to be assessed in a county but are to
pay only on the license tax to the state
for maintenance of the highways
Horsepower is the basis Of the IL
cense fee, regardless of whether the
car is a new or old one. On this basis,
the license would run as follows:
SIG year on Fords, Chevrolet, Max.

other cars under 90 horse power. The
$l6 it is proposed is to cover the en-.
tire tax on the car ana there is to BE-

bolshovik rule in Russia, that Germany,
with her familiarity with the Russian
character, which she has been studying
and attempting to control for a genera
tion or two, will be able to utilize the
immeasurable resources Of thar great
country and in 20 years, or perhaps a
