highway fund to meet county re-
endorsement bonds and speed i'm
provements on the most used
roads in Minnesota.
The ruling is expected to Sc
cure for the gas tax amendment
at the next election a majority
even bigger than that given Good
Roads Amendment No. /.
With thirty-six states now col
lecting gas taxes and ten more
about to go on the list, predic-
tions are that Minnesota will
soon be forced to pass a gas tax
law if only to play even and
derive some direct public revenue
from the thousands of tourists
using the highways in the Ten
Thousand Lakes state. And with
a gas tax looming, its advocates
assert that car and truck owners
may be depended upon to see to
it that the money is put on the
roads where it will afford them
the biggest and most direct bene-
fits. The favorable votes of the
motor vehicle owners of the state
alone will insure the passage of
the amendment.
Then it will be up to the legis-
lature to decide whether any gas
tax shall be collected, but made
a certainty under the attorney
generals ruling that any money
coming from that source will go
for more good roads.

Gas taxes for good roads or gas
taxes to increase funds spent for
general state expenses?-that is
the big question to be determin-
ed by Minnesota voters at the
election next November.
Clifford L. Hilton, attorney
general, this week gave a formal
opinion to that effect. He holds
that the state legislature now has
authority to place a tax on gaso-
line, III it sees fit. the principle of
law being the same as that in the
much-talked-of tonnage tax which
has been held valid by the high
est court. The proceeds. how
ever, would have to go into the
general revenue fund to be spent
for miscellaneous state expenses.
But a majority Of all votes at
the November election favoring
the gas tax. the money from any
such levy made by the Legislature
would go into the state trunk

anticipated within the next two weeks.
Within that period is embraced the

get ahead and probably destroy
thousands OF bales OF cotton that
would otherwise mature.
