fer to the number Of fees exacted of mo-
tor vehicles, which. they say, are the fol-
lowing:
Tristan operators permit must be
obtained. for which a fee OF 81 Is charged.
''Second-An Identification tag IL re-
quired at cost Of s.
all automobiles and other motor vehicles
owned or operated In the District OF Co
lumbia. the fee being s. for the first seat
accommodating two persons. and 81 for
each additional seat.
Fourth: A personal tax Is charged on
each automobile at the rate Of one dol
lar and half on every hundred dollars OF
its value; and
Fifth: Should the automobile be a
public vehicle a special license L. requir-
ed. the rate being So per annum for each
vehicle not exceeding ten passengers. and
$12 per annum for each vehicle exceed
ing ten passengers.
Classed as Unjust and Unequal.
"It thus seems that cumbersome and
excessive system of taxation Is in force
against auto vehicles, and the office
records required to keep account Of these
taxes are varied and voluminous." con!
tinues the report. This tax seems to
be especially unjust and unequal In its
workings. 1t was enacted without any
request to the municipal authorities for
their opinion as to its advisabiNty. It II
difficult and expensive to enforce and its
repeal Is earnestly recommended"
