Aay idea that the United States army experts will advise the American dele- 4*tion to the conference on limitation of armaments to propose the Rboli- tloo of poison gases can be dismissed as oat of the question. President Harding in his invitation to the other powers pointed out that “It may be found advisable to formu late proposals by which in the Interest of humanity the use of new agencies of warfare may be suitably con trolled.

Washington. — Corporations would be required to pay excess profits‘taxes for another year under a decision of the senate finance committee, which finally approved the provision In the house bill repealing these taxes as of next January 1, instead of last Jan uary 1, as recommended by Secretary Mellon. The committee also inserted a pro vision In the house measure repealing the capital stock tax, effective next year, and adopted an amendment in creasing the corporation income tax from 10 to 15 per cent, instead of 12% per cent, effective January 1, 1922. These represented the major decis ions reached at two sessions, al though it was said officially that the committee practically had decided to amend the house bill so as to con tinue the tax on express packages and oil transported by pipe line. Whether any jmrtion of the taxes on the trans portation of freight and passengers will be retained after next January 1 will depend, .Chairman Penrose said* upon a report to be made by the treasury as to the savings in expen ditures expected to be made this fiscal year by the various government de partments. _ mw iM-ln* out of «««.

Washington.—Scant promise of any material decrease in the gross amount of taxation to be levied during the next calendar year is held out by the amended tax bill, which Senator Pen rose, republican, Pennsylvania, chair man of the senate finance committee, and his administration associates com pleted. It to believed that between 33,200,- 000,000 and 33,400,000,000 in revenue is provided by the- Penrose bill, al though an exact estimate has not been made. It was estimated that the house tax bill would provide 32,960,000,000 for the next calendar year. A tax of approximately $30 is laid upon every man, woman and child in the country for the present fiscal year by the bill. One of the eleventh-hour provisions adopted was an amendment by Sena tor Calder of New York imposing a tax of 36.40 a gallon on all distilled spirit% withdrawn from bond, except that used in manufacturing.
