Preliminary copies of a proposed
measure providing for a graduated 1
lax on all retail and wholesale es- '
tablishments were fileld with the1
state department this week. The tax
would range from $2 on a single
store under one ownership up to $750
on each store in a chain of more than
50 establishments. A similar meas- '
ure was defeated in the last legisla­
tive session.

Congressman James W. Mott, a mem­
ber of the house committee on roads,
and the sum of $60,000,000 has been
made available for this purpose.
The appropriations committee last
week acceded to the demand of the
roads committee and rejected the
recommendation made in the Presi­
dent's budget messaage that the un­
appropriated balance of last year’s
federal aid road money be cancelled.
The appropriation bill, as reported
by the committee and passed by the
House a few days ago, carried the full
amount of the unappropriated bal­
ance of $60,000,000 authorized by the
roads comimttee last year. This is ap­
proximately $2,500,000 more than the
sum provided for the regular federal
aid program at the last session, of
congress. The bill is now in the sen­
ate and no further trouble is expect­
ed on the road item.
