ASK GASOL|NE: TAX
 BE USED ON ROADS
State Autom0tiVe Trades Be- hind Amended Bill Be-
 fore Legislature

Asking the legislature to provide that all money being collected under the present 2-cents-per- gallon motor fuel tax should be applied on the building, improvement and mainte- nance of highways, members of the Alabama Automotive Trades asso- citation were taking steps Saturday in favor of the amendment to the motor fuel tax law now pending be- fore the legislature. This amend ment provides that all the motor fuel tax money be spent on the roads in stead of half going into the state treasury, as at present.
 The association first took action in the matter at the regular semi annual meeting in Mobile on July 23, when a resolution offered bY Hayes Tucker of Tuscaloosa asking that all the moneys collected be spent on the roads was unanimously that time members of the associa- tion have been active, and it is thought that the present amendment will meet with but little opposition in the legislature.
 Reese Adamson, president of the association, declared Saturday that the present motor fuel tax amounted to a double tax on the owners of low-priced cars, who are faced with the cost of wear and tear due to poor roads, in addition to the regular g. cents-per gallon tax, which is sup posed to go to the improvement of these roads. In view of the fact that 75 per cent of the automobile owners of the state are owners of these low priced cars and depend on them as sole means of transporta- tion, the present motor fuel tax is rroVing a double burden on the ma jority of the car owners.
