat on their second circuit of the tri- angle.
 Both vessels were frightened of ballast for sailing in the light airs of the past week. but they were grateful that they had taken 1t aboard again yesterday. So furious were the seas that two members ot the Thebauds crew were washed overheard, and almost miraculously taken back again. One member of Bluenose's crew saved himself from going into the sea only by retaining his grip on piece of rigging.

Heavy Fighting in Parana

Montev1deo, Uruguay. Oct. 16 P- Considerable heavy fighting, it seems here, is taking place north of Castro, state Of Parana, between the south ern Brazilian revolutionary army and federal forces defending the rich state Of Sac Paulo.
 Through Castro, northward to ltarare, Intagua, and on to Sac Paulo City there runs a railroad, possession of which may mark vic- tory or defeat for the insurgents, and an intensive effort is being made to gain control of it.
 The battle thus far has been a series of engagements, rather than one big fight. So biased have been sources of information. and so re- mote the points of fighting that it has been impossible to say who is victor thus far, but reports, while crediting some federal gains, at least indicate a tenacious rebel con- test.
 Rebel Vanguard Wins
 An official revolutionary bulletin today said the vanguard of the rebel army had met and defeated a force of 1000 Sac Paulo police at Itangua, Sac Paulo. capturing 14 prisoners, and considerable supplies. 1tangua is about 20 miles in Sac Paulo from 1tarare, border point, which is near Singues bridge, scene of a federal victory Tuesday.
 The troops defending Itangua, after bitter contest. fled. the revo- lutionary bulletin said. There was no explanation as whether there was a general rebel advance into Sac Paulo through Singues. Itarare, and ltangua, or an insurgent detach- ment had turned the federal wing and cut off such federal forces as were last reported at Singues and 1tarare.
 Suffer Heavy Losses
 At Santa Ana Do Livrameno, across the Uruguayan border from Rivers, the rebel newspaper 70 Re- publicano" published a story to \the effect that the rebel position was ex- cellent and advantageous for vic- tory although they had suffered great losses. Later messages to the newspaper said that the Sac Paulis- tas had defeated the rebels. who had 400 casualties, among them dead and wounded.
 In Rio De Janeiro an official com- munique of the minister of justice said that there was nothing new of importance in the campaign against | the rebels, mention was made of oc- cupation of Passa Quatro and Sole dade, Minas Geraes, and the con- munique added that the submarine Humayta had left the capital city in order to patrol the coast. Revolutionary headquarters an- nounced that Captain Juarez Tavora, leader Of the northern revolutionary army. had crossed the loyal state of Sergipe from Alagoas. and was ad- vancing on the city of Bahia. or Sac Salvatore, capital of the loyal state of Bahia.
 A message from General Miguel Costa, commanding the rebel van guard. to Porto Alegre, said that 2s enemy wounded. and 150 prisoners among them four officers. were be- ing transported to points behind the Parana lines for safe keeping.

 The forecast for today was cold and snow, with generally fair weather to follow. Rain Predicted The sudden cold snap which held Washington and northern Idaho in its grip yesterday, seemed broken today and warmer temperatures, probably accompanied by rain. were forecast by the government weather bureau.
 The storm broke with winter in- tensity over the Cascades, hamper ing automobile traffic through the passes, particularly Snoqualmie Pass, principal gateway between eastern and western Washington.
 The snow probably will lie in the passes for several days. weather ob- servers said, and heavy frosts also may be experienced in extreme low lands for few mornings.
