debated that question as stock prices enjoved an almost uninterrupted surge upward during a two-week period. The chart above, based on an index of 100 representative securities listed on the N. Y. Stock Exchange, shows vividly how the black “price line” wriggled steadily but slowly upward starting in early spring, then zoomed dizzily and sen-

sationally to new highs between June 18 and July 2.

From 91 at the

beginning of April, a peak of 102 was reached at the start of July. The short vertical lines at the bottom of the chart, representing daily sales in millions, also show the sudden skyrocketing effect of the bull

GAS TAXES DOUBLE 1929 COLLECTIONS

In- |

Institute Deplores creases by States.

NEW YORK, July 11 (U. P).— Motorists and others who used the nation’s highways in the year ended June 30, paid 980 millions in taxes for the privilege, the American Petroleum Institute industries committee announced today. This was a gain of more than 100 per cent since 1929, according to the Institute. “Ten states increased their gasoline taxes from 1933 to 1937 and because of this 365,000 automobiles remained unsold, millions of dollars worth of potential business failed to materialize and job opportunities were completely lost to thousands of unemployed,” the Institute said. Analyzing registration trends, the Institute found that since 1933 car ownership gained 20.1 per cent in those states which increased their taxes. However, in the other states the registrations increased 26.1 per cent on the average, thereby making the gain 30 per cent greater in those states not changing their taxes. Had registrations in the 10 in-creased-tax states kept pace with the other 38, 365000 more cars

would have been sold, amounting to |

250 millions more business, the Institute said.
