U. N. Myers, of Myers Oil Co. was elected Chairman of the local com mittee of oil men. H. F. Speaks, of Speaks Oil Co., Was named vice-chair man, and Austin Shebeen, of Shebeen Oil Co., was elected secretary. Those attending were oil men, garage- op erators, and antomoblle dealers. They adopted a seven-point program which included, in addition to the proposed constitutional amendment— 1. Advocate fair taxation of motor fnel; 2. Urge highway fund protect ion through constitutional amend ment; 3. Foster sound highway plan ning; 4. End discriminatory license taxes5. Detection and elimination of gasoline tax evasion; 6. Advocate repeal federal tax on gasoline and lubricating oils; 7. Urge reduction of Inspection fees. Mr.-Jr T. Melton, executive secre tary Of the South Carolina Petrolebm Industries Committee asserted that the proposal to urge safeguarding the highway funda of the state la sound and of equal importance to everyone to the state of South Carolina. It is essential that the state of South Carolina have a sound and sen sible highway improvement program. The special f^ and taxes levied up on motor vehicle operators on top of and in addition to, their general tax es, were originated and designed to measure and assess upon each user of the highways his equitable share of the cost of maintaining and im proving the roads and highways of general use. In alj fairness, there fore. the revenues from these special highway assessments should be ap plied in their" entirety to hi^way purposes. The oil men attending the meeting adopted a strong resolution urging that the revennea derived from these special motorist levies bs nsed ex clusively for highway purposes. Resotutton Antl-Olverslon Constitutional Amend ment Whereas: The revenue of the South Carolina Highway Department is made up of monies other than gas taxes, which monies can be diverted; and Whereas: Our State Supreme Court has said that gas taxes can not be diverted for the protection of the bond holders and whereas the bond ed Indebtedness of the Highway De partment should be reduced at the earliest possible date; and Whereas: All special highway user taxes originally were levied, and same have continued to be imposed, in Sonth Carolina to finance roads, therefore be H Resolved: By the Kershaw Conuty Petroleum Industries Oommlttss that the General Aasembly shonM grant the citisena of South Cartdlna the privilege of voting on a conatitntion- al amendment to prevent the use of highway naer tax revenues for pur poses other than roads.
