The committee also heard M. M.

Steen, the school board's building superintendent. He told council that in its vast building and remodeling program that the schools had not yet reached the point in their heating plant development where they felt they could meet all provisions of the new ordinance. Councilmen said the tests of the ordinance, even if council" passes it at once, would not start until November.

The fourth of a series of talks projected to get the six-months-old "islarure out of here by next week broke up last night. Governor James insisted that Democrats go Alone with a "little WPA" as part of the compromise. The Democrats fatly refused. Republicans twiddled their thumbs today in the absence of James who holds the key to further negotiations. They plan to adjourn the Senate for the week tomorrow, there was six months grace after day in a special hearing granted by council to railroad executives.

Mechanical engineers and others told councilmen they wanted to be "helpful and co-operative" but they felt council did not want to pass an ordinance with features which seemed "impracticable of enforcement." Representatives of four or five railroad systems joined in the discussion but council took no action. Xo New Development The discussion centered particularly on Section I-B, dealing with one minute emission of dense smoke. The railroad men, headed by R. H. Flinn, assistant to the general manager of the Pennsylvania, said the regulation should be modified because it was all but impossible of attainment under most operating conditions.

In response to questions from that in some of its "new installation provisions." In addition to Mr. Flinn the railroad groups included A. T. Mitchell, J. B.

James departed for poston Sunday night to attend a conference of governors.

He is not expected to return before Thursday.

Minority Leader Harry Shapiro, who sat in on the talks, 'reported'' to the Senate that Democrats agreed to desert the Allegheny county organization and Accept James' compromise hospital plan. The governor proposed to assess Pittsburgh and Allegheny county each $2.50 per week per mental patient ($1,300,000) until 1543 and to postpone transfer of ail other county hospitals until 143.

Put when James injected his WPA plan, the whole deal fell through, Shapiro said. And with it went immediate hopes for adjournment, WPA Attitude Rapped "So far as I'm concerned, the minority leader said, "we start from scratch." Shapiro rapped the attitude of James toward the WPA now as compared to his attitude during the 133H campaign. Shapiro recalled that the governor then flayed the setup and that former State Senator G. Mason Owlett. Republican floor leader, instituted proceedings to declare WPA unconstitutional.

Shapiro declared that the governor has proven there are no persons on relief sufficiently able-bodied to perform work relief. Majority Leader James A- Geltz retorted. "That is not the argument Mr. Shapiro used last night against WPA with the governor. "He told the governor." Geltz said, "that his objections were 'purely That Democrats did not want to see Republicans with a WPA in Pennsylvania." orrosmoN expressed Pittsburgh council's "unalterable to the state going back on its plan to take over the expense of maintaining mental patients, particularly those in the city's Mayview institution, will reach Harrisburg officials today.

Councilman Thomas J. Gallagher brought the matter up in council yesterday. He urged that the situation is gravp, from the taxpayers' standpoint, and had a resolution adopted to wire council's objections. Gallagher stressed that the present lw. unless it is nullified, would mvp Pittsburgh taxpayers $700,000 year.
