Washington, Oct. 28.-The way was paved today by Senator Reed, demo- crat, Missouri, to force a vote on the soldier bonus bill which the senate re- gently laid on the table at the request of President Harding.
 The senator introduced an amend ment to the tax revision bill provid- ing for taxes on excess profits of cor porations and for use of the revenue derived as special fund to pay bon uses to former service men. The amendment included the McCumber bonus bill, reported by the senate f- nance committee providing for five way benefits to former service men.
 Excess Profits Rates.
 ; The excess profits rates proposed in the Reed amendment were 20 per cent on corporations income up to 20 per cent of their invested capital and 40 per cent on profits above. None of the bonus privileges would become op- erative, under Senator Reeds amend ment until January l, 1923.
