This case alone shows that more
net revenues can be obtained un-
der Ohio's present tax structure
than under costly system such
as the weight-distance tax has
Saddled upon New York.
1 have great respect for Sena-
tor Bartunek and his sincere de-
sire to be good public servant.
With respect to the ton-mile or
weight-distance tax, however, |
think he has been the victim of a
barrage of misinformation.
In this series of articles I have
endeavored to show that there are
three fundamental reasons why a
: third-Structure tax should not be
imposed on Ohio's economy.
y A third-structure tax is basi-
cally unsound where weight and
distance are used as a calculating
medium.
p A third-structure tax breaks
downeand destroys reciprocal rela-
tions with other states.
81 The cost of administration
is prohibitive.

Ohio Fuel Plans
Storage Wells

More than So million will be
spent this year by the Ohio Fuel
Gas Company in drilling wells to
store gas for delivery in cold
weather, Frank Manley, Ohio Flu
els local manager, disclosed to-
day.
Manley said the utility will
drill 1873 storage wells in 1858
Some of the drilling has already
started It will continue through
out the year, the local manager
said.
Sixty of the wells will be in
new storage area in Ashland,
Wayne and Holmes counties.
Their chief use this year will be
to take in gas delivered from the
southwestern states during the
warm weather.
SiXty-five of the wells will be
in present storage areas near
Mansfield and in Hooking Coun-
ty. They will make possible fas-
ter delivery of gas on cold days
when the demand is high.
Thirteen of the wells probably
will be "duds". Manley said past
experience has shown about 13
cut of the 1873 storage wells will
be unusuabIe. He said condition
of sand and rock for storage
can't be determined fully until

Ottawa County news. (Port Clinton, Ohio) 1931-1956, 1953-02-20

The New York Times, in mid
October issue, gave a very lucid
explanation of the first years op-
Grafton of the ton-mile tax in that
state. The following facts are per-
tinent:
They had spent million dol
lars, had 800 employees, and now
have started the installation of 100
weighing stations. The initial cost
of each of these stations is $18,-
500, or a total construction cost
of $2,220,000. They contemplate
three men working in 8-hour shifts
the use of nine men per station
for total of 24-hour service.
Their estimated cost for operat-
ing these stations is $4,000 an
nually per station. This amounts
to total expense of So, 10000 for
operation alone and is in addition
to the million dollars spent for
administration in the first year.
This approximates Az million
dollars annually for their admin
istrative costs, not counting the
cost of constructing the weighing
stations.
Let us take look at what this
would mean here in Ohio. 1t is es-
timated by some that approx
mately $13,00O,000 will be needed
for highway construction over and
above 1-cent gasoline tax and
the present license tag fees.
Ohio has the same number of
municipalities of $4,000 population
and over, as New York. We have
many ports of entry into the
State than New York has, and to
operate collecting and enforce
ment agencies for the ton-mile or
weight-distance tax in Ohio would
conservatively cost $5,O00,OOO on
the basis of New York's operation
and contemplated operation.
This is too high price to pay
for the collection of $4,000
1t wouldS constitute a braZen di-
version of public revenues and
would benefit only those who wish
to build up a political patronage
machine.
In Senator Bartunek'S last arti-
Gle he stated: "State Highway De-
partment officials estimate that
more than 40 per cent of the over
the-road trucks now using Ohio's
highways are from out of state.
These trucks pay no license fees
here, and the only tax we might
collect from them are on the gas
oline they might purchase in the
state"
This statement borders on the
ridiculous. All interstate truck
transportation must qualify before
the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion. In 1851 there were SAL 1,00C
such vehicles qualified in the
United States which represented
about l per cent of all the vehicles
using our highways. (To this
amount should be added the nom
inal number used by private con
Germs incident to their own oper
ations.)
AS case in point, he referred
to Riss & Company of Kansas City
wherein he stated that the firm
over a period of two and one-hali
years had made 10O,O79 trips anc
inferred that they were getting /;
"free ride" In checking the rec
ords at the Motor Transportation
Division of the Public Utilitie.

Riss & Company from July 1, 1852
to January /, 1853, paid $37, ,072.5!
in that six months period. On tina
basis Kiss is paying at the rate o
$203 per day for 365 days of tn,

ture tax such as the ton-mile or
weight-distance tax. I have previ-
ously pointed out the inequities of
this tax, how it will cause break
down of reciprocity, and its ad-
verse effects upon small indus
tries, particularly those handling
and processing farm products. |
referred in particular to the exper-
ience of an Ohio creamery COM
pany under the New York ton
mile tax.
Senator Bartunek said of his
proposal for such a tax in Ohio;
'It is generally assumed that the
program will be patterned much
like that now in effect inn New
York State" Now let US review
what is happening in New York.
