Senator Smith w. Brookhart to be
leading his Democratic opponent,
Daniel Steck of Ottumwa by slightly
more than 700 votes. An error of

of Brookhart uncovered by county
auditor Kaufman was the biggest
factor in changing the standing of
the candidates. Other additions
were made to Brookhart's total in a
half-dozen counties. Another error,
this one in Polk county, Des Moines,
gave Brookhart an additional 200
votes, bringing his lead to 759. The

State Auto. Assn
Opposes Gas Tax

Columbus, O.-Shaping Of plans
for a statewide campaign to prevent
the enactment of any unreasonable
gasoline tax was put under way last
week when the legislative committee
of the Ohio State Automobile Asso-
citation issued a preliminary report
based on reports that various gas tax
proposals are being drafted on
study of gas tax laws in other states
and on the opinions of automobile
club officials throughout the state.
The report stated that opinion con-
ceming the value and desirability of
a gasoline tax in the state in which
such a tax is collected is by no means
unanimous and that further study
will be required before the state asso-
citation will be prepared to say wheth-
er or not even the most desirable sys-
tenn of imposing a gasoline tax would
fit in with the needs Of Ohio.
The report stated that there are
likely to be several gas tax proposals
introduced in the next Legislature
suggesting rates Of one, two, or three
cents a gallon, both with and without
a reduction in the present license tag
fee. The one most talked of proposes
a tax of two cents with a flat fee of
| $500 for license tags for all makes of
car.
The effect of this tax, the commit
! tee pointed out, would be to raise the
amount paid by the average car own
Ell from about 5000 a year to $500
year, and would mean an increase
of $1,000 or $500 a year for the
average car owner if no reduction
| should be made in the license tag
| fee.
The committee is giving two other
phases of the question particular
study. One is resulted by the eX-
ample of Michigan, where last year
motorists paid $10,500000 in taxes on
S200,000,000 assessed valuation, COM
pared with $16,000,000 taxes paid on
| 16,540,000 Of assessed valuation of
all other kinds of property.
The other question is of particular
interest to the majority of the sc au-
tomobile clubs of the o. S. A. A. be-
cause most of them are located in
cities and under the present laws
only half the license tag fees are re-
turned to be spent on road and street
improvements in the cities in which
the fees are collected. The report
pointed out that if this same system
should prevail under a gasoline tax
plan, the rural districts would have
an advantage over the cities.
One of the chief arguments in fav-
or of a gasoline tax, the report
stated, is that it is the best way to
measure the amount of use of high
ways and that the amount of tax col
lected should be proportioned to this
use The same principle should hold
true in the distribution of the revenue
as collected.
However, more than rs per cent of
the traffic over all highways within
the states borders is over city
streets. If We hold that the gasoline
tax proponents argument is logical,
rs per cent of the tax paid within
municipalities should be expended
within those municipalities in proper
tion to the volume of traffic over the
streets.

ENOUGH OF IT
OLD BLUE LAWS ENDED
IN ASHTABULA
With Slight Modification in Movie
Rules Everything Is Back to
Former Conditions

Ashtabula-After four weeks of
blue law enforcement, this city will
get its motion picture shows and
other usual business and amusements
back again.
This decision was reached when
business men announced that the blue
laws no longer will be enforced here.
They based their opinion on the
statements of four councilmen-a
majority of council-made publicly at
council meeting that they were in
favor of the city being operated on
Sundays as it was before the closing
movement was instigated.
City Manager w. M. Cotton has
authorized a statement in which he
outlined a suggestion for the opera
ton of Sunday business and enter
tainment in Ashtabula.
The city manager proposed that all
motion pictures shown on Sunday be
censored by committee of three, two
ministers and business man.
The picture theatre owners and a
number of the ministers agreed to try
the plan of the city manager which
provides also that ministers may
preach from the stage of the photo
play theatres for at least fifteen min
utes, using the picture as the basis
of their sermon, if they choose.
Mr.. Cotton suggested that ice
cream, candy and cigar stores, news
stands, gasoline stations and garages
be operated as usual on Sundays. All
other stores, including groceries, he
asked not to be open before noon nor
after p. m.
