'This will be done in part whether gasoline tax goes into effect or ct, but for this suggestion to come rom communities that have been fortunate enough to have their tart of the road program completed ap- tears to be very unreasonable. "The gasoline tax would enable the currying on of a modest road build ii.g program and the state could con. tinue to receive at least a portion or its share of federal aid." Continuing in arguments for the gasoline tax, the governor declared the state has the machinery necessary for its collection without adding a single employe to the payroll. A dual srgument for a continuation of goo.i toad building and imposition of the gasoline tax aJvanced by the govern or follows: Taxes for Tourists. "It is estimated that the cost ot Tunning the average automobile is $100 per 1,000 miles. Therefore, the amount of the gasoline tax is saved many times over to the automobile user in reduced cost of operating his car on good roads." The thousands of dollars possible o collect from tourists was men tioned in the message in support of the gasoline tax. The governor esti mates $100,000 will be collected an nually ,4rom tourists. He also point eijtm. that 16 states, including demo cratic . and - former Nonpartisan league domains, have such a tax, and recommend it. Governor McKclvie pointed to ac J tion taken by representative bankers it the Omana meeting in declining to recommend a change .in the bank guaranty law. No Change in Bank Laws. "On account of such action, and inasmuch as it is the state bankers who are obliged to pay the draft up on the guaranty fund, I am not dis posed to recommend the considera tion of any amendments," he said. The governor said, relative to pro viding a means of redrafting Ne braska's revenue laws at the next ' regular session: -' k V i he ' constitutional convention opened the -way for making exten sive amendments in revenue' laws. The last legislature undertook a por tion of this work and provided for an intangible property tax. . Much remains to be done, iand it appears to me it woutd be wise foresight to make some provision now through, the tax commissioner's department for a careful study of this question during the present year, so opera tions of the present laws may be carefully understood and intelligent recommendations made at the next regular session."
