By NATHAN ROBERTSON
' (Associated Press Staff Writer)
WASHINGTON, June 20. 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.

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

puts the situation into words when
he says: "Our future- here isn't Hell,
it Isn't Heaver It's past imagina

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.

PHILIPPINES PLII
FOR WAR DEFENSE

MANILA, Philippines Common

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.
Principally, the plan embraces a
fleet of small and- fast torpedo boats
for coastal defense, an air corps based
mainly on fast bombers, and a reg
ular nrmy and reserve corps.
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.

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."
