V'V, M(Q)MFJIS REDUCTIOH in AUTO TAX ASKED BY CAR BUILDER CAR MAKER SAYS THE TAX IS AGAINST TRANSPORTATION General Reduction Shnold Include Lifting Assessment ou . Autos, Said It is assumed that tax reductions amounting to some $300,000,000 wil be made at the next session of congret. But as yet, there has been no indication that this tax reduction will be extended to In clude automobiles. The inequity of all war leyles has already been recognised by partial repeals and it certainly seems unfair to tax any one group, especially when that group so vitally affects the public welfare as does the automo tive industry. .. Automobile taxes .are taxis on trrnspo.-tatlon. .Other federal taxes on transportation have been removed. Government authoritiei have repeatedly acknowledged the present ' levy on automobiles in equitable and concede it should be removed when conditions permit. As a matter of fact, the automo tive industry now pays all the taxes other industries pay, and In addition, must shoulder the addi tional burden of a special wartime sales tax. . . The war ended more than eix years ago. Today there Is aproba bility of a $400,000,000 federal surplus. And yet the American pcbllc is still forced to pay approx imately $31 more per car thar would be necessary were the fed eral tax on automobiles removed. The elimination of the federal tax on transportation would hate a favorable effect on business gen erally. The automobile industry employs more than 3.119.000 per son directly or indirectly. The continued success ot the automo tive industry is vital if the stand ard of living and purchasing pow er of .this great group are to be maintained. -Its welfare is Important to other businesses as well. Today the makers of" motor cars take 48 ot our aluminum production, 52 of our plate glass, 69 ot our leather upholstery, 8D of our crude rubber, and 15 of our hardwood lumber. The importance of the automo bile Industry to tha railroads can be readiy appreciated when we r rlixe that motor transportation products provide the steam rail roads "with . more than 2.o00,0Pp carloads of freight annually. IQ fact, the.deeper one goes into the making and markeilng'of automd llles, the, more one appreciate! what an cssentiaLpart the motor car plays in American business t nd social life; and the less reason one finds for the continuation of the time tax on'the Industry.
