Gasoline tax debate voiced by Iowa legislator Patterson

The letter to the Algona Republican outlines G. W. Patterson’s opposition to a state gasoline tax. He argues a sales tax on fuel burdens farmers and rural roads, cites his 1922 use of 1240 gallons, and suggests using primary and secondary road funds under county control instead. He warns taxation should target county and township roads if enacted.
