Many Better Ways to Tax
Cars in Use Than House
Committee Suggests
By c. E. T. Scharps

Motorists light lamps TODAY. S:3e o. m.
Although motorists have pretty well
MADE up their minds that the tax on
automobiles now in service will not be
based on the list price Of the car when
new they are relaxing no efforts to
point out to persons who may have
voice IN affairs in Washington the in
equality and absurdity of tax on that
OASIS. 1t is understood that the Senate
IS opposed to the plan offered bv the
ays and Means Committee Of tho
House of Representatives # so % ONE o,,T
vote IS with the Senate.
There are better and fairer wavs n
TAX automobiles already in the hands
Q, owners. Either take the sale price
OF the car and tax on that or else use
the tlgures on which insurance com
panles operate. There need be no sus-
plclon that bill Of sale would be doc
.ored TOR the purpose of evadinr q tax
ana if the car had been so long in
me possession of the owner that the
OIL OF sale is no longer available. re-
course to the insurance classification
IS a safe method.
And # neither Of these plans ap-
peals to the authorities, it is easily
possible to establish regular tables.
Nased on the national used car re-
ports, which indicate sale price and
ALLOW vance value for all models of auto
mobiles.
II some rational system is not fol-
lowed the motorist may be put in the
position OF being the owner OF a car
which IS 50 old that the insurance corn
panles "lll hardly offer coverage on it
and yet the government will expect a
paymen. Of tax based on the price as
1t was half dozen years before.
Now is surely the time for motorists
70 get to work to head off the tax az it
was recently framed There is. of
course, not the least desire to avoid
paying a reasonable tax. This il a
golden opportunity for any organiza-
ton of motorists which calls itself ma
tional to show itself national in its
manner of handling the situation. 1t
IS condition that calls for something
better than the use of the soft pedal.
A reader calls attention to road con-
dltIons in New York State. particular
y on the roads leading up into the
Adirondacks. He says he found the
west shore road from New York to
Albany all in good condition and that
IN the NJ Chborhood of Athens there
IS no longer any detour. From Bemis

down from Saratoga and Mechanics
