HOOVER FAvORS
 TAX REDUCTION
 BE RECOMMENDED
S10O OOO0,O ,O0O MAY BE KEPT ON HAND WITHOUT FINAN-
 CAL DIFFICULTY

WASHINGTON, Sept, "A, (R)- Substantial reduction in taxes is favored by President Hoover and will be recommended at the regular session of Congress by the Treasury to become effective next March Is.
 But what form the reduction will take is thus far undeterm- il4a0. 4U was learned at the Treas urv department that the govern ment financial condition in ment's for the coming years appropriations is regarded as warranting such reduction and with this view experts will start within a week to deter mine how much of a cut should be made and how it is to be dis tributed
 Financial officials pointed to the continued prosperity and the large income tax collections as a base upon which a reduction could be made
 Since July l the government income was $921 ,237, ,506 while income tax collections up to Sep tember 20 have totalled $1,80O,000 900 an increase over the same period of a year ago of $271, ,0O0 900.
 With continued business pros perity experts feel income taxes will keep on mounting and equal if not pass those of last year They also feel a smaller margin safely be kept on hand without than the usual S10O, 100000 may be carried without complicat- ing government finances.

HAYES WILD CHUCK
MAKES JUDGE DIZZY

NEW YORK, August 31-Judge was
knocked dizzy when a wild throw from
Hayes struck him on the left temple in
the fourth inning of the first game
with the Yankees here today, but stuck
to his post until the last inning when
Boss went to first base. Joe developed a
headache later so Boss played at the
initial station in the second encounter.
Miller Higgins shook up his lineup
to cope with the Nationals lefthand
hurlers. He returned Meusel, q right
hand Swinger to left field and had
PaSchal, another righthander in center.
The left-hand-batting burst was used,
though, against Hadley late in the first
fray in place of Paschal, although Ben
in his last turn had socked homer.
Ruth's thirty-eighth home run of the
year, made in the first inning of the
second Setto, was a very solid smack
He met one of Burke'S fast ones and
sent the ball soaring into the bleachers
back of center. West rushed back to
the stand wall and leaped high for a
catch, but the ball just cleared the
screen. His thirty-ninth made in the
eighth inning of Savidge was an even
more solid smash. 1t sailed high into
the rightfield stand.
In the second inning of the second
game with Cronin on the middle sack
and Ruel on first, Sherid thought Um-
pire Dinneen had called for the ball and
casually tossed it to the official behind
the plate. The umpires had asked for
no examination of the sphere, however
and Ruel advanced on the toss, Sherid
was charged with an error because of
his mistake.
Nick Altrock and AL Schacht, coaches
and road comedians of the Washington
club, were among the missing here to-

and Walter Johnson. Undoubtedly he
has cleaned much from advice given by
President Clark Griffith, great in
structor as well as a student OF the
national pastime.
Thus equipped. Ruel should be able to
direct the Browns, or any other big
league club for that matter.
Any information of deals the Wash
ington club hopes to make is more
easily gained from sources other than
the club itself. 1t will be recalled that
the fact the club was dickering for
the purchase of Ira FlagStead, out
fielder, from the Red Sox. was re-
vealed in the West week or two before
the Washington Office found fit to admit
it. Now, in New York it is learned
that not so long ago the Washington
club endeavored to arrange a deal with
the New York club whereby Sam Jones.
pitcher. would be sent to the Yankees
in exchange for pair of players that
might have benefited Walter john
sons outfit
1t seems the New York club was quite
ready to go through with the deal until
it was discovered base ball law pre-
vented it sending to Washington the
players the Nationals wanted for Jones
The big league clubs are making deals
only with strict conformance to the
code nowadays. They have great re-
spect for the elderly gentleman with
a shock Of white hair who sits in his
Office in Chicago Judge Lands let
all know who is boss when he made
free agents Of juggled players right
and left early last Spring.
Looks as though Irving Hadley IS
ready to do some good pitching for the
Nationals again. His relief work today
was fine and his game against the
Yankees in the second engagement of
the twin bill here Thursday was really
masterpiece. Even though three of
their four runs were of the earned va
riety. Higgins team really deserved but
one tally, the first that crossed in the
opening inning. Those made by the
home side in the fifth were registered
only because hits that should not have
been hits were made. More heady play
in short right would have held the
Yanks ScorelesS for the frame.
Hadley'S control was excellent Thurs
day. He issued but three passes these
went to dangerous batters mainly be-
cause he wished to give them nothing
good to swing against His fast ball
whizzed by the Yanks often and at
times he employed a bathing curve.
The curve wasn't used often, but often
enough to let the New Yorkers know
he had one.
Hadley performed just as he did in
1927 when he was the American
Leagues most effective pitcher. He
ought to help the club greatly during
the remainder Of the campaign.
