Show NEW RECORD SET IN COLLECTION OF AUTO, GAS FEES Revenues reaching an aggregate of $1,125,000 have been collected for various state funds during the quarter ending Monday by the secretary sec-retary of state's office. This will constitute the biggest quarterly business of the secretary's office for .all time, business having been unusually high for the past quarter due, it is believed, to the exceptionally open winter season causing a greater percentage of automobile owners to use their cars than ever before. This has been reflected in increased in-creased revenues in two respects first through increased gas sales and increased tax revenues because be-cause of increased gas consumption consump-tion and secondly the earlier registration reg-istration than has been customary heretofore. |
