RIO DE JANEIRO, Oct. 27.-Forj
two hours today forces of the pro-
visional government battled against
a regiment of revolting military
police and communists who sought
to fan dissatisfaction in the result-
ing excitement.
When it was over, with the gov-

ernment in control, more casual-
ties had been tallied.
For a time the outbreak threat-
ened to become a menace to the
military junta which on Friday
ousted President Washington Luis
and set up a provisional govern-
ment, in the meantime awaiting
the arrival of Jetulio Vargas, rebel
generalissimo, to take control.
Police Start Conflict.
The military police regiment
started the conflict and took over
the central police station, firing
indiscriminately. Firemen and city
police at first were called to combat
the revolters, their ranks quickly
augmented by armed citizens.
Soon forces of the regular army
double-timed through the streets
or rushed up in motor trucks. They
threw up barricades of sacked flour,
beans and sugar, around the min-
istry of war, the central police
station, and in the foreign office,
and also in the gardens along the
bay near the Gloria hotel.
Communists Join Melee.
Soldiers, sailors, and marines
manned the defensive, while mili-
tary airplanes flew overhead, some
of them acting as observers and
others bombing the barracks of the
revolting military police.3
In the meantime the commun-
ists, who attempted to lead riots
protesting the city's food supply,
obtained firearms and joined in the
general melee, firing indiscrimin-
ately.
A number of the casualties were
plain clothes policemen who at-.
tempted to leave headquarters to
combat the trouble.
The revolt was over in two hours,
as the rioters had no chance after
the strong government forces were
unlimbered against them.
POLLOCK TO HELP -
ABSENTEE VOTING
Arrangements Can Still be Made
to Cast Ballots by Mail.
Prof. James K. Pollock, of the
political science department, last
night offered to interview any stu-
dents in regard to absentee voting
in the election on Nov. 4.
It is still possible for Michigan
students and students from nearby
states to register and arrange to
cast their ballots by mail, Professor
Pollock said. In former years such
arrangements have been made at
the offices of political parties in
Ann Arbor. Professor Pollock may
be reached in the political science
office, 2031 Angell hall.
"I will be glad to interview any
students regarding the use of their
vote," Professor Pollock declared.
"However, the time is getting short
for students whose residences are
very far away."
Time will be saved in arranging
the absentee voting by getting the
facts first. Professor Pollock will be
able to tell what information will bel
required in communications to local
election commissioners.

President Predicts Substitution
of Good Will for Suspicion,
Competition.
(jv lssociated Pr)ss'
The end of competition between'
nations in naval construction was
foreseen yesterday by President
Hoover, Prime Minister MacDon-
ald, of Great Britain, and Premier'
Hamaguchi of Japan, in a world-
wide broadcast marking the begin-
ning of effectiveness of the London
Naval treaty.
The three spoke from the capi-
tals of the signatory powers shortly
after the instruments of ratifica-
tion had been deposited in London.
Asserting that the treaty, which'
for the first time binds three ma-
j or naval powers to limitation of1
all types of fighting vessels, mark-
ed a step forward in international
cordiality. The three spokesmen of
their countries expressed hope that
France and Italy, which left the
London conference after they were
unable to agree upon a tonnage
ration soon would join in signing1
the pact.
Predicts Confidence.
"Relinquishment of competitive
building among the three great
naval powers with its consequent
contributions to the security of the
worldis the greatest significance
of this treaty," President Hoover
said.
"If the limitations now establish-
ed can be maintained we may look
forward with assurance to the fact
that further conferences will find
it easier to bring steps in reduction.
Never again must a race in naval
armaments be allowed to develop."
The treaty was described by the
President as "fair to all and dan-
gerous to none" and substituting
neutral trust, goodwill and confi-
dence for suspicion and competi-
tion.

"It is my most earnest hope," Prime
Minister MacDonald said, "that the

been proceeding between France

BIG TEN FORBIDS
CHARTY GAME
Northwestern, Notrc Dame to
Meet at Dyche Stadium.
(Ifv -Issocte(d I're's)
BLOOMINGTON, Ind.; Oct. 27.
-Dr. W. J. Moenkhaus of Indi-
ana university, chairman of the
Western Conference committee
on athletics, announced today
the Big Ten has refused the re-
quest of Northwestern university
.to transfer its football game with
Notre Dame Nov. 22 from Dyche
stadium at Evanston to Soldier's
Field, Chicago.
The proposal had been ad-
vanced, and agreed upon by the
two schools, because of the in-
creased seating capacity of Sol-
dier's Field, with the plan to
make the game a charity benefit.
Dr. Moenkhaus issued the fol-
lowing statement:
"I am not in position to ex-
press the consideration that led
to the negative votes, but I am
sure there was no lack of appre-
ciation of the merit of the cause
to which the extra proceeds were
to go. The faculty representa-
tives were no doubt influenced
not so much by the factors in the
present problem as by the effect
the granting of this request
might have upon the considera-
tion of other proposals involving
the waiving possibility of other
Conference rules."

