Bu United Press NEW YORK, Aug. 18.—Assurance given President Coolidge by Secretary Mellon and Senator Smoot that a swift action of the tax reduction program in the next session of Congress was practically certain Imparted additional momentum to the forward movement in stocks at the opening today and the whole market continued to display a buoyant tone In the early dealings. Ralls maintained the exceptional heavy turnover which marked trading in this group in the preceding session. The industrial also moved ahead vigorously with the motor truch shares still leading the advance. Irregular tendencies were eradicated around noon by the resumption of aggressive buying in several Mgh-priced industrials. Mack Truck flQt another sensational run-tip, to 233%, against Tuesday's low of 220. Sears-Roobuck was also urgently bought, attaining its best levels since 1920 at 198. Buying of highpriced issues was said in brokerage circles to be mostly for the account of insiders. Present price levels in stocks of this kind are out of range of the average speculator.

Pittsburgh leads in the National League because it has the edge on Xew York and Cincinnati, its two most dangerous rivals. > Washington is within striking distance of the Athletics because It has won nine of the fourteen games played with the Mackmen. Eight games are still to be played between Philadelphisland Washington. Those eight games probably will decide the pennant in the American League. The Washington club makes no bones of the fact that remaining games with Philadelphia are the key to the championship. Manager Harris is confident his team is superior to the Athletics.! Over every other club except the world champions the Athletics hold the winning margin. * * * At present Pittsburgh looms strongest in the National League,' with little to choose between Philadelphia and Washington in the American. * * * GOOD DEFENSE mX football we often hear the remark a good offensive is the best defense. That hardly holds true hi baseball where the defensive end offensive strength play a somewhat equal part. A good defense hinges largely around the infield of a team. Most major league clubs have capable outfields Os- nearly equal strength. The margin of difference is far greater when making a comparison of the infields than the jutfietds. Brilliant infields are a prominent factor in the pennant fight that - is heing made by Pittsburgh in the National and Washington in the American. * * • The infield combinations of these two clubs stand out as the best in the majors. The inner defenses of the Athiefics and Giants are not far behind. • • • STRONG WEAPON SHE ability to make the most difficult double plays has made possible the winning of many a game for Pittsburgh and Washington this year. The Washington club is almost uncanny in this department of The moment a tight situation presents itself every member of the Washington Infield starts to chant. "Come on, let’s turn in a play for them.” That is the expression used when a double play Is most necessary to save the day. It is really remarkable how often the trick Is turned. * * V The old double play is the best defensive weapon of Washington and Pittsburgh. And, believe me, it exerts a powerful influence toward victory. Taking Chances I XE step Is often the slight j f 1 difference between safe and L.-r out on a majority of double plays. The failure to complete a two-ply killing usually can be traced to some slip In the handling of the ball. Famous double-play combinations always gamble, they ar “take-a-chance” players. The Jba il must be thrown with speed and the players involved must anticipate the throw. Mere totsing or lobbing the ball loses many a play that could have been turned with speedy handling. * * * In the handling of the ball one flindj the difference between success and failure in the making of double plays. Speed is the keynote.

Aug. 18.—Switching from the spot month and European buying of the distant optiong has further widened the spread between September and the far months. Comparative light offerings and the prospect of refiners paying slightly higher for sugars in nearby positions due to the heavy withdrawals will probably five us a relatively steady market for the eptember insuring orderly liquidation We are Inclined, however, to anticipate a gradual widening of the differential and for this resaon suggest the advisability of not delaying the transfer of contracts too long.
