ATTEMPT 10 GET HIGHER GAS TAX Governor Asserts Highway Con- struction Will Se Curtailed by Referendum Highway construction in North Da- kota will, be curtailed to the extent Of from $800,000 to $1,000,000 as a result of the referendum of the four- cent gasoline tax measure, Governor George F. Shafer says in an article Prepared for publication in the August issue of the State High Buil- letin. Still more serious consequences will be felt if the measure by which the tax is increased from three to four cents a gallon fails of approval at the governor stated. The article follows: “The success of the referendum against the four-cent gas tax meas- ure, which prevented the law from going into effect on July Ist, will have the effect of seriously curtailing con- struction work on the state highway system for the remainder of this year. The extent of such curtailment wiil probably be between $800,000 and $: 000,000 in new construction projects. As‘a result, several new grading and graveling projects which the state highway department had planned on placing under contract for construc- tion this summer and fall will have to be deferred and about a half mil-| _AT YOUR GROCER _ r ROOT BE ablespoonfuls gar, add 1 teaspoonful of T&T oot ' Beer Extract.

That we are able to carry on a fairly large construction Program this year is due entirely to the federal emergency appropriation adopted by congress last December, under which North Dakota received @ loan of $1,298,000 with which to match the regular federal aid al- lotment of $2,000,000. This emer- gency appropriation, which we have drawn on to the maximum, expires on September 1, 1931.
