STATE rs PER CENT
ROAD FUND $949,95O

The total amount credited to the
25 per cent fund under the provisions
of the highway bill from June 8, 1923,
the date on which the bill became eff
fective, to September 80, 1925, is
$949. .950.80, according to statement
ISSUED by Wayne Hubbs, state treas
urer
OF the amount credited, $496, ,944.2S
represents the portion of the 10 cent
levy under the bill, while $409, ,489. SO
| is the amount of taxes collected un-
der the three cents a gallon gas tax
which has been credited to the states
25 per cent fund, and $43, ,516.96 rep
resents the mill taxes collected for
the period from the motor vehicles
operated for compensation in the
state.
Under ruling of the attorney gen
eral, the highway bill does not become
imperative until $1,550,000 has been
created to the 25 per cent fund of
the state from the proceeds of the bill.
At the rate the credits have been
made in the past, it is estimated that
II Will requne nearly a year and a
half for that place to be reached.
The bill provides for a levy of 10
cents for each $100 Of assessed valua-
tloll. a tax OF three cents gallon on
gasoline sold for motor vehicles, and
mill tax on the operations of the
passenger and freight motor vehicles
operated for compensation in the
state.
On the 10 per cent levy, rs per cent
of the amount goes each year to the
rs per cent funds of the counties and
the rest, or 25 per cent to the states
25 per cent fund. The gasoline tax
is divided as follows: One-half direct
to the county in which it was collect
ed, one quarter to the rs per cent fund
of the counties, and the remaining
one-quarter to the 25 per cent fund
of the state. The mill taxes are
credited entirely to the 25 per cent
fund.
The report issued by Mr.. Hubbs on
the credits made to the 25 per cent
fund, or the state highway fund from
the revenues of the bill show as fol-
lows for each year since the bill be-
came operative: 10-cent levy, 1928,
Sta, ,250.54; 1924, $162, ,469.63, and
1925, S160, 90; gasoline tax, June
8, 1923 to June so, 1924, $157, ,578.74; !;
July l, 1924 to June 80, 1925, $780,
44S.39, and July 1, 1925 to Septem-
Der 80, 1925, $55, ,462.33, and the mill
tax, June 30, 1924, $13,396.55; June
80, 1925, $26, 6,152.52, and from July L,
1926 to September 30, 1925, $3,967.S so.

When the Shoe Punches
NTHAT a difference it makes where the
wv shoe pinches

WTHAT a difference it makes where the
wv shoe pinches,
Only few short months ago Mr., Cool
idge'S political Spellbinders were stamping
the nation with the claim that n simple
proposition TO permit the people TO amend
their constitution. in the proper way pro-
yided by that instrument, meant revolu-'
ton. impiety, panic and other horrors.
We now see President Coolidge denoune-
ing the operation of the constitution, rs
TO its provisions that the United States
senate shall confirm or reject his nomi-
nations. Thus. it is Mr.. Coolidge'S toe that
the shoe now pincheS, and the grooming
of the regular cohorts is heard thruout the
land
The trainers of the constitution provided
for three governmental branches ~ the
judicial. the executive and the legislative
but put checks on two of them-the leg
iSlative and the executive. The senate was
TO pass on the presidents most important
nominations, and the president was TO
hold the power of veto of legislation by
congress. In fact. and in effect there is
potential check upon the judicial branch
of government. This potentiality lies with
the man whom the president selects for
attorney general, since no judicial decree
was elected to execute the laws and the
constitution certainly denies him the pre-
rogative in his selection of tools TO do the
Job.
The paramount Importance of the
attorney generalship is apparent and it
has been demonstrated so that even the
blind could read, under the recent Daugh-
erty regime, 1t is not enough that Presi-
dent Coolidge call attention to the chronic
regularity with which the nominations of
any man for any cabinet portfolio have
been confirmed by the senate. The found
ers of the constitution decided that the
time might arrive when the job of exc
cutting the will of executive. legislative and
judicial branches of government would be
offered bad or dangerous man and they
gave the nation safeguard in requiring
the consent of the senate Mr. Coolidge
should not have complained of the con-
stitution which was saved for him only
last November
