paying a fiat sum fixed for each
income bracket
The Senate also approved the
merging of the special 10 per cent
defense tax of the present law with
the surtaX rates. This was done to
simplify the arithmetic of filling out
a return and was accomplished by
increasing the surtax rates enough
to absorb the 10 per cent defense
levy.
Meanwhile, Senator La Toilette,
Progressive, of Wisconsin prepared
to lead a fight tomorrow or the next
day to eliminate the lower personal
exemptions recommended by the
Finance Committee, of 81 500 instead
of $4,000 for married couples, and
s750 instead of $500 for single per-
sons
Earlier in the day the Wisconsin
Senator had filed minority report,
attacking the bill as placing too
heavy load on the poor man and
not enough on excess corporation
profits and estate and gift taxes.
He said this afternoon he prob
ably would not attempt to change
the excess profits schedule. but
would try to raise more revenue from
estate and gift taxes in lieu of the
lower personal exemptions. Both the
House and Senate committees re-
tanned the exemption of $4,000 on
estate and gift taxes. Senator La
Toilette plans to move its reduction
to s25 900, which, he said, the Treas
ury recommended.

Right-of-WaY Privilege
Given Second Pipeline

President Roosevelt today conferred
on second private pipeline COM
pany the right to acquire by eminent
domain right-of for supply lines

July, the President gave to the
Southeastern Pipeline Co. the right
to acquire before June 80, 1943, land
necessary for construction of oil lines
from Port st. Joe, Fla, to point

A similar proclamation issued last
week gave to the Plantation Pipe
line System clearance for a line from
Baton Rouge, La, to Greensboro,

United States Attorney Edward M
Curran, as Amateur Baseball Com
missioner here, ruled this afternoon
that the Heurich Brewers team
should represent the National Capt.
tai at the National Amateur Tourna-
ment at Youngstown, Ohio, starting
Saturday.
Mr.. Currans decision was handed
down after the Brewers protested
the eligibility of Jesse Frailey, Naval
Air Station pitcher, who defeated
them in the final game of the city
championship tournament. The
Brewers charged Frailey had not
participated in the necessary five
league games with his team during
the regular season to qualify for
the tournament
The playoff, involving all league
champions, was conducted on a
basis whereby two defeats elimi-
mated a contender and the Brewers
won their first game with the sail
ors. The ineligibility of Frailey
under national amateur rules auto
matically gives the Brewers that
game, which, in turn, would elimi-
nate Naval Air.
Participating in the protest hear
ing were w. P. Griffith, tourna-
ment supervisor and federation Sec
retary; 1t. w. T. Axline, represent
ing the Naval Air Station, and E. w
Flester, representing the Heurich
Brewers.

Kofmk Cavalry Drives
Spearhead Into AImat
Defenses in Arkansas
But Assault Boot Attack
Is Voided by Umpire
As Illegal Till Friday
BY JERRY T. BAULCH,
Associated Press Correspondent.

