Secretary of the Treasury Houston at Washington has informed Congress that must raise $290,000,000 from auto owners each year for the next four years. This is to be the "auto owners' part" of a total of two billions of dollars to be raised over , and above all present or past government income. . ' To. raise this amount, which is accepted as being correct, Mr. Houston has proposed and recommended to Congress that this two hundred and ninety, mil lions of dollars be raised from' a. tax on the automo bile industry, including all car owners of cars of all types;- If this is carried into jeTfect it means an , additional tax onevery car now in operation of approximately $62.00. " :'. ' t ; . " ' " ' ' "'.- ' It is manifestly unfair to single out one particular industry to bear such an immense proportion of this necessary increase in taxes. It can be said without a dissenting voice that the automobile manu hfacturiBrs, the automobile dealers and the thousands 'f you who comprise the automobile owning public, - are not only willing but anxious to pay your fair . proportion of any tax increase that is necessary to conduct our government, but when one industry, which has grown to be the third greatest in the country, is singled out exclusively of all others and an estimate made that this particular industry .if should pay the enormous amount of $290,000,000, we believe that you will agree that in your interests, a protestshould be entered not a protest against paying your just share, but a protest against paving an unfair share. The amount calculated to be paid by the automobile industry and owners based on the number of automobiles in se in the United States means that each car owner will be called upon to pay about $62.00 more than ever before. Understand that this is a national tax and has 11- a ' J i i t i i noining to ao wixn any proposea sxate taxes wnicn might help to get better roads or other improved conditions' for motorists. (There is also before Congress a bill to double the state tax on auto mobiles.) Secretary Houston's official position , makes it almost a certainty that his recommenda tion "will be carried out unless all who now own automobiles voice their strong protest. If you, Mr. Car Owner, want to save this, cut out the coupon below and mail it NOW to your Con gressman or Senator. ' r HOjER LYON IS YOUR REPRESENTATIVE IN CONGRESS; F. M. SIMMONS AND LEE S.
