rE war is on!
The opposing forces of unromantic maturity and the
kids who want to have their winter sports prolonged, clashed
Monday and the kids won, temporarily at least.

attention,' the streets department earlier that day had

who had turned on the water had

off the water, and nothing re

Planning Commission Takes
Up Problem at Meeting
Monday Night
Approval o f the requested
change of cone for property In
the vicinity of Church street and
Highland avenue, where there is
a small business district, was in
dicated by the city planning and
zoning commission Monday night,
although the petition was return
ed to the city council with a rec
ommendation that some changes
be made in it.
The commission suggested that
the change from cone one, res
idential, to zone three, business
district. Include the eight lots
nearest to the Church and, High
land intersection, two lots on each
corner; and that just north of
this property a strip be added to
the zone two area beyond, so that
there would not be an isolated bit
of sone one left there.
The change is desired In order
that the cleaning and pressing es
tablishment there may be alter
ed and enlarged. Businesses in
this district were built up before
the zoning law went into effect.
Proprietors of a shoe repair shop
adjoining the cleaning plant had
filed a remonstrance.
The commission voted unfavor
ably on a change to zone three
desired for Saginaw street be
tween Owens and Miller, holding
that It Is a residence district even
though a greenhouse is situated
there. It was recommended that
the person in whose behalf the
petition was filed, attempt to
work out his problem In some
other way.

Technical Victory Conceded
On Minor Point of Pro

By FRANK HA VI LAND KING
Associated Press Staff Writer
LONDON, Jan. 27. (AP)
France today gained a technical
victory on a point of procedure
for the formal agenda of the five
power naval disarmament confer
ence after a meeting of the chief
delegates at Number 10 Downing
street.
What actually happened was
that after nearly three hours of
keen discussion, the delegates en
deavored to settle part of their
disagreement by invoking the
alphabet , and under its auspices
France, by precedence over Italy,
wag granted the right to propose
discussion of the French plan for
limitation of naval armaments by
total tonnage instead of by cate
gories of snips.
Italy Forced to Wait
On Ship Tonnage Issue j
This is expected to produce a
compromise on the global tonnage
proposals satisfactory to all the
powers. Meanwhile, Italy's desire
to plunge into the question
of maximum and minimum fleets
for each country must wait.

To Gain Basis of Levies
In Loop District
rmCAGO. Ja!n. S7. (AVi
A resolution was adopted by the
board of review today holding
that the assessment of property
in Chicago's loon district had
not been made on the proper
basis.
The board was directed, there
fore, it announced, to make a
survey of valuations for assess
ment purposes.
The resolution was based" on an
opinion by Roy Massena, attorney
for tne board. Authority lor tne
survey is provided by statute, the
board said. City and county offi
cials hesitated to comment nntil
they had learned more of the
plan, but all predicted that the
action, if held valid, would add
indefinitely to the 20 month de
lay in collecting taxes.
"The board of review believes
that this Is necessary in view of
the many statements that nave
been made publicly and privately
regarding the valuations placed
upon loop property for taxation
purposes," a statement issued by
the board said. "The board be
lieves, however, that this Dlan
should be consummated by sensi

men who are thoroughly familiar
and widfelv exnerlenced as to real
estate valuations In the loop and
in otner parts or cmcago ana
Cook conntv and that its plan
will tend to btinsr about a con

as it would be possible intelli
gently to do.

MEXICO CITY. Jan. 27 (AP)
An alleged plot by adherents of
Jose Vasconcelos, defeated candi
date for the Mexican president,
to assassinate Pascual Ortiz Ru
blo, blow up several public build
ings in Mexico City and seize the
administration in the confusion
was bared tonight by Chief of Po
lice Valente Quintana.
The chief of police 6ald the
plot had been frustrated with ar
rest several days ago of 19 per
sons, two of whom had been re
leased. Others he said had con
fessed. In July 1923 General Alvaro
Obregon was assassinated within
two weeks of his election to the
presidency. " Senor Ortiz Rubio,
within a few days after his elec
tion, November 17th last made an
extensive visit to the United
States, from which he only re
cently returned.
Threats Not Carried
Through at First
There were reports shortly af
ter defeat of Senor Vasconcelos
that he would head a revolution
against the government of provi
sional President Emilo Portes Gil.
but as the weeks passed and the
movement did not materialize it
was assumed he had decided to
accept the verdict of the polls,
which gave an overwhelming vic
tory to Senor Ortis Rubio.
Senor Vasconcelos charged his
adherents had been Intimated at
the polls and prevented from vot
ing and he cited peculiarities of
the Mexican election laws to sup
port his claims.

13 Month Arrangement
Better. Portland Man
Tells Chamber
It is almost certain that the
13 month calendar, with 28 days
in each month and the days of the
month always falling on the same
week day, will be in use begin
ning January 1J1933, members
of the Salem chamber of com
merce were told by Elmer John
son of Portland, Oregon's best
authority on the subject, at the
Monday noon luncheon. ,
Far from being a visionary idea
of a few individuals, the 13 month
calendar is backed by the Interna
tional chamber of commerce and
most of the members of the Pan
American union, and Is being con
sidered seriously by the "League
of Nations.
The opening of 1933 has been
selected as 'the t ime for the
change, as January 1 that year
falls on Sunday. The first day
of each month will be on Sunday,
and one disadvantage is that the
13th is always Friday, Mr. John
son said.
There is one extra day in the
year, and it will follow December

of market road No. 90, east of Li

court Monday to the East Liberty
Telephone company. The peti
tion, entered by P. J. Judd, pre

line an additional four tenths of a
mile along market road No. 90.
The line number of the Liberty
Telephone company Is listed as
the 108 line. At the present time
there are eight - parties on the
