State Tax Collections Scar
To Six Billion i'm 1916

The nationwide total of $780,
100000 in state tax collections for
the fiscal year 1916 scored an all
time high and continued the uninter-
rupted upward trend begun in 1887,
the council of state governments re-
ported. Total collections in the IL
months preceding July, 1916, repre-
sent a 6.2 per cent increase over
receipts for fiscal 1915 according to
calculations based on bureau of
census figures. This years total also
marks 34.7 per cent gain over 1941
collections, and exceeds 1887 col
lections by 77.2 per cent.
Payroll, general sales, motor fuel
and income taxes account for 61.6
per cent of all 1916 state tax rev.
enues. Payroll taxes alone account
ed for ia per cent of state tax re-
ceipts, totalling 1903 billion dollars.
Though the biggest single item in
1916 collections, this figure is still
somewhat less than last years 1.25
billion dollar total. The decline is
accounted for by reduction of over
time pay, shift of war-workers to-
lower-paid jobs, and effect of strikes
throughout industry.
Motor fuel tax receipts, following
termination of gasoline and tire ra-
tioning, surged upward to second
place in nationwide state tax. col
lections for 1916 with a 900, million
dollar total, greatest since 1925 942
million dollar all-time high. The
1916 total amounts to 1871 per cent
of the total state tax revenues for
the year.

Industry Provides Health
Aids to Protect Employees

Improved drugs and methods are
being used today in industrial medi-
cine to assure the health and COM
fort of employees. One of the most
modern innovations is Ford's mobile
X-ray unit. Manned by four trained
technicians, it is designed to X-ray
the chests of employees at regular
intervals. The X-ray unit is housed
in specially-built trailer and is
moved from department to depart
ment.
The company's industrial health
laboratory has developed many pro-
tective skin creams for use by work
ers on jobs where possible limitations
might arise. Last year IS, 1000 pounds

Rich Peruvian Mountain
Region Yields Petroleum

Production of petroleum in a new
Peruvian field on the Andes east
ern slope increases commercial in
terest in a remote region rich in
mineral and plant resources. Peru's
so-called Montana (mountain re-
glon contains half the republics
100000 square miles, but only about
per cent of it's population.
Peru's northern coastal desert has
long yielded petroleum in large vol
ume. Oil was not discovered in the
eastern area until 1889. Small
amounts were foated down tribu-
taries of the Amazon river to Iqui-
tos, and on to the Atlantic, says the
National Geographic society. This
route is still the Montana's most
practical outlet. A pipeline over the
Andes is dream of the future.
Iquitos can be reached by ocean,
going ships that draw up to IA feet
and ascend the Amazon 1900 miles
westward from the Atlantic ocean.
Boats drawing less than 9 feet can
go 500 miles farther upstream. If
the United States had a similar
east : west waterway, freighters
from New York could sail westward
beyond Denver. It was the demand
for rubber after 1880 that devel-
oped the port of Iquitos, which still
ships wild rubber, some tobacco,
cotton, coffee and wakes. The city
has grown to 10000 population.
Dickenson County herald. [volume] (Clintwood, Va.) 1939-195?, 1947-01-02

OF these creams were manufactured
IN the company's own pharmaceu-
teal laboratory. The use of these
creams and rigid hygienic investi-
cation and methods have brought
cases of skin inflammation to the
lowest in the industry.
Ford employees continually are
under health supervision by the COM
pany's hospital staff. Besides the
portable X-ray unit, the company
has a rehabilitation program which
assures that suitable employment
will be provided for men recovering
from illness and for those workers
with disabilities or allergies. At the
direction of the medical transfer
department four inspectors tour the
Rouge plant constantly seeking as
signments for employees who have
physical deficiencies. The use of
penicillin and sulfa drugs has re-
duced the possibility of future dis
ability through infection.
