QUESTION: What is the Kitzur
Shulchan Aruch?


ANSWER: The Kitzur Shul-
chan Aruch is an abbreviated
form of the Shulchan Aruch and
its later commentaries written by
Solomon Ganzfrield in Hungary
in the 10Th century. This edition
is a small one and contains mostly
the ritual laws which the average
Jew uses in his daily life at home
and in the synagogue, although
there are other laws mentioned
there too. This has been trans
lated into Yiddish and English.

pay on gasoline and, in view of the
fact you can get two-thirds more eff
cheney per gallon of diesel fuel and
since the breakup ratio of a big truck
is so much greater than that of auto
mobiles or light trucks, I believe he
tax should be well over 10 cents per
gallon on diesel fuel.
1 am sure this fair tax would bring
enough extra money to match federal
funds.
l can't see any other way that one
can tax the heavy truck fairly since
one win travel a thousand miles and
the next will top hundred thousand
would like to see Montana Farmer
Stockman carry an article on how
much diesel is taxed per gallon and
what the annual receipt is at the Helena
office.
l believe this would change the re-
suits in your recent balloting.-Edw
L. KOlar, Judith Basin County.
Editors Note: MOntana's tax ON
diesel fuel for highway use is 6
cents per gallon. In addition, fed
eral diesel tax is 21a cents per
gallon, according to information
from the State Board of EquaIiza-
tiOn. Gasoline is taxed cents per
gallon by the state, 2 cents by the
federal government. In 1858, Mon
tana's income from diesel fuel taxes
totaIed $3.50, 1852. Gasoline taxes
brought the state SIS, ,S5O.75
during the same period.)
Montana farmer-stockman., 1954-06-01
How Much Is
Diesel Tax?

I HAVE READ many letters in Mon
tana Farmer-Stockman, also articles
in other publications on highway
financing. These letters and articles
were written by every one from the
farmer to the governor of Montana
but, to date, I haven't heard what the
highway tax is on a gallon of diesel
fuel.
Our local station operator says he
is compelled to charge cents federal
tax for all diesel fuel that he knows
will be used on highways. This is a
far cry from the cents we have to
