Penney Gasoline Tax Increase likely
By WILLIAM B
DICKINSON JR.
Washington Candidates
for Congress aren't talking
much about it, but the chances
are that motorists will be ask
ed next year to pay another
penny a gallon in federal gaso
line tax. Object of the hike
will be to rescue the 41,000
mile network of interstate
highways from the financial
troubles that have overtaken
it in only four short years. .
Public confidence in the
program may be somewhat
shaken when a special House
public works subcommittee
resumes hearings - probably
after the election - on allega
tions of corruption, waste and
mismanagement.- Chai r m a n
John A. Blatnik (D-Minn.) has
hinted that new disclosures
will make past fault-finding
seem "like a tea party."
Testimony given earlier this
year brought out the fact that
some overpasses on the new
roads were built too low to
allow passage of trucks carry
ing giant ballistic missiles.
The subcommittee was" told
also about an alleged overpay
ment of $524,689 to an Okla
homa contractor on a 13-mile
stretch of the system near
Tulsa.- Intensive subcommit
tee, investigations are now
under way in at least six
states.
May Not Be Easy
rushing a gas tax increase
through Congress may not be
easy after another round of
hearings on what Presi-lent
Eisenhower once called "the
greatest public works program
in history." But federal and
state officials assert that oc
casional cases of maladminis
tration and skulduggery
should not be allowed to hold
up progress on a vast highway
program of vital importance
to:v the national economy.
Even so, Congress may well
insist that, if the gas tax has
to be raised, federal controls
over the largely state-admin-

tstered program will have to
be tightened.
When the National System
of Interstate and Defense
Highways was authorized in
1956, completion was sched
uled for , 1972. But the fi
nancing plan prescribed by
Congress was based on cost
estimates of $27.5 billion - a
toal since raised to $40 bil
lion. The funding troubles
were multiplied in 1958, when
it was decided to step up
spending - without providing
for additional revenue - as
an anti-recession measure. As
a result, Congress now must
dig up an additional $10 bil
lion to $13 billion if the road
system is to be finished by
the 1972 target date.
Longer Construction Period
A tempting way out would
be to spread construction over
a longer period,, thus making
it unnecessary to increase
taxes. But this is viewed as
politically inexpedient. Motor
ists want the roads, and the
states want to cash in quickly
on the opportunity to build
superhighways with the fed
eral government paying 90
per cent of the cost.
Some members of Congress
would eliminate the pay-as-you-go
requirement of the
1956 act and borrow from the
Treasury's general fund. Fi
nancing now is based on the
theory that the full cost should
be borne by the highway
users.
In the absence of agreement
on any of the above steps,
most observers think another
increase in "the federal gaso
line tax will be imposed. One-
cent increases ordered in 1956
and again in 1959 raised the
federal levy to 4c a gallon,
and state gas taxes average 6c
a gallon. Some Inkling of what
may be recommended may be
given when the Commerce De
partment reports on a current
study of the direct and indi
rect benefits that various
groups may expect to receive
from the new highways. These
findings are intended to serve
as a guide to equitable distri
bution of the tax burden.
Construction Proceeding
Meanwhile, construction of
the network of controlled-ac-cess
superhighways is pro
ceeding, A Bureau of Public
Roads progress report shows
that about 9,100 miles of the
41,000-mile system had been
opened to traffic by July 1,
and that another 4,700 miles
were under construction. How
ever, only 3,693 of the com
pleted highway miles had
been built to estimated traffic
demands of 1975, and 2,274
miles consisted of bridges,
tunnels and toll roads built by
the states and simply Incor
porated into the interstate
system.-

Industry and forest products.
Chairman of the committee is
Ivan Harrington. .
New surveys indicate that
future highway demands may
surpass what was expected
five years ago when plans for
the intereslate system were
drawn up. These surveys seem
to confirm fears of traffic
analysts that building bigger
highways only produces big
ger traffic jams. Many ex
perts are sure that the number
of automobiles will always in
crease as fast as, or faster
than, highway Improvements.
There have been complaints
that some sections of the new
interstate highway system al
ready are inadequate to
handle the traffic load. Talk
has been heard in Congress of
adding another 7,000 miles to
the network. It is clear that
the lnterestate system never
will be truly completed.

New Kork - (UPD - Good-
body Sc Co. says that in all
likelihood the stock market
will not violate the Dow-
Jones 600 Industrial level, a
level which has now attained
an importance far beyond
anything It merits.
According to accepted tech
nical theory, Goodbody says,
violation of the triple bot
tom the level has already
been "tested" three times
this year would indicate a
further substantial decline.
There are enough people
watching this level so that a
break-through would bring on
a substantial volume of sell
ing, the firm says, but it
doubts that the stock market
as a whole would decline very
far. ,
Scattered among the rather
dreary statistic-based busi
ness forecasts is plenty of ev
idence - that businessmen do
not actually feel as pessimis
tic as the commonly - used
figure yardsticks would have
them, according to Thomson
