Wisconsin Farm Bureau cites big toll from gasoline tax
The Wisconsin Farm Bureau says a bill to repeal the gasoline tax exemption on farm tractors could cost farmers nearly seven million dollars yearly. From 1957 December to 1958 November farmers filed 195 967 exemption claims totaling 6 973 843 82 dollars. Farm Bureau director William Kasakaitas argues the nonhighway use of fuel does not relate to highway costs and calls the tax inequitable.
