HELENA-Plans for the beginning
Of q campaign to initiate q three-eent
gasoline tax measure, the entire pro-
ceeds Of which are to 60 to the high
way fund for the construction and
maintenance Of federal aid highways,
were made here Monday when the
committee Of eleven Of the good roads

bile association and agreed upon the
Is members Of the board Of directors
Of the automobile association. Tia

alton Of the measure.

In addition to the measure to raise
the gasoline tax to three cents and
give all the proceeds to the highway
fund, the automobile association
board Of directors will meet with the
state association of county commits
sioners at Billings on January q and
seek the aid Of the commissioner in
the campaign. The commissioners
also win be asked to cooperate in :
measure 70 provide that q sufficient
amount Of the motor vehicle license
money would be given the highway
fund which, added to the gasoline tax
proceeds, will provide enough money
to match all the federal aid allotted
to Montana. Members Of the commit
tee expressed the opinion that the en-
tire proceeds Of the three~cent gas
tax and % per cent Of the license
money would be sufficient to match
the federal aid.
The present gasoline tax law pro
vides that Is per cent Of the two-cent
tax shall go to the highway fund, 81
per cent to the counties equally and
80 per cent to the general fund Of the
