UP) The house approved the tux bill con ference report. 221 to 08, last niylit and sent that measure, carry iug with it hopes of adjournment of congress tonight, to its final barrier the sen ate. The compromise tax plan which broke the long deadlock between house and senate conferees yesterday, was swiftly approved by the machine-like house after brief debate. It went to a senate where sharply divided sentiment and a disposition iu some quarters to filibuster against it, presented a troublesome problem lor congressional chieftains determined to send the measure to the White House and adjourn congress tomorrow night Senate Tied Up The senate, where unlimited depute often develops adjournment complex ities, was already tied up right by a filibuster against the equally vitnj treasury-postoffice appropriation bill. Leaders were confident that this tan gle would be settled without inter fering with adjournment plans. Soon after the report was brought up in the house. Rep. Samuel B. Hill (D-Vash.) who handled the bill as chairman of a ways and means sub committee explained it before well filled galleries. Representative Trendway (R-Muss.) ranking minority member of the ways and means committee, arose o,t once to assuil it as "the most indefensible thing ever to come before this con gress." Opposition Cited Answering Trendway,. Chairman Boughton (D-N. C.) of the wnys and means committee, told the house there were three classes of people opposing the tax bill. "The first class arc those who know nothing about it; the second, those who speak for fortified privilege and third, those who play politics with this sort of legislation and will not bear their just burden of the government's e penses." - The bill is expected to raise about $$00,000,000. The compromise called for a grad uated tax from 8 to 15 per cent on corporate income, with a surtax from 7 to 27 per cent on undistributed cor poration Turnings.

Robinson, Into the plot of "Outward Bound" is woven a cast of widely varied characters, all of them facing a terrifying experience. The ship on which they are passengers is discov ered to hflve no crew, no engine J room and no known destination. Henry, the young lover who is, along with Ann, known ns a "half-way,," puts the situation into words when he says: "Our future- here isn't Hell, it Isn't Heaver It's past imagina tion." A talented east of actors will be featured in "Outward Bound. '' They included.

'Outward Bound' will play for two nights only. ,nt Guild Hall, Friday and Saturday, June 26 nnd state chairman as his own. He held it for two years. JEED had a stormy term ae gover nor. In 1030 he come up for re election. If Land on continued as state chairman he had to be an office-holder, so for the first time his name ap peared on a public ballot. He ran for ! precinct committeeman in Iudepend- j ence. But the republican party in Kansas was split that year, and Reed, who had made many enemies by his out spokenness or lack of tact, curried London down in his own defeat. Lnn don lost the precinct committeeship at the primary. The situation wow further complicated by the independ ent candidacy of "Goat Gland Brink ley," the amazing character who by means of unlimited radio facilities had sold many Kansans on the idea that he would be just as r successful minis- I tenng to their economic woes as to their glands. In this three-way fight, Democrat. Harry Woodring, who is now assistant secretary of war, came out on top. JURING Woodring's two-year term, Lnndon surveyed the wreck of the state republican machine, and began making major repairs. He began cir culating nhout the state, meeting local leaders here, talking -with gas stntion attendants there, always conciliating, always speaking for a reunited repub lican party. j By 103:! the machine was ready to j run again, but the prospects facing! the 'Mindidnte of the republicans were no;. bright. The depression, long evi dent in Kansas, hud deepened. The Roosevelt landslide impended. "Goat Glnnd'' Brinkley, not yet completely beaten, was back in the ring. Ad ministration had been in many ways excellent. So when Lundon decided to run for governor, many of his friends wagged their heads sadly. He campaigned in his dogged, un sensationa! manner, and. won an easy victory over Lacey Simpson, his con servative opponent. It was a three way battle in November, but in a state which gave Franklin D. Roose velt a 75,000 majority, Al London came out on top by 6000. It is agreed that Brinkley drew enough democratic votes from Woodring to turn the tide. " CROM that time on he was a marked man, and one or two republican editors, casting their eyes about for a" possible presidential enndidate in 11)36, singled out the man who had done the improbable. In 1032 London was one of two re publican governors elected. In 11KS4 he was the only one re-elected. He campaigned iu more orthodox manner, being governor, but rlic amazing thing was that this time he rolled up a ma jority of 62,000, ten times that by which he had first been elected. His campaign was made strictly on the record, a record vhich has been subject to much criticnl examination, and will undoubtedly bo even more thoroughly combed now that Landon is gunning for higher political gome. Mill GIVES PHILIPPINES PLII FOR WAR DEFENSE Br R. P. CROXIN. Jr. (Associntwl Press Foreisn Staff) MANILA, Philippines Common wealth, June 2(1 C4) Mojor Uenernl DiniKbs McArtlitir. former United Slates chief of staff, gnvc tins young coinnioiinealth a defense plun today "to give pause to the most ruthless aud powerful.' fieu. Mi-Arthur, principal inilitury advisor to the Philippine government, recommended an economical set-up for "an activo nnd carefully planned defense of every foot of short line in the inhabited islands of the Archipe lago." To Cost $80,000,000 It envisages an expenditure of $S0, 000,000 during tlte first ten years of it: operation, to be appropriated in yearly installments of $S,000,000. The Philippines' will obtain complete in dependence within that period.

Ultimativc strength of the regular army will be alxtut 030 officers and tioOO men, the general snid. The re serve corps is to be trained under "universal military service," in schools and out, at the rate of 40.000 a year. After his report had been trans mitted to the -national assembly.

' MacArthur Lauded Aninceonipnnyir.g better called Gen eral MacArthur "one of the most fa mous soldiers of contemporary limes" and said he deserved "Uie highest military rank known in International usage." . ' The general, in bis report, asserted the plan "completely negatives any possibility of employing the army in aggressive artion and makes no at tempt to attain a more militaristic ob jective than the development of each island in the Archipelago as a citadel jf defense strength."
