OTHER ITEMS.

Levy On Large Estates
Also Reached.

Washington. Republican senate
leaders in a series of conferences
agreed upon tentative tax revision
program which they believe will close
the principal gap within their party
ranks in the senate and at the same
time prove acceptable to the republi-
cans in the house of representatives.
Main points in the programme are
an increased maximum surtax rate
from 80 per cent to SO per cent and re-
peal Of the tax on freight, passenger
and Pullman transportation. In addi-
ton it is proposed to repeal the $4,000
exemption allowed corporations, which
would mean an additional 100000
of revenue from corporate sources;
retain the capital stock tax, estimated
to yield 75,OOO00O 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 maximum
of 40 to SO per cent on estates in OK
cess of 500, 900. 600. The present
maximum is Is per cent on estates OF

Problems of the navy men who are
members of the American Legion and
policies affecting naval ex-Seryice men

ference of the naval affairs committee
of the Legion in Chicago this fall. The
meeting has been called by Edward E..
SpaffOrd, New York, chairman of the
committee. who will announce the
date of the conference later.
THE fact that there were eight
times as many men in the army as
there were in the navy during the
World war mas tended to minimize the
