SOL LEvITAN
ON GAS TAX
Every Cent Used For
Highway Purposes
Says State Treasur
err
(By the United Press)

State Treasurer Sol Levitan
today in Madison took issue with
the statement made by. G. w. Had
den general sales manager of the
Velie Motors corporation to the
press on Saturday, in which he de-
clared that money raised by gas
taxes was being diverted to other
than highway purposes.
81 do not care what other states
are doing, but l want the people
of Wisconsin to know that Mr..
Hadden's statement is unfounded
as far as this state is concerned,
and that every cent of the money
raised by gasoline tax is used for
highway purposes" Mr.. Levitan de-
clared.
1.-THE Wisconsin law very speci-
fically directs how this money shall
.be expended. 1t provides that the
state highway commission must
first set aside out of the gas tax
fund a sum sufficient to meet the
federal highway appropriation aid.
For this purpose approx mately ST.
100000 will be set aside this year
against which the federal govern
ment will put up an additional sum
of$1 $4,000 for highway work in
Wisconsin.
1.-The sum of $4,000 is set aside
for the expense of collecting the
tax and administering the gas tax
law
Every cent of the remainder is
returned to the counties to be used
for highway purposes. Forty per
cent of this balance is distributed
among the counties in proportion
to the number OF automobiles in
each county. The other 60 per cent
is distributed according to the num-
Der of miles of roads within each
county.
wisconsin, gas tax will raise
more than $4,000 GOO a year and
every cent of it. with the excep-
ton of the $4,000 appropriated for
the necessary expense involved in
administering the law and collect
ing the tax, will be expended on
Wisconsin's highways"
