TAX REVISION PLAN
 |S ACCEPTED BY
 PARTY LEADERS
Republican Leaders in the Senate Agree to Pro- gram They Believe Will Close Gap in Ranks.
Republican A. p. Leased WireJ

WASHINGTON, Oct. 6-Repubn- can senate leaders, in conference to- day, agreed upon tentative tax re- vision program which they believe will close the principal gap within their party ranks in the senate and prove acceptable to the Republicans in the house. Main points in the program are an increase in the maxi mum surtax rate from 32 per cent to 50 per cent and repeal of the tax on freight, passenger and Pullman transportation. It is proposed to re- peal the $2.000 exemption allowed corporations, which would mean an additional s60. 0.000,000 of revenue from corporate sources: retain the corpo- ration capital stock tax, estimated to yield $75,0o0,000 next year and re- peal the various so-called nuisance taxes, such as those on soda water, cosmetics, proprietary medicines and the like.
 There also was said to have been a tentative agreement to increase, the estate taxes so as to have a maxi mum of 40 or 50 per cent on estates in excess of 10O,000,0o0. The pres ent maximum is 25 per cent on es tateS or $10,0Uu,UUO.
 Most leaders are understood to have favored the committee proposal for flat tax of 15 per cent on cor poration incomes, but there was some discussion of graduated tax, with the rate 10 per cent on cor porations having an income of $50,- GOO or less yearly.
 The question of increased first class postage rates and other matters are to be threshed out at meeting of Republican members of the fi- nance committee, to be called in a day or two.
 In advance of this meeting, Sem ators Lenroot of Wisconsin, and A1c- Cormick of Illinois, aer to draw up amendments embodying the proposed changes for presentation to the com mittee Republicans. It is the plan to have the amendments presented on the floor as committee proposals with viek of expediting action on the tax bill.
 In framing their program, the lead CTS considered and rejected the 1 Shoot manufacturers sales tax plan and approved the committee proposal to repeal the excess profits tax of next Jan. 1. Active fights for the sales tax and against repeal of the l profits tax are promised. Senator Smoot gave notice today he would speak at length on his plan next week.
 I Senators Lenroot and Mccormick went over the proposed changes ir | the bill with treasury experts today and it was said later that the tota I to be raised under the bill as planned
 would be approximately the same as under the original measure, S3,324,

PERIOD OF EASIER
 CREDITS STARTING
 INDUSTRY REVIVAL
HOOVER TELLS MANUFACTURERS MA TIONAL INDUSTRY TODAY IS IN SPRINGTIME OF RECOVERY; IN- GREASE IN PRODUCTION
IRepublIcan A. 2. Leased WIrel

NEW YORK, Oct 6.-National fn- dustry today is in the early spring time of recovery, having entered the period of easier credits, Secretary of Commerce Hoover told members of the American Manufacturers Export association at their annual dinner to- night. This was marked, he said. by the rise in the price of bonds and tde fall in federal reserve and interest rates generally. He emphasized that he did not wish to be understood as saying that the country is on the threshold of boom-
 We have a long way to go to get back to economic stability" he said. We have yet to go through with much readjustment in price levels. but we are definitely on the road.
 Citing other evidence of recovery, Secretary Hoover said there had been a very definite increase during the last two months in the production of textiles, coal, steel, shoes, building materials and building construction.
 There is, in the construction in dustries," he continued. ''even a larger activity than at this time a year ago. Our exports of foodstuffs have not only been increasing. but they are also larger in volume than that of a year ago, and this indeed, without any forced measures Of tor- eign government credits"
 s'The destructive effect Of violent Fluctuations in foreign exchange. he said, was the first obstruction to American foreign trade, and until some measure of stability could be secured from month to month. there was little hope that the foreign trade of this or any other country would recover to normal.
 'There can be no hope of stability fin any of the worlds exchanges, he added, ESQ long as imitation continues in so considerable part of the world.
 T am perfectly well aware that we should not interest ourselves as government in stabilizing the budgets and establishing sound currencfes in foreign countries but unless our com mercial community is willing in some way to interest itself in the countries struggling with fiscal and commercial problems. we must expect to pay many thousand fold in the-loss of ex- mort markets and in the employment of our people. It should not be be- yond the intelligence of the human race to secure a solution of this mat ter as would result in some stabiliza- lion of the German mark. Better ar rangement of this matter must take priority if we are to see stability II any of the European currencies-
 Secretary Hoover said there hat been a great response to the recon nendation sent out by the unemploy' rnent conference and the president appeal that they should be trans formed into community action.

GIANTS FAIL TO REACH HOYT AND .GO RUN[ESS FUR SECOND TIME IN ANNUAL SERIES
Daring Base Running and Brilliant Pitching Give Tanks Second Game; 3 Errors Costly to Giants.
TRepubIIcan A. p. Leased wIre1

NEW YORK, Oct. 6-The New York Americans made worlds se- ries history here today. shutting out the Giants, 3 to O. in the second game of the struggle, leaving the New York Nationals runless after IS innings of play in the first two days of the city clubs conflict. They did it by lively work on the bases and the best pos sible use of their few hits. support ed throughout by the brilliant twirl- ing of Waite Hoyt, their young right handed star. The score was the same as in the first game yesterday, Hoyt allowing the Giants but two puny sim gles.
 Unlike the opening encounter. to- days game was played before a crowd that taxed the capacity of the Polo Grounds and let itself loose at frequent intervals in dipping out bursts of enthusiasm. It had plenty to enthuse over because the contest while a pitchers battle between Art Nehf and Hoyt, who twirled stellar ball for the Giants, was replete with raftling plays and tense moments. Pos sibly the thing that most encouraged the followers of the Yankees. looking forward to the ultimate outcome of the seriet was the splendid game pitched by Hoyt, who held the Giants to one hit up to the eighth. Never be- fore has a world series opened with two straight shutouts of the same contestant.
 So airtight was Hoyts pitching the Giants never had more than four men at the plate in one inning.

Aside from Hoyt's marvellous twirling the game revealed Babe Ruth in new role, that of the demon base stealer-a role that just seemed about as popular with the crowd as his familiar one of the home run king. The great Bambino stole second and third in rapid suc- cession in the fifth inning and his clean pilfering of the far corner was greeted with the widest denlonstra- ton of the series to date. At the bat Ruth's record was colorless. He did not once connect safely.
