Governor Kohler urged a two cent per gallon increase in the state motor fuel tax to raise about 20 million dollars annually for highways and safety. He tied any tax rise to strong driver licensing and uniform traffic law enforcement on rural highways, and called for higher diesel taxes and truck fees.
