Says Gas Tax
Popularity Is
On Increase

The state Highway Commission, in
a bulletin released today, voices it's
official opinion favoring the gas tax
for road construction idea which has
been gaining popularity SO rapidly
in the various states, and has been
advocated for serious consideration
by the North Dakota state legislature.
The bulletin, statement by w. G..
Black, chief engineer with the COM
mission, says that because it would
provide funds sufficient in quantity
to handle an appreciably increased
mileage of state highways; because
it is undeniably the most fair. sys-
tenn yet devised for road tax; because
it taxes heaviest those who most use
the roads; because it has been work
ed out so that it provides for GER
tain exemptions among the various
classes Of gas users; and because it
lets the tourists help pay for Ve
roads they use, the state Highway
Commission wishes to express itself
as whole heartedly favoring the pro-
posed gas tax for road construc-
ton"
This expression of favor with the
proposed plan by the official high
way organization of the state is
agreeably looked upon by. the. ad.
vocates of the plan who. say that
with the Highway Commission in
favor of it the state legislature will
feel that the proposal has the Off.
cial backing necessary and that it
must be worthy of serious considera.
tion by the session.

Main Building
OF University
Is Condemned

Grand Forks, Aug. 21.-Due to
continued settling of the foundation
and consequent cracking of the
walls from footings to cornice, Mer-
rifield hall at the University of
North Dakota has been declared
unsafe by architects and contrac-
tors and, upon the approval of the
state board of administration, work
in tearing down the top floors of
the building has been started.
1t is expected that a temporary
building will be provided on the
campus for recitation rooms to re-
place the ones lost through the par
tial destruction Of Merrifield hall,
Charles l.. Ellis, superintendent Of
buildings and grounds at the in
stitution, said Tuesday. Final
plans for this frame structure and
it's location have not been definitely
arranged, but it is expected to- have
both the tearing down of Mortified
hall and the construction of the new
building completed by the opening
of school, September 20, Mr.. Ellis
said.
