state, will release road funds for
use elsewhere, SO that within a
year or two every county in the
state would benefit. Further
more, in this age when it is COM
mon to drive across the whole
width of the state IN day, there
are few motorists who do not get
a direct benefit from recent high
way improvements IN ether coun-
ties.
While Mr.. Babcock avs that he
will not n axe a fight fol- the bond
issue this year, and has not even
had the bill introduced, he asks
motorists to remember that bonds
would neither increase the auto
mobile taxes nor would they in any
manner affect general property
taxes. They would simply hasten
some of the most needed highway
improvements while the principal
and interest would be paid for by
the reduced maintenance expendi-
lures. t':1I

Higher Auto Tax Would
Cut Annual Road Upkeep
Babcock Submits Figures on Pro-
posed Increases and Relation to
Operating Cost

Readers of the Herald, whether
they favor the road fund increases
which Commissioner C. M. Babcock
is advocating, or not, may be in
terested in some figures in this
weeks Highway bulletin, showing
how the increase, if approved by
the Legislature, would affect the
average car owner.
The average license fee for 1926
was SIS. 81, the basic rate being
"a per cent. If the basic rate
were put back to 2 ga per cent,
the rate in force from 1923 to
1925, it would make the average
license cost $18.98. The amount
of gas paid by the average car
owner in 1926 was ST. If the
rate were increased from 2 to 8
cents per gallon, as proposed, the
gas tax for the average car would
be Sill. IS. The license and gas
tax together now average $23 Al
per car and if both increases were
granted the average total would
be 5000.
No man wants to pay out money
unless he gets something in return.
The bulletin suggests that the only
way to judge road toll charges,
which is really what auto and
gas taxes amount to, is ito consider
them in relation to the total cost
of operating a vehicle and to de-
eide whether paying $7.22 more
for good roads will actually in
crease the total operating cost.
Most experienced motorists, who
have noted the reduction in tire,
wear, gasoline consumption and re-
pair bills since the trunk highway
system was established in 1921,
will say that it would decrease in
stead of increasing their total ex-
penditure. Others will say that it
will enable them to drive farther
for the same money, to use their
cars more days in the year and to
get more enjoyment from their in
vestment.
Even if the increased highway
funds did not bring new construc-
ton to every county the first year,

lily travelled and extensively main

Average Minnesota Auto
License Fee Is Less
Price Reductions Cut Highway
Fund-July Receipts 40 Per
Cent Lower Than In 1926

The average license fee paid
for motor vehicles registered in
Minnesota from Jan. to July 81
is 27 cents less than in the same
period in 1926. The 620,631 ma
chimes registered in seven months
paid total of $9,825,495 towards
Minnesota's better highways fund,
or an average of $15.84 per acre.
Last year in the same months the
number was 592,549, the average
fee s$16.11, and the total $9,547,-
207.
Price cuts by manufacturers are
responsible, as the fee is based on
the F. o. B. price. This also cuts
the fee on older machines, as the
fee is based on this years price of
the same model, less the annual
10 per cent reduction for age.
License receipts for the month
of July were $140,503, compared
to $233,939 in July, 1926. Re-
ceipts during the first quarter were
1913, 704 greater than in the first
quarter of 1926, but during the
second quarter they were $241, $50
less than last year.
Unless there is large increase
in buying of new machines this
fall, highway revenues will be lit
tie if any greater than in 1926.

That business conditions gener-

ceedingly fair, with every indica-

this fall, was the keynote of a
statement issued Saturday by C..
f.. Barth, vice-president in charge
of manufacturing of the Chevrolet

statement followed the announce
ment that on August IL Chevrolet
topped its entire output for 1926

so far this year.
eve are looking optimistically
toward the fall season." Mr.. Barth
declared. There is ample evidence
of countrywide prosperity. Crop
conditions are considerably better
than last year, Investigation hay
ing helped the south and west. In
the northwest alone the yield this
year is expected to be substantial
ly above the average for the past
ten years, in Minnesota, the Dako-
tas and Montana the grain crop
being estimated as worth $780,
100000 more than last year.
eve are proceeding under the
heaviest production schedule in our
history. Not only did we on Aug.
IL turn out the 732,147th car so
far this year and thus outstrip our
entire output for 1926, but our
August schedule calls for 89,474
units, an increase over. January,
February and July of this year
and considerable gain over Aug.
of 1926. Every month so far this
year we have increased by wide
margin our own high marks for
1926"
