Gasoline tax initiative circulated in Montana
The Helena measure proposes a one cent gasoline tax increase with all revenue to go to the State Highway Commission for matching federal aid and highway construction. It aims to raise about twenty two million dollars over 11 years, enable Montana to match nearly fifteen million dollars in federal aid, and complete 4700 miles of federal aid highway by 1937. The Montana Automobile Association leads signature gathering with a target of 13,924 signatures by April 30.
