LETTER FROM YOUR .....
MAILMAN
Dear Patron:
We letter carriers who
automobiles have often
ed the hazard;? of our
tion, especially those raised
the presence of little
gathering around our cars
we are delivering mail into
boxes — especially now
school vacation is here.
Often we look up from
work to see a previously un
noticed youngster standing be
tween our car and the box
or perilously near in front
us. Since our motor is
running, we usually take
car out of gear, but if we
got and one’s foot slipped
the clutch (Which is likely be
cause we have to lean and
out of the car) the hazard
comes real. If on a grade,
is additional danger of slack¬
ening the pressure on the
pedal.
We feel that up to date we
have been very lucky. But, it
has happened that a child was
injured on a carrier’s route. We
don’t w’ant this to happen to
any child on our routes.
One of our most pleasant du¬
ties is accepting the first letter
a youngster writes and bring¬
ing him a premium for his first
box top. if he stands back of
the box, there is no danger
whatever, and two children if
not scuffling are little worry;
but three or more constitute a
dangerous situation.
We find that the lanes off
the main highways are where
the children most often play and
leave their play to get the mail.
So, 'we are addressing this letter
not only to parents, hut to
neighbors that may be ac¬
quainted with the children in
the vicinity to the end that to¬
gether we may lessen the risk of
a deplorable accident.
Yours for the safety of child¬
ren,
Your Letter Carrier
ROAD BILL HITS .........
GEORGIA CAR OWNERS
If you’re a Georgia car own¬
er, your tax contribution to
Uncle Sam just went up $6.42 a
year.
That’s the increase on each
light-weight passenger car in
federal automotive excise taxes
to help finance expansion of the
interstate highway system.
Bad? Maybe—but it may make
you feel better to learn what
what the Georgia trucker
going to pay.
Figures released by the Geor¬
gia Motor Trucking
tion, Inc., show that the typical
Georgia , tractor-trailer
with four axles, has an increas¬
ed tax burden of $375.55—more
than 55 times as big a boost as
yours!
Here’s the picture:
The owner of a typical late-
model car in the low-priced
field must pay an increased tire
tax amounting to 66 cents a year
and a gasoline tax boost of $5.76
for the average annual opera¬
tion.
A 2 percent increase in the tax
on the purchase price of the
tractor and trailer amounts to
$52.85 a year. The 3 percent hike
in tire tax figures out at $46.20
and the cent-a-gallon fuel boost
coosts the trucker $162.50 a year
On top of that, the trucker must
pay a special fee of $1.50 per
1,000 pounds for the entire
weight of any truck that
more than 26,000 pounds
ed. That’s another $96 for
Georgia trucker.
Total annual federal tax
the auto now will amount
