WASHINGTON, April 9. Of tlio

states and District of Columbia last
year for automobile, motorcycle and
registered chauffeurs' licenses, 9G
percent, or $97,997,160.00 was applied
to road maintenance or construction.
In 190C, Just 14 years ago, practically
none of the automobile revenue was
applied to road construction or main
tenance. There has been a tremen
dous change In the last 14 years.
In 190G the total registration of
cars wns 48,000, the total gross reve
nue of $193,000, or just about what
Arizona paid in 1920. Last year 9,211,
295 motor cars, including commer
cial vehicles, were registered. Hn ad
dition to this number there were 24S,
146 motorcycles.
The amount received from regis
tration revenue last year was equal to
approximately 25 percent of the total
rural road and bridge expenditures
for the calendar year of 1919. In 1900
the grosB income from registration
was only equal to throe-tenths of 1
percent for expenditures on account,
of total iiiiiil road and bridge eon-
structlon.
