IF SOME dictator came along and said "All automobiles arc out" he himself would last quick. The nation would rise as one man to defend the motor car as the greatest modern con. tribution to better living everybody's better living. . Yet the tax-makers who keep piling tax after tax on the motorist do it on the theory that they are luxury taxes which anybody rich enough to own an automobile can easily afford. Well, what kind of chap Is this average motorist the em.a In. ..an t 1 CCA AAA 000 in taxes? He may be you. Certainly he wasn't one of the few who tooled the highways in an imported, custom-made job of countless cylinders. Not was he the college boy with his be-sloganed "heap". He was a fellow with a car several years old who earned $30 week or less, a nation wide survey shows. He was most certainly the com mon people. ' There were eleven million of . him and that means more than half all the car-owners in the nation. To him and his family his car was no luxury for which he might justly be forced to pay through the nose. They considered it is much necessity as bread an Amer ican necessity in die pursuit of happiness. ' Standard Oil Company of California Me. I Catholic Cltih.