EMPLOYMENT PLAN
15 Industrial Centers Held Up

Begins Campaign.
SEES BRIGHTER FUTURE
Bv Associated Press)
NEW YORK, Oct. 27. -Programs
to combat unemployment already
undertaken by 15 large cities were
held up today as models for the
rest of the country by Col. Arthur
Woods, chairnian of the President's
emergency committee.
He urged other cities to study the
programs already worked out by
New York, Detroit, Boston, Phila-
delphia, Flint, Chicago, Cleveland,
Toledo,'St. Paul, and Milwaukee, in
the belief that they might find in
one of them the plan that would!
best meet local conditions.
The outstanding feature on the
programs he outlined was the prin-
ciple that the unemployed man
should be given a job instead of
merely a loaf of bread.
Until the time that every man
competent to work has a job there
must be relief, he said, but the real
problem is to find the job. He sug-
gested that it ought to be a job that
really needs to be done, not one
that is artificially created.
Colonel Woods is not pessimistic
about the outlook. He believes con-
ditions are better now, taking the
country as a whole, than they were
in 1921 when he headed President
Harding's employment commission.
But in spots, conditions are worse,

Rockne Says Notre Dame Style
of Play Draws Crowds.
w(B Associated Press)
NEW YORK, Oct. 27. - Knute
Rockne can win ball games with-
out his famous shift just as he has
done so often in the past, but if
the rule-makers ever should outlaw
this movement entirely he will quit
guaranteeing to fill stadiums from
one end of the country to the other..
Riding the high tide with an-
other superlative Notre Dame team,
perhaps the greatest he has , ever,
ieveloped, the Norwegian master of
the ready wit is in a happy mood
these days. He feels rather deeply
about the regulations that have
brought the shift to a full stop with
at least a second's halt but the last
laugh is not on him.
"Notre Dame can get along with-
out the shift," he declared in a
round table discussion before the
game at Pittsburgh. "We can stop
10 minutes on every play if neces-
sary, as the referee warned us we'd
have to do once, but there won't
be much color in that kind of a
game. We can win without the
shift but we won't draw the crowds.
The color will be gone."

GUESTS TO NUMBER 900
New members of Michigan's fac-
ulty will mingle with the older
instructors Tuesday- night,' Nov. 4
in the Union ballroom, according to
an ,announcement issued by Prof.
Everett S. Brown yesterday after-
noon.
Professor Brown, who, along with
Prof. Earl V. Moore and Wells I.
Bennett, composerthe committee
for the reception, has completed

the first to be held at the Uni-
versity since 1923.
More than 900 invitations were
sent out yesterday to the faculty
members of the University, along
with an official list of the new
'members. An informal receiving
line lead by President Alexander
Grant Ruthven and Mrs. Ruthven

suggestion of several faculty mem-
bers and University officials. Pro-
fessor Moore is in charge of music
for the affair, while Bennett will
handle the decorations.
Shaw Illustrates
Script With True
Shavian Action
(By Associated Press)
ELSTREE, England, Oct. 27.-
When George Bernard Shaw calls
for a fight in the script of one of
his plays, he wants action. He dem-
onstrated this personally today dur-!
ing the filming of his play, "How
He Lied to Her Husband." The 74-
year-old Irish dramatist literally
rolled about on the floor with the
leading man of the film in an effort
to show him how a Shavian fight
should be constructed.
Mr. Shaw is taking an active in-
terest in the production of his play
as a movie, which is in progress at
this time, at the Hollywood of Eng-
land.
The film has its climax in a fight
between a lady admirer and her
husband, and it was in this scene
that the dramatist personally took
a hand today.

DETROIT, Oct. 27. - Governor
Fred W. Green, James O. Murfin, a
Regent of the University of Michi-
gan, and the athletic board of the
University of Detroit, were co-oper-
ating today in an effort to bring
about a football game between Uni-
versity of Michigan and University
of Detroit in Ann Arbor on Thanks-
giving day.
Proceeds, estimated v a r i o u s 1 y
from $100,000 to $250,000, would be
devoted to relief of the unemployed
in Detroit.
Receive Announcement.
But just as it seemed definite
progress-was being made toward ar-
ranging a game, there came an an-
nouncement tonight that the facul-
ty committee of the Western Con-
ference had refused to authorize
transfer of the Notre Dame-North-
western game from Dyche stadium
in Evanston to Soldier's field in
Chicago. That, in effect, checks
plans for making that game a spec-
tacle for unemployment relief, for
the proposal, accepted by both
schools, had been for receipts for
sale of all tickets over $50,000, the
capacity of Dyche stadium should
go to charity.
Governor Fred W. Green yester-
day presented a formal request to
the University Board in Control ofE
Athletics for permission to schedule
a University of Detroit-Michigan
football game on some date in the
middle of December. Governor
Green telephoned to the office of
the President yesterday afternoon
and immediately made a formal re-
quest to the board for the post-
season game, the returns from
which are to be used for charity
work among the unemployed.
Board to Act.
Action by the board will take place
within a few days, it was announc-
ed last night, although several ob-
stacles of technicality wi'll remain
should the game be approved. The
major objection to the Detroit-
Michigan contest lies in the Big Ten
ruling that no post-season games
shall be played by members of the
Western Conference unless by con-
sent of the other members. In case
of assent to the proposed game, the
Board will petition the Big Ten
official body and ask for a vote
throughout the member schools.
Other major objections f r o m
Michigan's standpoint center about
the necessity of conditioning of the
Varsity team for another month
after the close of the regular sched-
ule. Detroit plays a game Nov. 29
and a post-season tilt on Dec. 7 is
also scheduled.
According to present plans, the
money received from the contest
would be used entirely for relief of
unemployment during the winter
months. More than $300,000 is hoped
to be raised by this means in case
the game is approved.
