Lafe TOWNSHIP OFFICIALS ATTACK REPORT ON OMR STATE ROADS Rural People Opposed . To Tax Increase Unless Local Highways Benefit •KCharles (Chuck) Miller of McHenry is a member of the Illlnota Township Officials Association, which haa appointed a legislative committee which attacka the Griffenhagen A Assoclatea report that was recently submitted to the Illinois Highway and Traffic Problems Commission. The Illinois Township group deals in detail with Iliinoia rural road problems In their report which won favorable commendation from the state commission. The' report was read by G. E. Casper of LeRoy township in £oone county. Excerpts of the township report follows: Recommendations under Chapter 12, Page 7, aa to financing are injust and ahould be revoked and stricken from the records becauae rural people will never agree to an Increase In taxes for roads on the state level In the future unless they receive a portion of It for local highways. We suggest that If the motor fuel tax Is to be raised at leaat 2c per gallon with the following distributions: one cent to the townships, one-third of a cent to state primary syatems, one-third of a cent to the county highway aystem and one-third of a cent to the city street systems, with a small percent of the townahlps' and counties' share being earmarked for new bridge conatruction. * Rural People Pay "Justification of our reasoning in this distribution la that rural people, aince the creating of all higher branches ot highways, have helped pay for the building and maintenance of these systems but have never received any of the Users' tax to help the upkeep of local roads. We also feel that the state and cities need more revenue whereby to meet the problem of Increaaed coat of taking care and building their svstema. We also believe that if they will aet their own house in Assoclatea Is another step toward Sweater centralisation of government and a move against home rale. It is high time lawa are passed whereby the government nt stnte levels begin to report to the people--a practice now followed by local governmenta. "On Chapter 12, Page 8, the Griffenhagen report recommends that the Highway Department be separated from the office of Director of Public Works and Buildings. This we very vigorously oppose.' Suggestions Hnde ,"We would like to suggest that the atate highway system be put under the supervision of a Board of Commision composed of businessmen so the engineers would have someone to report to other than another engineer. We have found from actual experience that th* average engineers are educated and schooled as engineers only, and not aa administrators; thus in most cases engineers have proven to be incapable of carrying forth an administrative program with economical results. "We are strongly opposed and so are the citizens of our communities in general, to the counties taking over local roads. In most instances the counties have more to do now than they can accomplish and it will only lead to a more costly and extravagant road aystem. "We, and the people of our community, know and can prove that the township system can produce more roads and better maintained roads than any other road system in the state of Illinois for the money expended. All we are asking Is that a small portion of the Users', or whatever other tax Is agreed upon to raise funds for highways, be returned to our people back home. With this revenue together with our local revenues toed by law whereby we can raise a little more tax locally, we can construct and maintain our town order with the present state reve- I system. We can do It nue they are receiving, together anJ ™or* „ •attatactorlly with the increase of one-third of a ^ ° c*n done ,rom • county cnt th., «, th.lr "The townshipb of Illinois spent around 12 mllllona dollars annually on their 76,000 miles of township roads. The counties about 11 million dollars on the oounty system taking care of 20,000 miles of roads. The state expends approxitqately 87 mllllona dollars on their 18,000 miles of road system." "By these figures you can readily sef the townships spend an aver- •f* of fits per mile--all of this bH(Mt paid from local funds. The cqaaty spends around $100 per mile, much of which is paid from gaii taxes, while the state spends better than $700 per mile, constituting of revenue from license fees aad gaa taxee." "We thank you." "The Township Offl*als of Illinois Legislative Committee: G. E. going. "We oppose the Griffenhagen recommendation of licensing passenger cars on a flat fee basis and we would recommend that the preaent system of licensing be retained. We believe that the driver's license fee should not be raised over one dollar and we think that the recommendation made by the Griffenhagen report that this fee be two dollars Is unfair and would work a hardship on families where their are several drivers. We advocate thla recommendation be stricken from the records. If some way ctaaat he found whereby the state can adminiater this branch of government at a cost ander two dollara, then the whole driver's license law ahould be abolished. Recommendation on Chapter 12, Page 8, aa to local officials making reporta to some authorised state agency la an extremely bad and v 1 c I o u a recommendation. This recommendation of Griffenhagen A Capron, Chairman; J. G. Albright, Decatur; Lee Cornwell, Harvard; Joeeph Meyer, Broese; C. A. Leathgnnan, Woodland; Elmer Thbor, Peoria."
