Record for Gas Taxes

Motorists OF Maryland are certainly
establishing real records in payment
of gasoline taxes. During July Mary
land motorists purchased 25,854,832
gallons of gasoline and of necessity
paid $1,O43, 1929 in gasoline taxes
to the State at the rate of cents per
gallon.
The Federal government with its
tax at the rate of one cent per gallon
likewise collected 258,548.32. Thus
the motorists of Maryland paid a
gross sum of $1,000, 741.6O in gas
taxes during July.
1t is no wonder that the motorist is
awakening to the fact that the taxes
he pays are all out of proportion to
the benefits he receives. While he pays
he is forced to drive over highways
that could be a lot better. A million
dollars should certainly build a lot
of new highways and keep up a
powerful lot of old ones.
Yet the Roads Commission has la
Dor difficulties, a number of counties
are in the red. There might be rea-
son, but it would be enlightening to
hear of it.
With the coming of autumn the lion
hunters are becoming more scarce
upon the streets of Oakland. There
hasn't been person in the past two
days walk up the street dressed in
shorts and wearing a covering on his
head that never fails to remind one
of the African continent.
***
Speaking of clothing brings to mind
the thoughts on this subject in the
Rotarian Magazine. Mems clothes
have hardly changed in a century. The
only radical change has been the
switch from the diversified coats and
understood trousers to understood
coats and diversified trousers.
The writer offers few suggestions:
Men wear entirely too much cloth
ing. They can keep warm in winter
with half the bulk. So shear at least
foot from the length of our topcoats.
Scientists say that two thin garments
are warmer than one thick one.
Shear off that useless appendage,
the shirt-tail, and snip off the buttons
On our coat sleeves. They were put
there originally to keep one from US
ing the sleeve as a handkerchief.
Shear off the cuffs from trousers
which are simply collectors Of dust,
dirt, grass and bits of paper.
Away with the double-breasted
coat, the stiff bosomed dress shirt;
stiff top hats, stiff heavy brogues.
Stiffness results in STIFFNESS, the Ro-
tartan writer thinks.
With another clip of the shears he
wants US to do away with long trous-
ers and substitute knickerbockers.
After the first hours wear the bags
in the knees of most trousers look like
a case of mumps in the wrong place.
While many people do not really
enjoy looking at mans Adams ap-
pie, his ankle or skinny legs, yet no
sacrifice is too great to make in the
name of comfort.
Now, that is something to think
about

Somebody out at the K. of P. picnic
on Monday, after hearing about the
airplane wreck near Friendsville on
Sunday night, and recalling a couple
of murders that had been committed
in that section during the past year,
remarked, "why, it's not even safe to
fly over Friendsville any more"
That community has been in the
limelight through unfortunate events.
1t doesn't reflect the true state of the
condition of the people there. By far
the most of the citizens of that section
are quiet, industrious, sensible, alert,
and law abiding. A lot of the county's
best people live there.
*-*-%
There is one thing needed badly in
that section, as also in Accident, and
that is an efficient telephone service.
The nearest telephone to Friendsville
is over nine miles away, at Markleys-
burg, Pa. In this day and age, that's
hardly believable. 1t is reassuring to
know that in all probability something
will be done about it.
H%%
The President, F. D. Roosevelt, will
deliver an address at the ceremony
commemorative the 150th anniversary
of the adoption of the Constitution of
the United States.
The affair should serve a useful
purpose. 1t may remind Washington
and also Mr.. Roosevelt that there is
such document.
