SENATORS To .
ADOPT HOUSE
TAXPROV|S|ONS
Melons Proposals Strapped, G.
o. ., Leaders Fall Back on
Lower Body's Measures.

The Administration majority OF
the Senate Finance Committee is ,ex.
pected to fall back upon the House
tax bill today in the preparation OF
revenue revision measure to be
reported to the Senate when that
body reconvenes on September 81.
1t having been settled to discard
several of Secretary Melons latest
tax proposals. Senator Penrose, OF
Pennsylvania, the committee chair.
man, and his Republican associates,
now plan to accept some. of the
salient House provisions, including,
I. Repeal Of the excess profits tax
as Of January /, 1922. ...
2. Reduction Of maximum surtax
rate to 80 per cent as Of January
l, 1922. ~ ...
8. Repeal Of the transportation tax
as of January J.. 1922. ....
BY their action, the Penrose forces
hope to avoid clash Between the
Senate" and House, and to prevent
the bill from being tied up indefinitely
In conference after II passes the
upper chamber. H.. ...
Four OF MELONS tax proposals are
still to be definitely acted upon:
/. Increase of corporation income
tax Of Is per cent as Of January I.
1921.
2. Tax on proprietary medicines.
perfumery, and cosmetics of the
manufacturers or importers selling
price. as of January /, 1922.
8. Eliminate the capital stock tax
as Of January /. 1922.
4. Decrease insurance tar 80 per
cent as Of January I, 1922.
1t is not believed. however. that
any part Of the new tax program
Mellon submitted to the committee
last Thursday will have any great
weight with its members in deter.
mining how the Senate version Of
the tax bill shall be written.
Senator Penrose hopes to have the
majority bill completed and voted
upon in committee by Friday At the
latest. Treasury experts are already
engaged in drafting II. and its major
proeisios may be decided upon finally
today.

Some Fields Make More Than
SO Blu. and Averages are

With ideal weather conditions the
big machines are nipping away at the
largest wheat crop ever grown IN Lma-

With only one week gone of the pc
riod Of the harvest season, an exact es-
innate of the average per acre in the
Athena Weston district cannot be
made, but there are a number of 50
bushel reports, with better than As
bushel yields being the standard in
this immediate vicinity.
That the crop is also Of excellent
quality is guaged from the fact that
numerous samples OF white hybrid
have scaled the test at 60 pounds
Threshing conditions were never
better. The grain ripened even, with
the result that when the machines
started up Monday, there were few
fields tina: were not ready for thresn
