TAX ON CARS
Split Seen Between
Two Houses of
Legislature

SACRAMENTO, Jan. 10.
CUP) = Possibility of t h e
first major battle between
legislative houses appeared
today as the state senate
prepared to consider extension of
the state ''in lieu" tax on auto
mobiles.
AS approved by the assembly,
the tax would be continued for
two years. The senate committee
on revenue and taxation. how
ever. amended it to make the
tax a permanent part of the state
revenue structure and increase
counties shape of the revenue
from 1919 to 25 per cent.
Since these were the most in
tensively debated points during
emergency consideration of the bill
in the lower house, its, return there
by the senate, in amended form.
was expected to precipitate the first
serious clash between the two
houses.
Observers predicted the difference
in opinion would not stop the bill.
They pointed out that indefinite
extension of the tax measure meant
practically nothing, since the 1899
legislature could repeal it, anyway.
The increased share to counties,
however. may prove a temporary
stumbling block.
The tax. in effect for the past
year. replaced local personal prop
erty taxes on motor vehicles. The
state levies a tax Of SITS per $100
valuation on motor vehicles. and re-
turns 25 per cent to the cities and
1915 per cent to the counties. Under
the senate amendments, cities would
receive one-fourth, counties one
fourth and the state one-half OF
the approximately $4,000, 900 collect
ed annually.
