$5 AUTO FEE AND
GAS TAX BOOST IN
Fee Revision Committee Files j
Report With Governor
After Survey Road Poli
cies Basis of Findings
&ALEM, Dec. l&WP) A flat an
nual license fee of 15 on all private
DaeaeniKr automobllea, an additional
300.000 to be collected from trucks
over the existing charges, and a one
cent Increase in the atate gasoline
fuel oila tax, were among the out
standing recommendation filed with
Governor Meier today by the motor
vehicle fee revision committee.
The committee aa appointed by
Governor Meier on March 4. 1933. and
haa held a, series of conferences elnce
that time. Dr. E. B. McDanlel or
Portland la chairman of the committee-Would
Total flO.550,000.
Figures contained In the commit
tee'! report indicated that through
the oroDoaed revision of fee and In
crease in the gasoline tax the annual
revenue would total $10,500,000. while
the total aet expense would agreate
$8,327,000. Thla would leave $2,123,
000 for refunding, reconstruction and
construction. 1
The recommendations of the com
mittee were based on certain high
way policies, enumerated as follow:
No additional highway bonda to be
issued except temporary refunding
bonds In case of emergency. Seme
to be repaid from current refunds.
In no case should the refund bonds
be Issued for ft period longer than
two years.
Should Pay Bonds a. Due. I
All bond maturities should be paid 1
when due and no bond reissued.
Change gaa tax refund law so aa to
insure that only legitimate non-highway
users will receive refund. As a
method of accomplishing this, the
committer suggests that gasoline re
tailers, on which refund U made, be
licensee. In addition, the committee
suggests the Incorporation In our law
of the protective provisions of the
North Carolina gas refund law.
Change secondary highway law so
as to pla secondary hlghwaya on
same designation and construction
baala aa primary highways, allowing,
however, for the inclusion of certain
roads or sections of roads to fill in
gaps now existing.
That set amount of $1,000,000 be
returned to counties In lieu of the
one-third license fee which they now
receive. This amount la approxi
mately the present figure returned
to the counties.
Public Education Needed.
In reaching Its conclusion the com
mittee assumed the attitude that the
state highway commission would give
priority to partially completed high'
ways in approving construction proj
ects.
That some method be provided to
make the publio more familiar with
highway affairs and obligations, and
to acquaint the Oregon motorist with
the benefits that accrue from the
highway system.
The committee found in studying
the expense items of the state high
way department that If the above
recommendations were followed, there
would be a aet expense account for
bond serving maintenance of pri
mary and secondary highways, return
to the counties, state poltoe appro
priations, collection expense and ad
ministration of the state highway
department, amounting to $8,337,000.
This amount includes $3,000,000
for retiring bonda each year.
Budget Exceeded This Year.
"Subtracting thla amount from the
anticipated revenue of $10,4o0.000, the
report continued, "you will note that
the recommended amount for im
provements, reconstruction and new
construction totals $3,123,000. This
amount would be available for the
above purposes in ordinary years, but
the highway department has expend
ed for unemployment relief ft pp roil
mately $1,500,000 more than was bud
geted for the current year.
"This unbudgeted item has been
expended from cash or hand whleh
had been set aside to meet bond In
terest and maturities nxt April. As
a consequence. $1,500,000 will have
to be raised by short term bonds next
April.
'It is the recommendation of the
committee that this $1,500,000 be
taken up as quickly possible, from
current revenues available for con
struction and reconstruction, and
that In no case shall hl short term
paper be extended beyond a two-year
period.

Cordial Invitation
To Southern Oregon People
IT IS a privilege for me to invite the
people of southern Oregon to inspect
the 1933 Chevrolet ... It has been my ,
pleasure to sponsor the debut of seven ,
new. Chevrolet creations during the past
seven years in Medford and, in my opin
ion, no product of the Chevrolet com
pany has been so striking in appearance,
so advanced in body lines and as revolu
tionary mechanically as these new 1933
models! I had the opportunity of pre
viewing the new models in Portland last
Monday and with the many new, exclus
ive features, I consider it without doubt
the outstanding automobile value of the
coming year. Everyone is invited to at
tend the initial showing tomorrow . . .
Come as the guests of Pierce-Allen
Motor Company, and see for yourself
this sensational Chevrolet achievement!

Longer Larger Faster Smoother New in
Styling More Economical And Featuring
Fisher No-Draft Ventilation
MX
TOMORROW will bt Chevrolet Day throughout
America. And the new car that millions have
been watching and waiting for the latest product
of the world's leading builder of automobiles will go
on display: the New Chevrolet Six at a new scale of low
prices. Front, side, rear inside, outside everything
about this new car is advanced, improved, excitint.
Longer wheelbase makes it the biggest automobile in
today's low-price field. The latest principle of car
design, "Aer-Stream" styling, gives it a totally differ
ent, ultra-modern appearance. Toe new Fisher
bodies are larger, wider faultlessly streamlined
swung lower to the road and offer the first basic
improvement in travel comfort in over ten years:
Fisher No-Draft Ventilation. Chevrolet perform
ance In every gear is faster, flashier, more brilliant.
The time-proved sis-cylinder engine is more powerful
as well as mora economical. Improved Free Wheel
ing is combined with a "silent second" Syncrc-Mesh
gear-shift. Chevrolet engineers have developed a
remarkable new Invention that wins complete vic
tory over vibration : Tfie Cuthion-Balanced Engine
Mounting. And as far as prices are concerned, several
models now sell at the lowest figures in Chevrolet
history. Chevrolet Is able to do all this because
Chevrolet has the advantageof being the world's largest
builder of cars for 4 out of the past 6 years. Chev
rolet builds cars in greater volume buys materials in
greater quantities does everything on a bigger, mora
economical scale. Hence, Chevrolet is in a posi
tion to provide a better car at a better price than
could possibly issue from any other source. The
leader can accomplish what others dare not try!
