Senate Votes
Byrd Plan TO
Cut Spending
Body Also Rejects
Toxes on Radio
And BilIbourds
Earlier Story on Page A-1)


The Senate this afternoon ap-
proved as part of the S3,679, 300, 600
tax bill the Byrd amendment Great
ing a joint congressional economy
committee to seek cuts in nom
defense spending.
The economy group would consist
of six Senators and six Representa-
tives chosen from the appropria-
ton and tax committees of the two
houses, together with the Secretary
of the Treasury and the budget di-
rector. The aim of those sponsor
ing the plan is to cut between one
and two billion dollars from the
non-defenSe budget to supplement-
the new taxes being raised for de-
fenSe.
Pushing ahead on non-controver-
sial phases of the big revenue meas
ure, the Senate also ratified the
action of the Finance Committee IN
dropping the new House taxes on
radio broadcaSting and billboards.
The House effort to tax time sold
by radio stations would have raised
only s4,800,000 net revenue, and the
billboard tax only $1,700,000 Both
levies encountered opposition as an
initial effort to tax advertising.
After disposing of these uncon-
troverted amendments the Senate
4 n M n
hour earlier than usual-with lead
ers still hoping to pass the bill this
week.
Three or four major controversies
had been put aside for debate to-
morrow and Friday, including:
| The effort to knock out the lower
exemptions, the amendment remov-
ing the advantage now held by mar
ried persons in eight community
property States, where property may
be divided between husband and
wife on separate returns and the
Downey pension amendment.
Surtax Increases Accepted.
Without a record vote it promptly
accepted increases in the corpora =
ton Surtax rates, as follows: On
corporate income up to s25,000, 6
per cent instead of S; on income
above that level, z instead of 6 per
cent. These increases accounted for
S120, 100000 of the Senate boost in
the bill
The Senate also approved with

fed form, under which individuals

Reds Use Many Tanks
In Central Sector,
Germans Report
Fierce Soviet Resistance
Has FoiIed to Blunt Drive
On Leninerod, Nozis Soy
BY the Associated Press.

BY the AkSCCldleO FIcSSs
BERLIN, Sept. 3.-Russian forces
putting up fierce resistance to the
Germans on the central sector OF
the eastern front are using tanks IN
great numbers, authorized sources
reported today as the high command
told of fighting along the entire bat
tlefront.
One German Army corps holding
a middle front sector claimed to
have demolished 178 tanks since
Saturday.
Fierce Russian resistance, coupled
with adverse weather. has failed to
blunt the spearhead of the Nazi
drive on Leningrad, which now is
within 20 miles of the city and NOV
ing steadily forward, the Germans
declared.
Bulletin Barren of Detail.
The war bulletin from Adolf Hit
ler's headquarters was barren of de-
tail on the land front, reporting only
that successful fighting actions are
in progress" along its whole length.
Military commentators attached
great significance to reports of a
smashing victory at Luga, 10 miles
south of Leningrad, declaring this
success had eliminated one of the
major obstacles in the path of Ger
man troops trying to close a ring
around the former Russian capital
Reports from the opposite end of
the long battlefront pictured the
Black Sea port of Odessa as cut of
from its water supply and in dire
straits, but the Germans acknowl-
edged that their troops were en-
countering bitter resistance further
east along the lower Dnieper river
Military dispatches said Soviet
Marshal Semeon Budyenny' forces
on the east bank of the broad stream
were attacking repeatedly in an ef-
fort to dislodge the Germans from
the opposite bank.
The Russian air force and ar
tillery was said to be keeping the
river under heavy fire, and 1t was
indicated the Germans thus fal
have not succeeded in establishing
any bridgeheads ON the east shore
Rumanian troops were reported
cooperating closely with German
forces besieging Odessa and were
said to have been responsible for
cutting off the city's water supply
The population, of approximately
500, 900 and the large Russian gar.
rison, was described as already suf-
fering severe hardships, not only
from lack of water, but from lack
of food supplies.
Whether the Russians still were
able to provision the city from the
sea was not disclosed.

West opened the king of dia-
monds, and South won with the ace.
The king and ace of trump then re-
vealed that South was bound to lose
a trump trick. Since South was
also bound to lose a diamond, he had
to find some way of losing only one
club and no spade. That was not
so easy, for if West had the dia-
mond king-queen and a singleton
heart he could not also have the
club ace and spade queen without
having either bid originally or taken
action over South's opening bid.
South continued by leading his
low diamond, more to make West
lead than with any hope of setting
up a diamond trick. Forced to lead
black suit, West led the deuce of
spades, and dummy won the finesse
with the spade jack. Feeling that
business was picking up, South
ruffed a diamond and cashed his
top spades. Then he led a trump,
forcing East to lead clubs.
Note that the moment East led
clubs, dummy's king was bound to
make trick. But if South had led
clubs himself, he would have lost
two club tricks and thus been set
one trick South made his contract
because he paid attention to what
was not bid as well as to what was
actually bid. Vests failure to make
a bid was the clue to South's knowl-
edge that East had the club ace.

day and winner of six out OF seven
games this season, will not see ac-
ton tonight.
The locals led the Rocky Mount.
ers for better than three periods
last week, but weakened under a
Blackbird scoring barrage in the
final period to lose the game. The
Cats will be on familiar ground to-
night and will be out to get reven e
for their defeat. Last year the
same story was enacted with the
Cats winning on the local court in
the first game by an Overwhelming
score and then losing to the Rail
readers by close score in the final
moments in the return game.
Coach Bob Black will start Cliff
Owensby, who made such a fine
showing defensively in the last
game, at right forward, with Burt
Nisbett as his working partner on
the left side. Vernon Morrison will
take the middle of the floor at cen
ter with Billy Pieper and Bill
Bowen at their old posts at right
and left guard.
