Motor vehicle license and gasoline
tax receipts for the first quarter Of the
year were si71.i32 below those for the
first three months of 1928. according
to figures Just made public by John N.
Mackall, chairman Of the State Roads
Commission.
He said that the complete figures for
April, when they become available,
will show an increase in this deficit,
but he expects the gasoline tax re-
turns during the summer months,
when motoring is heaviest, to more
than make II up.
April registration fees totaled only
S14O.6s5 this year, as compared with
s426,s22 last April, a falling on Of
S2s5,937 Mr. Msckall explained that
this decrease is accounted for by the
fact that last year the registration fee
was less for three-quarters Of the year
than for the full year and consequent
ly automobile owners who did not use
their cars during the winter months
waited until April to take out their
licenses This year the registration
fee is 80 cents a horsepower for the
full year or any part thereof Con
sequently more motorists bought their
license plates during the first quarter,
he said
While the gasoline tax figures for
April Of this year have not been tabu-
lated they will not make up for this
loss in registration fees. he stated.
The funds available for road main
tenance have not been diminished by
the full amount Of the difference be
tween this years receipts, Mr.. Mackall
explained. as tthe gasoline tax of last
year. which amounted to s126,709 for
the first three months, was devoted
entirely to making up deficits which
had accrued in preceding years
Up to April the 2-cent gasoline tax
had not returned to the State twice
as much money as did the 1-cent tax
of last year. the figures show, but Mr.
