S Besides paying a record high in gasoline taxes to the state, Illinois motorists paid the tidy sum' of $12,- 425,000 in federal gasoTine taxes to Uncle Sam last year," Mr. Primm pointed out. "The federal gasoline tax was enacted in 1932 as a temporary emergency tax when internal revenue was less than one and one-half billion dollars. It was understood at that time that the tax, which unfairly invades the field of stat$ taxation and subjects motorists to a double tax penalty, would be removed when federal internal receipt^ returned to their predepression level. But in 1937, internal revenue receipts were at an all-time high of $6,700,000,000, or more than four billion dol ara above 1932. Ob-' viously, the time is long overdue for the removal of such double taxation on the already overtaxed motorists of Illinois." Firat Iron Furnace In U. S.
