the senate finance committee Of
fered to the senate Tuesday a
measure more in line with President
Roosevelt's wishes.
In brief, the oft-rewritten bill
now provides: higher income sur
taxes on incomes over $1,000, leav-
ing all other income rates un-
touched; higher taxes on gifts and
estates; corporation income taxes
applied on a graduated scale wider
than one approved by the house
but not SO wide as desired by Pres
icent Roosevelt; a tax OH dividends
received by one corporation from
another; and an increase in the ex-
isting capital stock levy.
Quick Adjournment Seen
Tax experts said that, roughly.
the bill would raise about $3.50. 000,-
900. approximately the same figure
mentioned for a widely different
bill passed by the house. The bill
as originally drafted by the senate
finance committee last week has
been estimated TO raise $450,0 900 900.
Democratic leaders, moving to be-
gin debate in the senate Wednes-
day. said prospects for quick adj

Harrison D-MiSs), chairman of the
committee. In the house, where all
seats will be at stake in next years

upset by the finance committees
action Saturday in approving the
LaFollette schedule to bring 100000
new income taxpayers into the
treasury fold by reducing exemp-
tons to $500 for single persons and
$4,000 for married people.

 flakes swept by the windows as the field was approached. Delayed there for half an hour by adverse wealth. CT reports, there was doubt for a
 few minutes as to whether the plane would continue that day
 Everyone, eager for the inaugural trip to go through on schedule, was pleased when report. from Tana- na Crossing showed clear weather ahead, and Pilot Barrcws gave the word to continue. r. . At the American boundary, clouds lifted, and from there to Fairbanks the sky became increasingly clear

 AS the plane approached its des- tination the glowing sunset touched the mountains toward the coast with tints of rose, mauve and sal- mon and the Lockheed settled on the airfield at Fairbanks as the last brilliance faded from the sky.

 Territorial Representative Ather- ton also gave MT. BarroWs an ad- dress which he had prepared for Mir. Peck, printed in gilt on ribbon and bound in moosehide cover, in which he covers the epoch of fif- teen years of aviation in White horse, beginning with the first army flight from New York to Nome in 1920 to the opening of the Pacific Alaska ,Airways schedule this spring. MT. Barrows responded briefly on behalf of the company and said MT. Peck regretted that he was unable to make the inau- gural flight, but would treasure the gifts of the Whitehorse people. Conveying the greetings of Juneau, MT. Shattuck said that he hoped the people of the Canadian city would be frequent visitors in AL aska's Capital city since the new schedule made the travel distance between the cities so short.
 Promptly on time, the ''all aboard signal indicated that it was time to return to the plane, and one of the most scenic portions of the marvellous flight began.
 s. Higgins, Yukon Government Agent, of Whitehorse, boarded the plane to make the flight to Ju- neau, and though it was his first air trip, became completely aviation minded before he landed on the PAA field here.
 Leaving Whitehorse, the plane again climbed high above the moun- tains and the pilot took a direct course to Juneau, far above the snow buried peaks of the coast range, that extend for hundreds of miles in all directions. In almost unbehevably brief time, glimpse of blue water gleamed in the dis tance and the plane was flying over Lynn Canal far below.

 Fairbanks Hospitality
 From the arrival of the Lockheed Electra on the Fairbanks field last Tuesday evening, until the: depar- ture of the plane Sunday morning MT. Shattuck. MT. Hillard and Mrs. Morgan. who made the inaug- ural round trip flight, were kept delightfully."- entertained by their Inr terior hosts. Upon the arrival oi the plane Mayor Collins gave a short address of welcome and MT. Shattuck presented him with a golden key from the Juneau Cham Der of Commerce. Each passenger was given a cardboard golden heart of welcome from the newsboys of the News-iA4iner.
 The additional four days were busily occupied with luncheons, dinners and visits to points of in- terest in the vicinity. Among the outstanding events were a lunch con with Mayor Collins. luncheon at the University of Alaska as guests of Dean and Mrs E. N. Pat ty, Chamber of Commerce ban quet, visits to dredges, greenhouses, lumber yards and a ride in the dog team of Bob Busby, winner of the $l ,oO0 dog derby which climaxed the recent ice carnival.
 One of the most interesting trips was that made through the mach inc shops and hangars of the PA company. They are equipped to handle all types of repair work. and all planes are thoroughly serviced after a flight. A tremendous stock of spare airplane parts is kept on hand to replace anything needed and the shops are immediately clean. .s.s

to the comfort of passengers was overlooked by the cheerful and courteous staff of PAA, who were constantly alert to make the trip as pleasant and interesting as pos sible. Carrying out the slogan of PAA, safety, comfort and de- pendability," pilots Barrows, Rob- bins and Ames kept passengers in- formed as to the altitude and speed at which they were travelling, the stations with which they were talk ing and details of interest along the route. Delicious lunches of sal ad, sandwiches and coffee were served in the warm interior of the plane.
 The twin motors, either of which has sufficient power to fly the big plane, and the constant two-way radio communication with land sta- tions by means of which weather reports along the entire route are obtained at all times, convey a feel ing of safety that cannot be over estimated. Alaskans and tourists are now able to cross this rugged northland country in planes as swift, comfortable and well equip ped as the finest operating in the States.

 Discussing the League of Nations efforts to halt the Italo- Ethiopian war. and the fact that the United States, Germany and Japan are out side the League, Baldwin said:
 There are risks to peace in such Q move. You may ask, what risks? l reply, risks in the kind of sanctions imposed. IT sanctions of the severest kind are imposed, that will lead in evitably to a blockade, and blockades bring into the question countries outside the League.
 That is what had in mind when I said would never sanction this country's going into a blockade un-I less we were assured beforehand of. the attitude of the United States"
