Taxb Boost Indicated By Senate 
Final Total to Be Agreed Upon Far Less than Truman Demands

WASHINGTON, Sept. 29 R = An estimated tax increase of be- tween $5,450 100000 and $7.200, ,000,- 000--the third tax boost since the start of the Korean war-now is virtually assured for Americans within a few weeks.
 I The .asoaAf 1 y'i4h. csAaplet- ed action on it's version of the 1881 general revenue-boosting measure. Final passage was by 57 to 19 vote after nine days of stormy, some times bitter debate.
 The Senate bill carries $1,750,- 0O0.000 less estimated revenue than the measure passed by the House in June. Conferees from the two branches will get together next week to try to work out compromise figure.
 One Senate conferee predicted today the final result would be closer to the Senate version than that of the House probably around $6 900, ,000, ,000
 The final total is certain to be far less than the $10,000, ,000, 900 which President Truman said was necessary to balance the budget in view of heavy defense spending.

Conmie Vehicles Under Aiiatk on Korean War Front
By JOHN RANDOLP

U. s. EIGHTH ARMY HEAD QUARTERS, Korea. Sept. 29-tA- Allied warplanes today roared into dark Korean skies in pre-dawn attacks on an estimated 1000 Com- munist vehicles.
 The heavy road traffic apparently was a substitute for Red rail move ments, disrupted by heavy air at- tacks during the past six weeks.
 The main masses of trucks were spotted between Sairwon and Py- ongyang. south of Yangdok and south of Wonsan. In these areas trains normally carry the bulk of Red supplies to the front.
 Late Saturday a cold steady rain settled down over the Korean front. It blanketed out the air war, and almost all ground action.
 Except for a few scattered skir- mishes. infantry of both sides hud- dled in foxholes and dugouts, try ing to keep warm and dry.

The W ashington Merry Go Round
lC0pyrlght, i95I, by Bell Syndicate, Inc
 By DREW PEARSON

WASHINGTON = The nations capital today is witnessing the most nauseating spasm of large and petty graft since this newsman began covering Washington
 There are several reasons for this, as previously enumerated in this column, one of them being the fact that Government officials have lost their sense of smell.
 When the man at the top in government can't smell the bad odor arising from the distribution of deep freezes by his military aide, or when he defends the commodity grain speculation of his White House doctor, and tolerates airline lobbying by his chief secretary, then the olfactory nerves of those around him get dull too.
 Another important reason for the sickening spectacle of graft and favoritism. however, is the current system of political campaign con- tributions. This is something the public little realizes.
 It has now become a standard practice for both big business and labor unions to obligate Congress men. After you have made your contribution to Congressman's political campaign, you then benefit

No Advance in Freight Raies
 Alaska Railroad Decision Announced by
 Johnson; New Proposal Made Coal Shipments

ANCHORAGE, Alaska, Sept. 29-- R-Increases in Alaska Railroad freight rates which were scheduled to go into effect Oct. IS have been cancelled, General Manager John P. Johnson announces.
 Johnson said the volume of traf- fic has exceeded expectations be- tween July and September and earnings indicate the present rates can be continued for the time being without incurring deficit.
 The cancellation has been ap- proved by the Secretary of the h. terior.
 Johnson said he plans to go to Washington next week to press for greater tonnages for the railroad by federal agencies that are big ship pers in Alaska. He also said he would seek relief for the railroad from covering deficit operation of river boats with the overall revenue of the line.
 He expressed the hope that pro-
 tests against the freight rate in<
 crease will make federal agencies
 there more aware of the railroads
 problems so he can obtain more
 active assistance in increasing revenues.
 Johnson said he would also press for sale of Alaska coal to Japan which he understood was seeking 1 SOC, ,00O tons year. Japan would build unloading docks at Seward for handling coal brought there by railroad" he told group of local businessman. This would give the railroad valuable backhaul that would make it pos sible to overhaul tariffs" He cited as possible aids to road revenues the hauling of explosives for use in drilling the Eklutna hydro electric tunnel, the movement of airplane engines going to the states for overhaul, and shipment ol furniture of military personnel. Road employees were warned however. that the annual fall layoff will "go deeper this year to cut the payroll down as another step to keep expenditures within rev enues."

