Ton-Mile Tax Battle Looms
LINCOLN— Opponents of the j
proposed ton-mile tax on trucks'
and intercity buses are laying
groundwork for possible action
to try and keep the proposal off
the November ballot.
Secretary of State Frank Marsh
ruled last week petitions to put
i the proposal on the ballot had
more than enough signatures.
The petitions were filed by the
Committee for Better Roads
Through Fair Taxation
Marsh held the proposal
should go on the November
ballot. If approved by voters it
would become law. The pro
posal applies to trucks of 10
tons or more and buses weigh
ing 28.000 pounds or more.
Deputy Secretary of State Ro
iend Luedtke said he believes
opponents have until October 17
to take legal action in the matter.
Meanwhile, the powerful big
truck groups are sounding the
battle cry and are stirring up all
truck owners, large and small, to
battle the committee.
Three foreign - owned truck
lines currently pound U.S. high
way 20 through O’Neill and do
not even pay gas tax. They pav
I an “in lieu" tax because they are
diesel. One of the foreign lines is
owned by Hindus in India, two
bv Canadians.
It was estimated three thou
sand persons circulated ton-mile
petitions, putting in about 20
thousand man hours.
The question of a ton-mile tax
was voted down in the last two
legislatures by the powerful
truck lobby, now- regarded as the
strongest in the state—if not the
strongest, second only to the
teacher lobby.
C. E. Beals, secretary-treasur
qi of the Committee for Better
Roads, said the ton-mile tax is
i “fair and just” and is not intend
ed to "soak the trucks.”
Beals said the tax. if passed,
will “vastly improve Nebraska
roads in a few years ’"

Controversial Mr. Steen—
The new executive secretary
of the state game commission
has stirred up a hornet's nest.
The buzzing began when Mel
vin (“Mel") Steen, commission
secretary, confirmed he had or
dered Game Warden Harland
Huppert of Falls City to with
draw a complaint filed against
Game Commissioner Don Robert
son of North Platte.
Huppert’s complaint alleged
Robertson shot a quail from a
road near Tecumseh on Novem
ber 11, 1955. Robertson said lie
shot away from the road, then
walked onto the road.
Hearing on the complaint had
been postponed once. Steen said
he ordered Huppert to drop the
complaint and told him insubord
ination would lead to Huppert’s
dismissal.
“We are not going to clutter up
the courts with trivial com
plaints,” Steen said, "but we are
going to prosecute people who
deserve punishment. Don Rob
ertson is not one of them. He did
no harm to any person, property
or thing He didn't hurt the wild
life conservation by shooting a
single quail. This is a type of
offense that is commonly handled
with a warning."
•sen George Syas of Omaha,
chairman of a legislative coun
cil committee studying the
commission and game and fish
laws, said: “Mr. Steen s theory
of law enforcement, in my
opinion, will lead to an n
crease of road hunting, ui thai
the hunter knows he may now
receive only a w arnlng.
\dded Syas “It may b«
healthful if the leS>slature would
pass a law forcing the execuuv
secretary to be confirmed by this
body after said appointment by
theNow,Vear^i'ntment is by the
the salary paid
?hrw« governor
Steen said he understands that
some people are^Rotertson case,
his action in the Rot^r«o p
He said more than 30
everybody but m that
years of experience tells me
it is impossible. Steen
•Heg"Mavgl say it is not a top
s"! ■ came directors go. in
these United States but l.|ti^1J
pretty good salary.
^But^then, I'm a pretty good
director, relativesly speaking.
01 He said before he came on he

bargain when they see it," Steen
said.

Hospital Money Short—
Nebraska has been notified of
iti share of federal funds for
Hiil-Burton hospital construction
for the fiscal year of 1957. But
it’s far short of the amount need
ed.
Verne Pangborn. head of the
hospital division of the state
health department, said Nebras
ka's share is only $125,000 more
than the $1,084,302 received for
the !956 fiscal year.
Of the total, $300,000 is ear
marked for specialized medical
facilities. The proposed new
Children's Center in Omaha, will
take all that money, and already
has received $300,000 more.
Applications for federal hospi
tal aid are on file from St. Fran
cis of Grand Island. Seward Me
morial, St Mary’s of Nebraska
City. S* Joseph’s rehabilitation
unit in Omaha, Immanuel Dea
