Oil Men Meet
In Jacksonville;
Oppose Tax Rise
Jacksonville ? Oil men from
Onslow, Craven, and Carteret Coun
ties went on record at a recent
meeting here against any further
increases in the state gasoline tax.
J. K. Maultsby. chairman of the
Onslow County Petroleum Indus
tries Committee, presided.
Principal speakers were S. Gil
mer Sparger, executive secretary
of the North Carolina Petroleum
Industries Committee, and Hardin
Kimrey, chairman of the legisla
tive Committee of the North Caro
lina Oil Jobbers Association.
Attending from this county were
T. T. "Tom" Potter, chairman of
the Carteret County Petroleum In
dustries Committee, Beaufort, and
P H. Geer. Morehead City
In his talk, Mr. Sparger stated.
"The state and federal taxes on
gasoline take more than $09,000,000
annually from North Carolina mo
torists." He also pointed out, "The
state tax of 7 cents, inspection tax
of Vi of a cent, and the federal
tax of 2 cents add up to a total
of 9^i cents on each gallon of gas j
olino ? which is equivalent to a
41 per cent sales tax."
Mr. Kimrey discussed the over
all tax burden in this state, and
asserted, "The gasoline tax is one
place where we should hold the
line. If the gasofine tax is in
creased in North Carolina," he
pointed out, "this state will have
the questionable distinction of hav
ing the highest gasoline tax in the
nation.
"It will exceed the state of Vir
ginia by 2Vj cents per gallon, and
South Carolina by 1% cents per
gallon, and can be expected to have
an adverse effect on gasoline sales
? particularly in the border coun
ties."
Following the program, there
was a discussion concerning the
suggested gasoline tax increase and
other anticipated legislation.