TOKYO, Sept 29-tR-Red China tonight asserted the United States has wrecked the Kaesong truce talks and is preparing amphibious land ings on both coasts of North Korea.
 A Peiping broadcast monitored here said the Americans plan to drive Red forces to the Yalu River boundary between North Korea and Manchuria, and to bomb Com- munist bases in northeast China.
 There was no immediate comment by LIN officials in Tokyo.
 The propaganda blast came just 24 hours after Gen. Omar Bradley arrived to confer with United Na- tions commander Gen. Matthew B. Ridgway. Bradley is chairman of the U. s. Joint Chiefs of Staff. A headquarters statement said he and Ridgway discussed military mat ters of mutual interest"
 Presumably their talks covered the course of action to be taken by United Nations forces if the stalematcd truce talks break down altogether.
 Peiping did not mention Ridg- ways proposal. made Thursday. that talks be shifted from Kaesong to the vicinity of the no-man's- land village of Songhyon. six miles southeast of there.
 The broadcast said, fin order to conquer the whole of North Korea, the American have decided to train five more divisions. drive the (north) Korean and Chinese forces to the Yalu River and bomb the Com munist bases in northeast China"
 Peiping said the commanders
 of the two natienal sNara dtvis- ions TOW training In Japan--the
 4eth of California and the 45th of Oklahoma, recently visited Korea flor . first -hand survey"
 Peiping spoke of two new U. s. fighter and bomber wings which 1t said had been recently transferred to Japan from U. s. bases, and new additions to the LIN naval forc- es in Korean waters One was iden- tified as the U s. aircraft carrier Essex. The Essex has been in ac- tion for some time.
 Bradley. Ridgway and State
 Departmentys adviser Charles Bohlen met in Ridgway's down. town office this morning. No con- ferenccs were scheduled in the af- tcrnO0n.
 Bohlen is the State Departments top authority on Russia.
 Diplomatic sources made it clear he was here to work with Bradley and Ridgway. He flew here Friday with Bradley.
 While the highly-secret talks went on, United Nations officials stood by at Munsan, Korea. They awaited Red reply to Ridgways proposal that the talks be moved from Kaesong to the no-mans- land area six miles to the southeast. The proposal was made Thursday.

Dodgers, Gianis Tied in
 National League Flag Race; Tanks Win American Leaque
By JACK HAND Associated Press Sports Writer

The gallant New York Giants, tied for first place after wiping out a 1872 game Brooklyn lead, threaten to elbow into the World Series with the New York Yankees in one of baseballs greatest comebacks.
 With the Tanks already fin" after Allie Reynolds no-hitter and yes- terday's double win over Boston, the Giants rate an even chance to charge past the fading Dodgers, 4-3 losers to the Phillies.
 Pushed into a tie by Brooklyn s loss, the idle Giants play at Boston today and tomorrow while the Dod- gers meet the Phils in two singles at Philadelphia.
 May Be Playoff
 Unless the tie is broken there will be best-of- three playoff for the National League championship, starting at Brooklyn Monday.
 The Dodger night loss almost stole the play from the Tanks third straight pennant clinching and 18th in their history. Even Reynolds brilliant no-hitter, his second of the season lost some of its luster amidst the wild confusion over the National League race.
 Indians Second Place The double Boston loss eliminated idle Cleveland, now 3lk back. but also assured the Indians of finish ing second.
 The Phillies who were staggering around at this time last year trying to win a pennant, took falr out oi the Dodgers. Willie Jones' ninth. inning single scoring speedy Richie Ashburn from second beat Car Erskine. Andy Seminick's two-rur homer in the eighth tied the score Earlier Roy Campanella's homer helped the Dodgers build up a 3-l lead on Karl Drews.
 1 Just to rub it in, an ex-Glant Andy Hansen, was the winning Phi pitcher. als4
 There were other games: Gin cinnati shaded Pittsburgh, 4-3, anc the Chicago White Sox swept a twi. night double from St. Louis, G.. and 4-3 in 10 innings. A Philadel. phia Washington night game wa postponed because of cold weather The other teams were not scheduled
