State Gas Tax Revenue to Drop By 20 Per Cent BOISE, Dec. 18, A 20 per cent drop in 1942 Idaho highway revenues from last figure of $5,062,494 was predicted by T.

He based his figures for 1942 on the experience of eastern states which have been under gasoline rationing for several months. Ordinarily, he said, one million dollars is allocated to counties to i replace the revenue lost when the automobile license fee was cut to a flat $5, but now counties may lose part or all of that figure.

The state's highway revenue comes from a five cents per gallon tax on gasoline. Three Convicted In Fraud Case SALT LAKE CITY, Dec. 18.
