tax would be a flat $5 license
tec plus $<» 35 in additional gaso-
line t.ixes or a total ot $1135 a
year on top of the gasoline taxes
already being paid Statistics show
that 27,000 automobiles in Oregon,
or more than 10 per cent of the
total registration pay a tax of
only $10 under the present schedule
That means that under the pro
gram sponsored bv Senator Dunne
the tax against this class of nio-
torist would br lucrrasid b\ $1 35
a year, although the owner of the
big cars which pay high licenses
under the present system would, of
course, reap material benefit under
the lower tax.”
Allen
has compiled
figures to
show that u^ule” his plan motorists
of Oregon would contribute ip
proximately 82.225.877 a year in
license fees and taxes Wh le -the
average combined fee for new cars
would amount to $19.51 some 91.
000 cars of the more popular pric
ed makes and over five ■ years of
age which are now on thr regis-
t rat ion rolls would pay only
<
$7 a
year in combined fees.
The plan, according to Allen, has
been worked out with
a view to
equalizing thr tax burden and rr
lirving thr ownrrs of old C IFS \\ ho
are most in nrrd of relief at tills
time.
