Travel Tax
Cut Pushed

Further efforts will be made
in the current Congress for re-
peal Of the Federal excise tax
on passenger fares.
The National Conference for
Repeal Of Transportation Taxes
plans to launch q renewed drive
for elimination Of the 10 per
cent tax on all transportation
tickets.
The move was partially sue
cessful last year, when Congress
voted to reduce the travel tax
from 10 to s per cent effective
next July /.
The Congress described the
wartime tax-passed at the
time to discourage travel when
facilities were needed for vital
war transportation-as dis
criminatory, infiationary, eco
nomically unsound and not in
the public interest" Others
have described 1t as the "See
America Last Tax"
The tax is currently In effect
on all domestic fares-by air,
bus or train.
There is overwhelming evi-
dence the public wants this tax
removed" q conference state
ment declared. There is also
growing sentiment in Congress
to this effect, and 1t Is earnestly
hoped our national legislators
will take prompt action in
eliminating the tax that is add
ing tremendously to the cost of
passenger transportation. :"

In 1885 and 1912, outbursts

toward the port Of Hilo. The
flow was checked by United

dropped high explosives at
strategic spots.

Mexico Fare
Savings Set

Rail travellers from the
United States to Mexico can
now buy through tickets for
approximately the same rate
they paid for two tickets before.
Canny passengers travelling
in times past via the Laredo
Nuevo Laredo gateway bought
a ticket to Laredo, then at
Nuevo Laredo bought another
ticket good on the Mexican road
at a lower rate than would have
applied had they bought it in
the United States as a through
fare.
Missouri Pacific says pas
sengers no longer need buy two
tickets to gain the saving.
The new fare, MoPac says,
applies on all through tickets,
and offers the lowest available
fare. Savings range from
$11.36 on one way coach tickets
to $29.25 on round trip tickets
