Dems Demand Immediate Repeal of Automobile Tax
The piece argues the three percent federal automobile tax is a wartime levy on transportation and should be repealed now that the war is long past. It criticizes President Coolidge for backing continued collection, noting car owners already pay multiple taxes and that the annual $75 million toll is undue when the government runs a large surplus. It cites rising commercial failures and Iowa bank closures as signs of uneasy prosperity as Congress plans a short session ending March 4.

The Del-Mar-Va Eastern Shore Association promotes a Peninsula wide campaign urging Chambers of Commerce to favor home grown products. The program seeks to place quality regional goods in local markets to deter outside competition, help growers and merchants profit, and reduce consumer prices by cutting long freight costs. The plan urges farmers to offer select goods and stores to give fair prices and proper display. Also noted are train connections from Norfolk and Cape Charles to facilitate travel for Peninsula residents and visitors. Delaware reports 94 miles of road built that year including concrete and asphalt projects.
