The gas tax is nothing but an expediency tax adopted because it i3 the easiest way to raise money and because superficial arguments in its favor seem plausible to public. It is not equal taxation and no argument can make it so.

Why not make it 0 cents a gallon or 5 cents a gallon and remove all annual automobile license taxes? The theory that the gas tax will make the tourist pay more money in the state will act as a boomerang. The tourists who now spend millions of each of the coast states will rebel at exorbitant gas taxes and as Florida has repealed its inheritance tax to attract capital to that state, so will other state repeal their gas taxes in order to attract tourists away from states which sandbag them the minute thy cross the state line. The public wants tax reduction and it wants equal taxation. Shifting taxes from one shoulder to the other or from one class of citizens to another class, while constantly collecting a larger aggregate amount per capita, is simply piling up trouble for the future.

One of the most serious problems facing the world is that aised in the question. How can v.e keep the girls on the farm? It is one of the hall marks of civilization that so many girls are orced into the big cities to seek their fortune. Probably no more daughters of the farm come to misfortune n the big ciffities than do the city girls or the girls from the small pip l',WTi!"I,l',"j!' nii'tnt!!'j!l .owns who work for a living.
