OO [PLANS MADE FOR CORN
BORER CLEAN-UP CAMPAIGN
Plans for the most extensive pro-
ject ever undertaken in the history
of the northern states for curbing
the destruction by an insect pest,
are now in the making.
Reports from both the State De-
partment of Agriculture at Harris-
burg and the United States Depart-
{ment of Aguiculture at Washington
indicate that the $10,000,000 cam-
paign against the European corn
borer in New York, Pennsylvania,
Ohio, Michigan, and Indiana is go-
ing forward as fast as the legisla-
tion in these states will permit.
The Federal Act provides that
the $10,000,000 appropriation will
not become available until the nec-
essary legislation, now pending,
passed in the legislatures of the five
states, This legislature will give
the State departments of Agricul-
is
and compulsory clean-up re-
together with authority to
such powers to the Federal
under the Act.

LANCASTER AUTO CLUB
OPPOSES A THREE CENT TAX
In a speech, broadcast from sta- |
tion WKJC, at Lancaster, Mr. S. E.
Gable, President of the Lancaster
Automobile Club, attacked the pro-
posed increase of one cent per gal-
lon on gasoline as unnecessary. He
stated that behind this increase in
gas tax is the purpose of having
other interests escape and also,
they say, the need for more money
for road building purposes, and add
the face that the increase would
build = approximately one hundred
miles in each county. This is only
a promise and judging the future
by the past, road building promises
have only been fulfilled when pre-
petuation in power compelled it to
be done. As for broken promises
you all remember how unofficially
the promise was made in 1918
when the first $50,000,000 bond is-
sue was to be voted on, that the in-
terest and sinking fund would be
paid from the general fund of the
State Treasury for the ereason that
{improved highways benefit all the
pay for them.
Good roads all—those
ride in busses, those whose
land values are enhanced, mer-
chants whose delivery system ex-
tends far and wide, all non-owners
of motor cars, who ride with others,
in fact—everybody.
| A three cent tax on gasoline at a
price of 24c¢ per gallon means that
|you pay 12% per cent interest on
the purchase of a business commod-
ity. The only kind of a gasoline
tax that might be countenanced
would be a straight gasoline tax
{with a nominal license fee only cov-
lering the cost of production and ov-
erhead in distribution. The addi-
(tional cent of tax is an imposition
lon the farmer who uses his tractor
{for various occupations on the
farm. Why further hit the farmer
{who is already overtaxed?
| Contracts made last fall, call for
|upward of $10,000,000 to be paid
|for the second $50,000,000 bond is-
isue, therefore the road building will
not stop. The present administra-
| tion will spend $13,000,000 or $14,-
{000,000 put under contract by its
| predecessors.
Why, instead of burdening the
people with an additional cent of
(gas tax, not collect the present 2
{cent tax at the source, from a doz-
len firms, instead of from upwards
[of 10,000 retailers, which means
|the employment of a young army
|of office holders, such as clerks, in-
| spectors, ete., which eats up in sal-
nearly 3% cent per gallon
alone and then in addition not re-
ceive any returns from some, as
well as lose the revenue from gaso-
line bootleggers, who buy in large
quantities outside of the state
where no tax exists and bring it in-
to Pennsylvania and newspaper re-
porters hint that one large Philadel-
phia corporation alone, through
purchasing gasoline in New Jersey.
in bulk and hauling it across the
state line, side steps the payment of
nearly $100,000 in tax. - A full cent
could be saved and no addition
levy necessary if these evils were
corrected.
It is time for all motorists to pro-
test against this legislation and
send letters, telegrams and protests
to the Governor, your members of
legislature including the State Sen-
| ators, stating that you are opposed
| to any increase in the gas tax and
do this at once.
| The state has now $30,000,000
{balance in its treasury and our own
dealer old Lancaster county, nearly
[$300,000. Let’s use some of that
|first, then, if necessary, levy extra
| tax.
| A gasoline tax may not mean
|much to the rich corporation or in-
|dividual, but it means much to the
|small business man who has found
the use of one or more trucks nec-
essary and to the man without
wealth, who has acquired a small
automobile to give his family pleas-
ure in life, So d®Weat the gas tax
