Michigan's Varsity affirmative debating team emerged victorious over Ohio State last night in its first conference contest of the sea- son.

The Senate struck from the bill the provision giving President Hoo- ver a free hand in the use of the fund, on motion of Senator Robin- son, of Arkansas, the Democratic leader. This and other amend- ments, including an addition of $5,000,000 to the $110,000,000 voted by the House, required reconsider- ation of the legislation by the House. The huge fund to be spent on a vast public improvements program throughout the nation will become available immediately upon enac- tent and final Congressional ap- proval is expected by early next week at the latest. Sponsors of the legislation assert it will give im- mediate employment to thousands. Republicans Confer. As the Democratic storm in the Senate against Mr. Hoover's denun- ciation of those advocating added relief measures subsided, the Re- publicans went into conference to seek some manner of harmony and co-operation. Earlier, President Hoover com- municated with Senator Watson, of Indiana, the Republican leader, ex- pessing a desire to send his ex- perts before Congress to back up the administration's contentions on the extent of the necessity for re- lief legislation. Watson called a conference of party leaders when discord developed in the Republi- can ranks. Some held the view that Mr. Hoover should have consulted his paity chieftans before issuing the statement he did. Others felt the party should have given a more vigorous defense to the Democratic attack. Assumes Co-operation. At the conference, Watson called the president and assured him of co-operation by the party in keep-I ing relief legislation within bounds, but also asking him to co-operate with the party on tactics to be pur- sued in advocating the relief pro- gram. Meanwhile, the Senate agricul- ture committee appointed a sub- committee to study and report on the Capper resolution to authorize distribution to the needy of 40,000,- 000 bushels of wheat held by the grain stabilization corporation. 'DEN' RESTAURANT DAMAGED BY FIRE' Fingerle Estimates Loss From Water, Flames at $15,000. Fire which broke out from some unknowni source at 3 o'clock Thurs- day morning in C. J. Fingerle's Den restaurant at 1108 S. University avenue, caused damage, estimated by Fingerle at $15,000, before fire- men could check it. The building is entirely covered by insurance. According to Fingerle, no one was inside when a night police patrol- man noticed smoke coming from the building. The officer immedi- ately called the fire department and Fingerle. A large part of the damage was caused by water, since the fire it- self was confined to an addition on the west side of the building. Walls and decorations throughout this part of the restaurant were drench- ed by water from the fire depart- ment's hoses, which flooded the en- tire building.

RHEE SUSPENDS AL GUARANTEES GNATIO0NHINTED New Rule to Continue Throughout Island for 60 Days. RIOTINGSPREADS Professional, Business Men Pledge Support to Students. (By Associated Press) HAVANA, Dec. 11.- Amid new disorders by students and with ru- mors buzzing through the city that he soon would resign, President Machado today suspended consti- tutional guarantees throughout the whole of Cuba. This is tantamount to martial law and is similar to the suspension decreed in Havana and environs which ended last month. Both were authorized by Congress after much debate, but whereas the first decree was confined to the capital and for only 20 days, the suspension in- voked today will run for 60 days over the entire island. Student Riots Continue. Student activities not only con- tinued but increased, meanwhile, and the sound of firing was heard in the streets as police attempted to break up demonstrations. Num- bers of business and professional men, graduates of the national uni- versity, pledged their support to the rioting undergraduates. The president's action followed upon a secret meeting of the cabi- net at which American Ambassador Harry S. Guggenheim was reported to be present, and it 'was known that important developments were expected. Havana, at the same time, was swimming in a flood of rumors. There were numerous reports' the president would resign, another that he already had placed his resignation in the hands of the su- preme court, and still another that Ambassador Guggenheim had sum- moned two American cruisers from the United States naval base at Guantanamo. All were denied. Attorney General Resigns. Complicating the situation, and adding to several cabinet changes during the week, was the resigna- tion of Miguel Angel Campa, as at- torney general. The latest developments climaxed a summer of unrest in Cuba, with disorders and demonstrations grow- ing since the Congressional elec- tions of last month. Hundreds of students, who are prime movers in all the disturbances, have been ar- rested in various parts of the island. PIANIST TO APPEA Jose Iturbi Will Present Sixth of Choral Union Programs at Hill Auditorium. Jose Iturbi, Spanish pianist, will present the sixth of the series of Choral Union concerts at 8:15 o'clock tonight at Hill auditorium. "Mr. Iturbi," said Dr. Charles Sink, president of the School of Music, "came to America for a few concerts last season, and was looked upon as the musical sensation of the year. At his debut recital in Carnegie hall, a furor was created and he was obliged to respond to encores and returns to the stage many times, and it was nearly mid- night before the audience finally let him leave. Later he appeared with the orchestra in New York and Chicago, where similar ovations were had. For his Ann Arbor con- cert he has chosen the following numbers: Sonata in A major, by Mozart; Etudes symphoniques, by . Schu- mann; Waltz, two Etudes and Polo- naise by Chopin; Ballade and Rhapsody by Brahms; L'Ile Joyeuse by DeBussy; Navarra by Albeniz; and El Vito, written in his honor, by Infante.
