ADVICE TO JOE MOTORIST-BRIMONEY All over America, Jos Motorist and millions like him are getting ready for their annual summer vacation trip. Joe will pack his wife, kids, and a few suitcases into the family automobile and hit the highways, eager to see the nation's countless sites of scenic historical beauty, significance and educational importance. It's a great American custom, and one we gladly endorse. It would be only fair, however, to warn Joe that no mat ter which way he goes, he will find that the states are not kidding when they advertise, "Come and bring money." 'For the truth is that taxes on tourists are higher than ever before. Gasoline taxes alone will cost Joe and his fellow motorists more than $6 billion this year. Other highway user taxes run the bill up to more than $1:1 billion. Joe has read, of course, that 'nvetigations in some states indicate that large sums of money have been stolen or misspent in connection with today's large-Ta- le Dump Truck 1" ton Bids for the purchase of these trucks will be accepted at the office of the City Recorder until 5 p.m. Thursday, July 26, 1962" Bidders may purchase one or both.

Helper, Utah wife of $250 would not be payable. For the earnings over $1700 another $300 in .benefits would not be payable. Therefore, even though the man earned $20001 during the year, he and his wife would still be eligible for $1430 in social security benefits. Total income to them (wages and so cial security) is $3400. Now suppose he earns only $1300. The total benefits of $1060 added to the $1200, equals $3180, less income than he has if he earns the $2000! If you have any questions regarding this or any other questions about social security benefits) see the representative of the social security who will be at Price on July 31st from 9 a.m. to 3 pjn. He iwill be at the Court House in Price. JACK'S -- SALES RADiO-T- V - SERVICE . Expert service by i Technician trained by DeVry Technical and .

He had be:n advocating such legislation for a good many years camand had waged an all-o- ut paign for congressional approval this year. The 52 to 48 Senate vote tabling the proposal means that the battle will now 'be continued in the November election campaign. 'Many have thought all along that the Administration would be satisfied with an issue for the 1X2 elections recognizing that enactment in 1962 was not feas ible. But many poll3 taken by members of Congress have shown substantial majorities in opposition to the Kennedy plan. Administration Ieaders sought Senate approval of the medicare proposal by offering it as an amendment to a House-passe- d welfare bill.

Certain states, where highway funds are not protected by law, are diverting $400 million this year. This is not the end of the mo torist's problems, however. As Joe reads the papers, he finds some politicians urging that still more highway taxes be used to Improve rail transit facilities. Even more ridiculous is the sug gestion that, during rush hours, motorists be required to pay a toll in order to drive on roads already paid for through taxes. The goal would be to discourage oeople from driving their cars into cities, and to force them to use public transportation.