WITH THE SECOND ARMY
ON THE ARKANSAS-LOUISIANA
BORDER, Sept. 3-Cavalrymen of
the Kotmk Red Army in surprise,
pre-dawn thrust today drove spear
head across the Ouachita River into
Almat shore defenseS in Arkansas.
Assault boats carried the dis
mounted I'd Cavalry across the wide
stream that had been barring the
Red offensive and sWiftly-laid
pontoon bridge then brought horses
and artillery across.
But this thrust was nullifled later
when I'd Army officials ruled the
maneuver void and had the cavalry
men move back across the river. 1t
was announced that the river may
not be crossed until September 5.
While the 9th Engineer Battalion
was putting the bridge together just
north of the Louisiana border, the
horsemen on foot struck at the flank
of the 7th Army Corps 35th Division
to the north.
The crossing was augmented by
faxed attempts farther upstream to
draw the Almat forces of Maj. Gen.
Robert C. Richardson. jr., into a
horseshoe bend where they would
be trapped by the 14th Cavalry
actually making the effort
I moved in the attacking column
with Maj. Walter Burnsides, second
squadron of the 14th Cavalry. In
blackness broken only by moon
half hidden by clouds, we rode for
hours through some of the most
jungle-like swamp in the South,
filled with towering oaks and spruce
clearly marked by centuries Of floods,
Horses slithered through mud made
thick by hours of rains, and showers
fell even as we moved.
It seemed as if warfare had gone
back a hundred years, when the
parent cavalrymen of the Second
gained name as the premier horse
organization of the United States
Army fighting Seminole Indians in
Florida's SWamps.
At the rivers edge, the young
riders dlsmounted, slung their rifles
over their shoulders and pushed off
from a sandy beach.
Then heavy trucks filled with pom
toon equipment were brought up.
The horse artillery arrived on the
shore and the heavy rs nm. weap-
ons of the cavalry, designed espe-
cially for such work, laid down a
protecting screen of fire against an
enemy counterattack. Soon the
bridge was completed and the horses
were led across the narrow path
way and then the artillery followed.
With the only main highway
across the river in South Arkansas
as their goal, the troops set out to
secure the bridge so their trucks
could have clear path to the 35th
Division protecting Eldoradc.
Meanwhile, the infantry of both
armies fought a pitched battle SO
miles north at Camden.

McCarran Urges Capital

Earlier Story on Page A-1.)

Earlier Story on Page ALL
The votelesS condition of WASH
ington makes it imperative that the
people be kept fully advised on their
municipal affairs at all times, Chair
man McCarran of the Senate Dis
trict Committee declared this after
noon, commenting on the decision
of the Commissioners not to make
public departmental budget esti-
mates this year.
In a community where the people
have no opportunity to check
through the ballot box the actions
of their public officers, it is es-
sential that all information possible
concerning their affairs be available
to the people at every step" Senator
McCarran said
He emphasized that he believed

Cincinnatn-Yankee Stadium, Oc-
tober 6 and 8.
If ST. Louis wins the National
League flag one day will be allowed
for travelling between the second
and third games and another be-
tween the fifth and sixth, putting
the third. fourth and fifth contests
back to October 4, and 6; the sixth
game back to October and the
seventh game to october 10.
One Flat Schedule.
Judge Lands turned down a sug-
gestion by Larry MacPhail, Brook
lyn Dodgers president, that the
schedule for the first four games be
changed, if Brooklyn wins in the
National League, to have the first
one in Yankee Stadium, the second
and third in Ebbets Field and the
fourth and fifth in the stadium.
This arrangement would put the
Saturday and Sunday games in the
stadium. with its huge seating ca
pacity of more than $4,000. Ebbets
Field. Mr.. MacPhail said, can seat
only 3o421.
Mr.. Lands rejected the idea with
the statement that one fiat schedule
had to be made for whichever club
wins in the red-hot National League
flag fight.
There was considerable discussion
at the meeting over the tax situ-
alton as it concerns the gate receipts
1t was pointed out that in Cincinnati
or st. Louis State taxes would be in
volved In addition. Mr.. Lands told
the delegates that there is a bill in
Congress at present which would in
crease Federal taxes on ball games
from 10 to IS per cent of admissions
and that this bill might be passed
and in force before the series.
Same Price as Before.
The same prices for series admis-
sionS will be in effect as in the
past-S6 per box seat, IS for a re-
served seat, So general grandstand
admission and 81 to the bleachers
Reserved and box seat tickets must
be bought in strips for three games
Ed Barrow, the Yankees presi-
dent, and Charles McManus, super
intendent of the stadium, repre-
sented the American League pen
nant leaders at the meeting. Dele
gates were invited from the second
place Boston Red Sox and third
place Cleveland Indians, but mas
much as the Yankees probably will
clinch the pennant in the next two
days, the others saved the carfare
Sam Breadon, president of the
Cardinals; Gabe Paul, secretary OF
the Cincinnati Reds, and Mr.. Mac
Phail and Jack Collins, the Dodger
business manager, represented the
National League clubs still in the
race. Although Cincinnati is Il

fight, Mr.. Paul said he came to the
