FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER. 1, U!i
. THE SOURCE OP ROAD MONET
Automobile, pwners confronted by
. license and horse power taxes on top
; of war and personal levies sometimes
feel that 'they are the ones who pay
t. for the improvement' of the nation's
f roads. . Owners of abutting property
:. are very sure that -the major part of
' the burden falla upon them, and the
. general taxpayer is seldom without
hla parallel complaint. In view of
the fact .that the nation spent ap
: proximately $600,000,000 In road
. maintenance and construction last
r- year, the dlvialon of the load becomes
of Interest.
The United States bureau of public
roads, a branch of the department of
; agriculture, h is figured it all out, and
. this la the result: Taxes on auto-
. mobiles supplied .19 -per cent; state
road bonds 7 per cent; local road
bonds S3 per cent; state taxes and
appropriations II per cent; federal
aid 14 per cent; county, township and
, district taxes and assessments 14 per
cent; miscellaneous 1 percent.
But, whatever the total or distribu
tion of the burden., there la far from
enough money available. This year
no less than three-quarters of a billion
dollars will be Spent for road building
and repair,, and as much more has
been provided for work that will run
Into next year and perhaps the one
after. Considered in comparison with
1914, It Indicates a ISO per cent in
crease but the Increase in American
highway traffic in the past eight years
Is more than 450 per cent.
The fact Is that, despite tax bur
dens that grow steadily more trouble
some, we seem unable to Increase our
facilities for motor and horse drawn
vehicle traffic more than one-third
as rapidly as the traffic grows. It
offers a problem which ho political
subdivision can ignore, but which few
.-'liave as yet been able even to pretend
;. to solve.
RAILROAD SABOTAGE
It was bad enough to leave passen-
Ker trains stranded in a desert. It la
Just as bad, potentially, to leave coal
cars stranded In freight yards. The
coal does not suffer as passengers do.
but people lacking It jiext winter will
uf fer. - j ;
i A member of the state fuel admln-
'Istratlon In Ohio .reported recently
- that in yards near Portsmouth there
were 2000 to 1000 loaded coal cars
almost hopelessly blocked. The rail
roads were afraid to move them, he
' said, because the Journals or grease
boxes of nearly every car were filled
with emery dust, glass, bolts and
other foreign matter that would dla-
able the cars and possibly cause
wrecks If they were run any distance.
- There does not seem to be any dis
position in responsible quarters to
charge that the strike leaders In au
thority ;are sanctioning such sabotage,
' any more than the heads of the rail
road brotherhoods sanctioned or ex
cused the outrageous desertion by
srain crews of those tralnloads of
tMtssengera In the Southwestern desert
Tet It is charged explicitly that the
'sabotage la being practiced.
Nothing could work more harm to
the strikers' cause than such criminal
and mistaken activity, whether it Is
perpetrated by strikers themselves or
by Irresponsible sympathizers, and
very member of any union who Is
concerned for the future of American
unionism ahould do his best to atop It.
