Ten Mile Tax Urged By Lausche
Governor Frank J. Lausche urged a ten mile tax on trucks and warned against higher license fees proposed by the Ohio Program Commission. He argued the plan would not deter out of state truckers and could let Ohio truckers buy licenses elsewhere. The commission sought higher license fees, gasoline and diesel taxes to fund highway construction, a shift Lausche opposed.
