They do both, sir, when it comes to taxes on mo toring. For every hour your average motorist' spent at the wheel last year he paid seven teen cents in taxes. Less than every four minutes he dropped another penny in the tax-collector's tall. When one state originated a one-cent gas tax nineteen years ago, thereby placing the whole burden of roads on a single commodity, it ended a beauti ful friendship between taxation and equity for the sake of a sure, self-collecting levy. No soothsayer was needed to fore tell what was coming. Every' state and the federal govern ment seized the idea and doubled in spades. It was so easy to say "Boys, let's add an other dinky penny to the gas tax." Last year gas taxes the coun try over averaged 5.29 cents a gallon. Motorists paid the high est sales-tax in the world no longer always to build roads. An eastern state actually used gas tax money to grow oysters. Motorists now pay gas taxes, sales taxes on cars, tires, bat. teries license fees personal property taxes until millions spend more in taxe each year than they could get in cash fr their cars. Yet for every hard-hit mo torist one thing happily holds true. Gasoline is cheap the tax alone is high.
