GOVERNMENT OWES GET â€"$500,000,000 °T AX ES ‘Therefore, Should Continue Its Federal Highway Policy, Says Head of Motor Assoâ€" PAGE FOURTEEN The federal government "owes" the motorists of the nation more than $500,000,000 and this forms a strickâ€" % agusiiee onl gans LE db Addoiansm en seb esnt ing argument for continuation of the federal aid highway policy, according to Charles M. Hayes, president of the Chicago Motor club, which is affiliated with the American Automobile assoâ€" ciation. J ksm Mr. Hayes bases this statement on the amount of money paid into the coffers of the federal government in the form of war excise tax on autoâ€" mobiles and the amount expended by Uncle Sam in building federal aid highways. Mesetoee se o es MoRUmEtel "Since 1928," he continued, "moâ€" | torists as a class have paid the federâ€""| al government in the form of excisc‘ taxes on automobiles and parts, the | sum total of approximately $1,100,â€" | 000,000. Since the beginning of fed:| eral aid the government has expendâ€" | ed. in round number, over $600,000,â€" | 000 as its share for the constrnctiun' of federal aid highway projects. { Expends 50 Per Cent | "This means that the government has spent just a little more than 50i per cent of the amount of motor veâ€" hicle revenue paid by motorists as a | class to the treasury department. At . this rate the government still ‘owes'. the motorists approximately $500,000,â€" ; 000. With this balance sheet there | can be little doubt that they will line . up strong for continuation of the fedâ€". eral aid policy on perhaps an expandâ€" ed. scale." Mr. Hayes pointed out that the war excise tax on motor cars Was repealâ€" ed at the last session of Congress, largely through the organized efforts â€" of the A. A. A.. with a wesultant sayâ€" ing to car owners of over $60,000,000 annually.
