Kennedy Urges Regulation of Billboards on Highways
President Kennedy urged stronger billboard controls on new highways. He warned states may face federal rules or a billboard tax if they fail to act and called for doubling the current incentive to regulate. Maryland is the only state qualified under the present program, with a deadline extended to June 30 1965. The incentive currently offers an extra federal contribution of one eighth of one percent toward road costs, atop the standard ninety percent.

Kennedy Road Plan Seeks Heavier Truck Tax
President Kennedy asked Congress to finance a nationwide expressway network by shifting more cost onto heavy trucks. The plan would raise taxes on trucks, diesel fuel, tires, tubes, and retread rubber, while avoiding a general gasoline tax increase. If Congress rejects higher truck levies, a rise in gasoline taxes for all users is possible. The proposal aims to finish 41,000 miles of roads by 1972, reducing stops and travel time but risks funding shortfalls without new revenues.
