Dewey backs permanent emergency gas tax in budget plan
Governor Thomas E Dewey urged making the emergency gas tax permanent as part of the Executive Budget submission to the Legislature. He warned emergency levies tend to endure and never fall, while noting the budget totals about 871 million dollars pre adjustments and 642 million actual against 555 million spent last year. He warned tax cuts and postwar relief must be weighed against the state’s finances and cautioned communities to fund their own needs as aid debt from prior wartime measures winds down.
