f HIGHWAY BUILDING I MEDFORD MXIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON, FRIDAY, 'APRIL 1 1932. FSGE ELEVEN SHOULD TAKE ALL OF GAS TAX FUND i "Every community In which a cement mill 1 located certainly haa i a vital Interest In preventing the ! use of gasoline tax funds for pur 1 poses other than the building of highways," said W. H. Mulrhead, 5 vice-president of the Beaver Port land Cement Co. today In conslder I Ing future employment possibilities at nls company s pianb. "There Is a movement afoot In many states." said Mr. Mulrhead. ! ', L to divert the proceeds of this road fl (tax to a variety ot purposes. No V. .f matter how commendable the latter, . ! auch a proceeding .would breax ". S faith with the motorists, continue ,j to Impose the tax upon them wlth , . f out providing the roads, and would f ! throw out of employment hundreds t of thousands of worklngmen who I are dependent upon road building. "Recently It has been found through a number of different i sources, Bmong them the C. 8. 5 bureau of public roads and the aa- . " soclated general contractors, that BS to 91 per cent of the dollar spent ; for concrete roads goes for wages and salaries. This puts road bulld i lng at the top of the list for the i proportion of cost paid out for labor, 'i I am told that charity, well ad : ministered, can hardly pay out for i relief more than 86 cents of each i dollar collected. f "Cut out roads and you cut out labor," Mr. Mulrhead continued. "This Is brought home to commu- nltles like those In which our en ' ployees live when it Is realized ! that mill labor receives m of i every S1000 spent for roads and that f i frequenUy as much as 40 addl i J Vtional out of the same 1000 Is ex 1 M pended In our community for other labor Incident to manufacture. The J contractor also pays out another -I ltei of 141 for construction labor il on the Job. "Concrete roads can be built now for less money than at any time since the war. This Is the opportu , nlty of a generation to provide S hlehwavs at a reduction pos sibly as great as 15 or 20 per cent and at the same time provide the wont so badly needed by willing workers In our mill communities." concluded Mr. Mulrhead.
