Legislative Sidelines by BERNIE CAMP Information Director Nebraska Farm Bureau Legislative Sidelines Is made available to your local newspaper as a service of the Nebraska Farm Bureau Federation. Opin ions expressed are not neces sarily those of this newspaper). Federal Aid Misconceptions Many The average citizen under stands little of the mysteries involved in federal aid for high way construction. For example, three popular misconceptions are: 1 1 That federal aid funds come from federal gasoline taxes, automobiles, parts, ac cessories and similar excise taxes. ' 2) That federal aid funds are "free" money which no one has to provide. 3 1 That federal aid is limitless and all a state has to do is pro vide matching funds to secure tederal aid. First, federal aid funds do not come from ear-marked gasoline and excise taxes. All federal taxes go into a general fund. Federal highway aid funds are appropriated from the general fund. Therefore, federal aid has no relationship whatsoever to the amount of federal taxes collected on gasoline and new automobiles and parts. Second, federal aid is not "free" money. Federal aid is tax money, coming from the general fund of the United States, which is provided for through the taxes every citi zen pays on income, new auto mobiles, excise duties on food and clothing, and all other va riety of federal taxes. In 1949. Nebraskans paid $146 million in federal income taxes; $50 mil-F lion in corporation income and profits taxes; $28 million in em ployment taxes which included carriers taxes, and $52 million in miscellaneous internal reve nue. That is a total of $276 mil lion paid by Nebraskans in 1949 in tederal taxes which went into the general fund of the United States. Third, federal aid for highway building is not limitless. Con gress sets a limitation on the federal aid for highway pur poses. In 1949, the federal ap propriation for highway aid was approximately $450 million. Ne braska s share of that appropri ation was approximately $7,500. 000. No matter how much Ne braska sets aside in state funds for federal matching, the gen eral fund of the United States will make available only the sum authorized. Federal aid funds are provid ed for three classifications of roads: a) primary; b second ary, and c urban, which are a part of federally approved high way systems. Nebraska has 5 552 miles of primary roads which are on the federal aid highway system. Of this total. 5,433 miles is in rural areas and 114 miles on urban streets. In ad dition, 9,958 of secondary roads are designated as part ot the) iederai-aia system. rne sec ondary roads are feeders to the primary system generally. The urban streets are those which carry highways through cities. The federal funds made avail able for matching with state and local funds are also allocated by the federal government by types of roads on which they are to be used. Nebraska was apportion ed $3,944,850 for primary road matching during 1949; $2,785, 550 for secondary matching, and $695,466 for urban matching. During the same year, Nebraska spent $3,098,941 of federal funds on primary roads; $3,666,794 on secondary roads, and $123,883 on urban roads. In the secondary classification the expenditures included funds allocated previ ous to 1940 but not used until then. During 1949 matching "federal funds were used in building 402.1 miles of primary and secondary roads. No urban roads were built because the portion of the fund used was for preliminary engi neering and planning. Federal aid funds are avail able only for expenditure on designated federal aid systems, and in general must be match ed by an equal amount of state or local funds. Federal aid may not be used for highway main tenance. Information included here is based upon statements contain ed in "Highway Statistics 1949" published by the U. S. Depart ment of Commerce bureau of public roads. A Classified Ad in The Journ nal costs as little sis 35c.
