Expect S22l,lN
In Gasoline Tax

Tacoma's 1889 share in state gas
tax money was estimated at s22i,-
140 in a preliminary estimate pre-
pared by Lacey V. Murrow. state
highway director, in a communica-
ton to the city council Monday.
Murrow said the figures pre-
pared for all cities and towns of
the state were estimates which
might be helpful in preparation OF
1870 budgets.
As a result Of the action of the
last legislature, the sum estimated
for Tacoma is about 40 per cent
larger than this city has been re-
ceiving az its share Of the state
gasoline tax under the old law.
Cities shared in the fund on a
population basis with fixed per
capita allowance OF $50 per per
son. Cities and towns on this
basis utilized from 9 10 IL per
cent OF the total tax collected.
The new Law grants cities and
towns Is per cent Of the total
collection
MurroW's estimate Of S22l.i 40
for Tacoma this year compares
with approximately sl57 900 re-
ceived annually in recent years
Under the new Law 30 per cent
must be expended for maintenance
and 20 per cent for new construc-
