Gasoline Taxpayers Warned Against
Highway Fund Raids For General Use

Howard B. Driscoll, Execu
tive Secretary of the Massa-
chusetts Petroleum Industries
Committee today announced
that Massachusetts, is fast ap-
preaching the time when its
collections each year from the
state gasoline tax alone will
equal the total annual tax re-
ceipts from all sources during
a year in the not too distant
past.
He explained that total re-
ceipts from the state from all
sources in 1888 amounted to
only S70,932,5O9 derived
from: liquor taxes, franchise
taxes, income taxes, inherit
tance taxes, insurance company
taxes, motor vehicle fees, poll
taxes, property taxes, and
stock transfer taxes as well as
from the gasoline tax. BY
comparison, the state gasoline
tax alone brought in more
than $50 million during the
fiscal year 1854. Every year
since 1914 state gas receipts
have shown an increase.
Certainly more and more
revenue is coming in" com
mented Mr.. Driscoll, ''but con-
versely that means people are
paying more and more Fed

tomotive products have also
been increased drastically dur
